Someone left a rifle at the range on Sunday. PM me if you can't find your favorite smokepole.


I'll finish the AAR after work tonight...

I'll chime in until our shoot boss finished searing the pig flesh tonight. We had a beautiful NC February weekend ,Sunday was T-shirt weather Like All the Appleseeds I've worked I'm impressed at the caliber of folks that attend , they want to be there and drink from the fire hose of information that we put out. We had Air Force ROTC students there that performed out standing, thank you Paul for bring them out. Sunday they were up on the 500 yard line shooting our Garands, ARs and other rifles that we had and buy the results they must have paid attention. One student was shooting very well out to 400 yards, I wish we had more ammo that we could turn them loose with. Seeing those Fathers and sons, ROTC cadets and complete family's restores my faith in our country.

To all the Appleseed volunteers, THANK YOU!

My son and I attended the event this weekend at Ramseur.  We have not stopped talking about it yet.  The rest of the family keeps trying to inject a change in subject matter but I don't think it will happen this month!!!

I learned so much this weekend and I got a chance to see my son be inspired.  I have to specifically thank Lawrence.  He left a real impression on Josh with the dangerous old men stories and when Josh was able to tighten up those shot groups using the peep sights, his enthusiasm grew by leaps and bounds.  All of the Appleseed volunteers were awesome.  I can't thank you enough for your patience, instruction, and inspiration.

Much gratitude,
