December Appleseed at Black Creek

Took my son to the Black Creek range today.  When we went in to the office to sign in the fellow behind the range (not the owner, but a guy I'd not seen there before) was talking to a couple about the upcoming Appleseed.  After they'd signed in I asked about about the Appleseed and he told me there was going to be one the first weekend in December.

I already knew this from seeing the schedule earlier in the year but I thought it was great that somebody at the range was talking it up to the people visiting the range to shoot.
"The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles."

—Jeff Cooper, The Art of the Rifle

Yep, that's great Old Dog.

KC has been a good supporter of AS in VA since the first event there in 07 or so.
