Gunblogger Rendezvous – Round Up
A bunch of us gun nuts headed to Reno for a meet-up and some range time. A good time was had by all. The highlight of the rip for me was using Kevin‘s CMP Garand with mil-surp ammo to ping a steel plate at 400 yards with open sights. Woohoo. We did this at the Palomino Gun Club.
What others are saying:
While there, we all tried live-blogging over at Traction Control. But that didn’t last as we decided we’d rather chew the fat than pixels.
Rivrdog has a range report with some Mosin goodness.
Joe Huffman wraps up meeting the folks. And he has a picture that is destined to become a classic.
We got to hear Dan McKown speak. Dan, you may recall, is the guy who intervened when some nutjob was shooting up the Tacoma Mall. The nutjob’s plan was to go store to store (he had an AK clone and 600 rounds) shooting up the place. That plan ended when Dan confronted him. Dan took 5 rounds of 7.62X39 and is currently in a wheelchair.
Mr. Blasty is showing up all over. Here Mrs. Argghhh is plinking away with him.
Keewee is wrapping up the girly stuff from the event. Shopping? Why shop when there’s shooting and gambling to be done?
I’m anxiously awaiting to see what the Conservative UAW Guy and Neanderpundit say. Those dude’s are seriously funny.
Fodder rounds up the event and has some pics.
I won the door prize and got a really nice Brownell’s range bag.
