Somewhere back in the thread, crak said that Pat would be there running the grill. If nothing's changed, prices are cheap and proceeds support the junior team.
I thought there would be a higher round count by the end of the day, but a lot of time was well spent on covering positions and using the sling. Turns out the sling really IS good for more than carrying the rifle on your back.
Man, I don't know crap about shooting...
I learned a LOT - and am very thankful for it. Nice to meet everyone. Was a privilege to meet Fred. He's damn right that the answer is changing the hearts and minds of the American People.
See you tomorrow!

Fred? as in "Fred's Guide to Becoming a Rifleman" Fred?
Yep.Fred? as in "Fred's Guide to Becoming a Rifleman" Fred?
It's a privilege to have the founder choose to come to "our" Appleseed.If you guys think you learned from Fred today, I can best that.... my first Appleseed as an IIT (instructor in training) and most of it under it the direct tutelage of the great man himself.
Doh, does that mean we're doing it tomorrow .I'm hoping for more rapid fire aqt's myself, but I finally got a chance to check my notes and I'm finally seeing where the 8 and 2 thing is coming from.
I'm on the right in the 1st pic sitting with the beard, grey shirt, and Kiver's awesome Molon Labe NES baseball hat. And in the middle of the 5th pic with the green ear protection....so speak up if I caught you on camera!
LOL... No sweat, buddy. I had fun.GK - sorry about the brass!
Yeah, Fred's great. He makes really good speaches.
. . . I cannot for the life of me keep everyone straight and am much more likely to remember your life story than your name anyway, so speak up if I caught you on camera! . . .

I thought I was only going there to learn something about how to shoot, but it's that history lesson that I think I'll remember most.

I was really looking forward to today, but unfortunately got called into work and that's where I'm at now waiting for a vendor to show up. Sometimes I REALLY hate working in IT.
Oh man, that's a huge bummer! Yes, IT definitely sucks sometimes [sad2]
On the upside, it's better that it happened today instead of yesterday. You learned all of the fundamentals on day 1. Day 2 is all about applying what you've learned, which you can also do on your own. I have some AQT targets I can send out to you if you want to practice at your local 25yd range. I figure if you can score 220 at 25 yds, then you should have no problem doing 200+ at 25m. Then, sign yourself up for one of the Sunday sessions at Proctor, VT (next one is 5/17) and go qualify for your Rifleman patch.
