[Big Duke Six]

Well...... I couldn't bring up my whole gun safe....I'd have to go out and get a bunch more cable locks

It sure is plenty of "Cash"

Nice shot..Was the shooter shooting at Tannerite ?

Nice shot..Was the shooter shooting at Tannerite ?

Yes he was...Not sure if Ross hit it or was part of a group who did, but it looks pretty neat. I have another with no muzzle flash, but a better plume downrange, but I thought this one was neat...It's amazing that a phone takes multiple exposures.

Ahh,I thought it was the one guy taking a shot at the Tannerite.

I did not take part in the Tannerite buy, so I did not knowingly shoot at any Tannerite until the Grand Finale shoot, when I shot (along with everyone else) at the pumpkin on the right and at one on the left that I was told was fair game. If the timestamp on the picture shows it was nearly 4:00, then I was shooting at the Tannerite. I do remember the boom only being accompanied by one report... so it had to be me.

I like the effect of the faint orange glow in front of the muzzle.

At least in that picture I don't think that it was the shot making that muzzle flash that set the tannerite off. You can see the smoke from the tannerite was already 20-30 ft in the air and the muzzle blast was still happening. @ 2500 fps, the round is down range within .2 of a second, give or take during the muzzle blast. The smoke doesn't move at 2500 fps and so could not have risen to that level within the time of the muzzle blast.

None of this precludes 2 independent shots so I am not saying you didn't, just the pic is of one of those shots, not the one that set off the tannerite.

I'll post the series before this one when I get near high- speed again. It will be more apparent that Ross bagged a pumpkin sporting tannerite... It got my attention. I just posted this one cause it was cool...

Yup, I wasn't doubting it. Just that picture wasn't it. The new 3Gs makes great pics.

You make a good argument; there was so much Tannerite going off that it's entirely possible that the smoke is from someone else's shot. As I said, the timestamp might give a clue... but I can't seem to look at the photo's information on photobucket.

Grassy knoll.........You're wicked good at math!!!

Mass(Zapruder)Mark, awesome pics!!!

 

[Tara]

Awesome pics everyone! I need to upload Chucksters and post them.

 

[Burgermeister]

I'm glad to see that some the had luck/skill to get pictures of the Tannerite exploding. I tried, but my timing was off.

Anybody got anything else? I saw lots of cameras that day......


Ahhhhhhh, Orange Mist

 

[Fixxah]

I was wondering the same thing. Come on folks, post 'em.

 

[CRSIII]

I know MassMark is holding.

 

[PantherarmsAR10]

I know MassMark is holding.

Also Monadnock is holding out on us with those pics

 

[Monadnock]

Most of these are just "crowd" pictures. I figure that folks might want to see themselves.

Certainly not as exciting as as a muzzle-flash (wow, that cylinder and muzzle flash showing HardJeepGuy fire that revolver ... .406, .500? is simply awesome) or pumpkin-laden Tannerite explosions, but the static firearms and people's faces are interesting none-the-less.

Northeast Shooters' Pumpkin Blast November 7, 2009 at the Monadnock Rod & Gun Club.


PAntherArmsAR10 and ATMay (fresh out of his tent) help out in the crisp free New Hampshire air.

...calm before the storm:

..and so wraps up the first MRGCI-NES Pumpkin Blast

 

[T3andme]

Nice!

 

[Nicole]

Thanks Monadnock, there's some great shots in there.

 

[namedpipes]

I imagine there were some pumpkins left over.

I'm just trying to picture the look on the face of the MRGC members that went to shoot the next few days, to find massive piles of pumpkins downrange...

"What the MEEP happened here?!"

 

[Burgermeister]

More great pics. Thanks, Monadnock.

 

[MARINE96]

Great pics. My ugly mug was in a few of them.

Here's the link to the pics I took. If it doesn't work, Tara will fix it.

Nearly 2 weeks later, and I'm still beaming from looking at the good times that were had. Excellent pictures everyone!

 

[dwarven1]

OK, I gotta call BS on this - all those guns and all those people - children, even! And NO ONE got shot!! Why, it's almost as though all the attendees were responsible adults, or under responsible adult supervision! And no one even raised a voice!!

Somewhere, I just KNOW that Paul Helmke and John Rosenthal are screaming in frustration. And it makes me smile...

I broke a finger nail if it makes you feel better

 

[JuergenG]

Did you call a Whaaaambulance to get it treated ?

Sent you a PM some weeks ago. Please check, whether you got it
and lemme know, if interested.
