Big thanks to srothstein for organizing this. I think uptheirons may regret coming, I think he added at least one gun to his to buy list!

Yeah. THANKS A LOT, Estand, for costing me a S&W M&P 15-22!!

And thanks for letting me try the AR-10, too. The look on my son's face after he ran that 15-22 is totally worth all the cans I'll need to pick up on the side of the road to help pay for that new rifle.
And you, too, 74novaman, for the AK variants and Marlin .357 lever gun.
And ELB for the go-round with the Romy AK and Hi-Power.
And SewTexas for the chance to try the LCP (especially for getting it back out after y'all already put it away!).
And for srothstein for organizing a great outing and for leaving the NAA Guardian out for me to test drive.
I have one of the coolers from today, and I'll restock it for our next meet. October sounds like a winner. Today did hit 104, after all. I just wish I had more time to socialize with more of y'all. Well, there's always next time.

Special thanks to ELB, who ran and got coolers full of ice and water so we didn't whither away out there.
I'll get pics of the new toy up later.

You're right, it is kind of impolite. But I can't give away all Chemist45's info. Besides, he's able to speak for himself, and I try to let him... sometimes a challenge - you know how difficult it can be to shut wives up.

I was only the errand boy. Stephan's idea, and he ponied up the largest donation. LikesShinyThings was true to her name by donating brand new one dollar coins.
It was fun, and glad folks got to try out some different shootin' arns.

Lol, yeah the face was pretty good! I hope you negotiate favorable "lease terms" on that rifle.
We had a great time & hopefully we will do it again when it cools off.

Very nice meeting everyone too! Next time I will only bring my oldest daughter so will be able to hit the range also. This time, the whole gang wanted to try the famous Kreuz's market, so no range time was possible.

Finally made that round TUIT I've been needing, and posted some pictures from the get together. I'm sorry for missing pictures of some of the folks - I got busy shooting and forgot to take pictures.
This should lead you to the first picture in the album. Have fun from there:
