Independence Day (A Few Days Late)

Barbecue and gunfire at Jonestown today. It was a fairly light expedition this go-around, as I only took four items out of the small-arms locker. No fireworks, but lots of gunsmoke and spent brass.

There was also a fairly new shooter present, which is always fun. We ran the basic safety stuff and the general rules of operating the AK and the M-16. The 870 and the 1911 got their moments in the sun, and our hapless target was summarily dispatched.

Things to ponder:

- I need more earplugs

- I need more magazines

- I need more buckshot

- I need more targets

- Shooting stuff is fun

- Shooting with friends is better

- Milsurps and riot guns are natural enemies of plywood

Good times all around.
