Second Amendment Day #2
News, Guns ·Saturday April 4, 2009 @ 19:08 EDT (link)
It was a beautiful sunny day for shooting with the Microsoft gun group (not the Gun Club, just a group organized via an internal e-mail list about guns). This was our second "Second Amendment Day" celebration. A good time was had by all, everyone was safe, and plenty of ammunition was expended and targets destroyed.
We left around 1130, got to the pit in Sultan at around noon, firing lines were set up (with bright orange tape), targets placed, ear protection installed, and firing commenced. Had a great time; got to meet some people in person that I'd only communicated with via the mailing list. Two other people from Word were there (developer SI and tester DP… no representative from program management). Note that this was around tax time and we'd just finished our taxes, so I brought the 1040 instruction booklet for some catharsis (middle, top).
This is only the second time I had the AR-15 out (Honey is shooting it in the bottom of the first set of photos, I'm shooting it in the last photo—thanks Stoyan for taking the picture—and Stoyan is shooting it above me; Drew also shot with it, but in the photo he's shooting a different rifle). It was a lot of fun to shoot, and it eats cheap Wolf ammo just fine (of course I cleaned it afterward). DM's video of the "all-out assault" at the end.
