No, not Bill Cadwell's! Bills Gun Shop in Circle Pines. I am sure there will be many more posts with pictures compliments of Brian K. It was a LOT of fun seeing everyone!

WHAT??? I CANNOT HEAR YOU!!!!!!!!!!!

Quite a cannon to say the least! Actually I thought it would be more of a handful than it was. I think the porting and heavy frame took a lot of the bite out of it. Quite impressive to say the least! $2.50 per shell! Seriously! We had to move the targets back because we were afraid the muzzle blast would start a fire!

Yeah, I can't say enough thanks to all of those that helped the wife and I tonight, Big thanks to Jon Jordan for the instruction and letting us shoot his guns This was way more fun than I ever expected it to be, We've figured out which gun were going to buy, and I can't wait to get some more range time in. Big time thanks to the IDA staff that made it happen and made it sucessful.

The .50 cal was pretty cool, I can't believe I actually shot it, today being the first time I've ever shot a handgun.

A HUGE thanks to Brian K for setting it up, and to the Staff at Bill's for putting up with Brian! Or was it the other way around?
When the pictures start showing up, we will move this post over to the Shooters Forum.

It was a heckuva lot of fun shooting tonight and meeting new faces. A big thanks to Brian for organizing.
Also thanks to Chris and Jon for sharing their firearms! It was a lot of fun trying out different guns! And educational!

First time shooting the new sighting system...I was a little nervous with everyone watching and you sure could tell it in the steadyness...or lack of steadiness with the dot bouncing all over!
