Today (1/5) was the annual Phoenix Fun Shoot off of I-10 and Jackrabbit trail...it's usually a pretty decent sized crowd around 50 or so...but this year I think there must have been close to 150 people with all sorts of neat toys. Some guy even showed up in a helicopter and landed on site. There were several Browning M1919s on the firing line, quite a few M16s, assorted subguns (Uzis, MP5s, 9mm ARs), and some .50 BMG Rifles along with the standard mix of Sport Utility Rifles and surplus vintage military stuff. Lots of ammo was sent down range, and old appliances, lawn mowers and other reactive targets felt the hail of our gun fire. A good time was had by all, everyone acted safely and the shoot ended without incident.

Topcrest turns around and makes a goofy face when Garryowen yells something at him.

Gotta love this one...a kid with a M1919, a future gun owner in the making.
