Damascus Show 2003 - Page 2
And then .... In strode ....... "The
Contender!"
He wasted no time pranging ducks on
the wing...
He claimed he could handle "The
Hoss" offhand!
And ... By Golly! ... the crowd went
nuts when he did! That wooden apple splintered and flew in every
direction. Fine shootin' Son.
The "Contender" and his Dad.
Quality Time!
The folks enjoyed the V-Twin 45 Prototype
which was set up for any to try out. We were shooting round ball
with the V-Twin running off 1,700 psi. An identical 4X Simmons
shotgun scope made for easy eye position and target acquisition.

A few asked for targets on the 30 yard
backer. Here's their three standard round ball groups.
Some pounded the hanging cans @50 yards
(which we couldn't take a pic of from 50 yards away...)
We had blocks of 1" hard yellow
treated pine set up. The rifle and Pistol just "Paper Punched"
them!
Here's the punched block and the flattened
ball splat from the steel knock over groundhog
The Prairie @ 50
Quite a few of the rifle and pistol
blocks looked like this one!
Bill says his apple goes on the shelf
at home!
We had a great time. Thanks again to
all of you who came out. We shot quite alot of lead and splintered
quite alot of wood. The groundhogs all have terrible headaches
today but say they are ready for Standing Stone.
These "Bring 'Em and Shoot 'Em"
events are what my commercial show time is all about anymore.
The site shows you my work all year. I make it available for the
public to enjoy when the events arise, and always have a great
time sharing and watching folks smile. None of these people were
familiar with this rifle or pistol. Heck ... tell me how many
people are familiar with a 45 caliber Air pistol .. ;?) They walked
up, aimed, and smiled. The products are user friendly and worked
wonderful.
If you missed Damascus, you missed
a good time. Don't miss Standing Stone. The weekend of Sept. 20th.
