Another "FREE" Ladies shooting opportunity... (BLGC Members)

Now, don't you fella's get discouraged that the ladies are getting all these free opportunities - it goes without saying that women are naturally better shots, so these opportunities will serve as your excuse... "well I would out-shoot you if I have all these free range days...!"  Buahahahaha - I couldn't keep a straight face...

In all seriousness - this is a GREAT way to try different calibers, and you get FREE ammo...  You cannot beat that...!

Any-who, here are the deets...!!

CANCELLED - IDPA Championship Gun Competition

Another fine example of not thinking about the consequences of their actions...

Reported today at www.thegatewaypundit.com, the Rocky Mountain Western States Regional IDPA championship gun competition scheduled for July 4-6 in Montrose, CO, has been cancelled due to the risk of law abiding gun owners being in violation of new gun laws.  This follows the cancellation of the Ruger Rimfire Challenge, which was also scheduled to be held in Colorado.  Competitors from around the world would have attended these events and brought much-needed $$$ to small Colorado communities in terms of tax revenue, a boost to hotels, restaurants, etc.

I wonder if the politician are NOW seeing the impact of the legislation they allowed - nah, can't give them that much credit...  ::heavy sigh:::

God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.
