Holy crap, what a GLORIOUS DAY! I was going to type out this huge commentary about the day, but PMB summed it up quite nicely. Considering I basically stalked Mike the entire day, most of what he said is true... Most.
First off.. Thanks to all of you. These shoots only happens because of you, WaGuns is here, because of you. We thank you for helping us share this passion for the 2A.
Second - Chris, cdoniguian.. Seriously man. That taco soup is the reason people come to the NYD Shoot. It warmed me to my soul, more than once, but once less than PMB.
Third - Thank to Mike, Amy, Dave, Tim and the SLEW of others who brought food, supplies and liquid to help us make it through this epic day.
Fourth - I am speaking for all the ladies there, and tlang, but thanks Kurt for the warming hut. It was great to take the edge off.
Fifth - Brandon, Pineapple.. Your RSO skills are amazing. We had SEVENTY people there and you worked that line and still managed to do some impressive mag dumps.
I met a lot of members who I had never met, and re-met some I had not seen in a long while. For me, thats what this event is about. I shot a few things, but really enjoyed watching others shoot.
Now, onto the photos. I'll name off who I recognize in my extremely delirious state.
