Mock, I can not apologize enough for not “being there” Saturday, but I knew you were in good hands. I am very happy to see you and Mr. Mock had a good time, and I hope I get to spend some range time with you both in the future.

Our big splash is Patriot’s Day each year, the anniversary of Lexington and Concord. Next year that will be the weekend of April 17th and 18th. We strive to have as many Americans on the line across the country as possible. The Chicks could not pick a better weekend to attend, plenty of time to plan…

GCB, wish no more…. Get on the board and see what you can do to make a Canadian Appleseed happen.

All we ask is bring a teachable attitude. Very often, female humans arrive with a better teachable attitude than male humans. Also, a complete neophyte does not have to unlearn incorrect shooting habits.

Even though there are always loaner rifles available at the events, we would like for you to bring your own rifle so that you can become intimate with it. A .22 LTR (Liberty Teaching Rifle), such as a Ruger 10-22, is fine for learning. Soon you will gaze lustfully on the M1’s and M1A’s and AR’s on the line. As a rifleman, you will need to be skilled with your own center fire rifle.

We are exceptionally pleased that you came and enjoyed your first Appleseed. It usually takes an attendee 2 to 4 events to shoot a score of 210 or better to earn their Rifleman’s badge. Plan for
future events now. See the schedule at:

http://www.appleseedinfo.org/

Remember, Women (adult female humans), children (under 21), active duty military, and elected officials shoot free. All instructors are 100% volunteer. Most do not even ask for reimbursement of expenses.

Thank you for stepping up to improve your skills and to help our country.

Thank you for the kind words and thank you for coming out. It was a pleasure to have you and all the shooters that ventured out on what was a chilly morning start to a beautiful day… I hope to see you again on the trail and if I don’t, I know that you will be back to another Appleseed event. This weekend continued on and we did get a Rifleman score Sunday afternoon. Nick (the AR a couple places down from you) made a 220. Jason was also close.

Sincerely – WRWIII

Women have a reputation for being quick to pick up target shooting. Seriously. A marine told me that and I’m not about to argue with him about it.

This sounds very cool, and I wish we had something like this up here in Canada. Unfortunately, with our gun laws being what they are (mandatory registration of all guns, you need to be licensed even to *borrow* a gun or buy ammunition), that’s not going to happen any time soon.

It is in California! We have Appleseed shoots all over the country, now. Appleseedinfo.org, and look for the ’schedule’ link on the side bar.

While I have been handling rifles, shot guns, and hand guns my whole life, I really wouldn’t mind seeing this project come to California. I would participate.

I’m already shopping for a Chicklet Glock to match her Mommy’s.
