    Grand Rapids Area Appleseed

    By popular demand, you westsiders now have the opportunity of attending an Appleseed close to Grand Rapids. Date is August 15/16, Location is the Caladonia Sportsman's Club just south east of GR. Should be good time as our first Appleseed in Kent County.

    Put it on your calender now....

    I've heard of this before but never actually looked into WHAT it was about. I'm over on the Appleseed page now reading. This does sound like fun.

    So this is done with rifles only? Do you know if they allow one to carry a handgun while there even though it's not being shot? Just because I'd be carrying one, just because.

    Yes, rifles only. While we are all gun guys our insurance carrier does not allow handguns to be carried on the line by students during an event.

    Be that as it may, Appleseed is a lot of fun and something everybody should try at least once.

    Going to try and make this one. I shot rifleman a few years ago. Should be interesting to see if the skills are still present.

    Might want to do some dry firing and boning up on the sling, transitions, positions etc. The skills do get rusty over time.

    And everybody spread the word. If we can make this one go, we are more likely to have more in the GR area.

    I'm in!
    No clause in the constitution could by any rule of construction be conceived to give congress a power to disarm the people. Such a flagitious attempt could only be made under some general pretence by a state legislature. But if in any blind pursuit of inordinate power, either should attempt it, this amendment may be appealed to as a restraint on both.

    It's great to hear from folks who are planning to attend! It's going to be a great weekend. If you have not signed up already, please do, so we know how many to prepare for. A pre-event email will go out tonight or tomorrow to folks who are registered.

    I hope to see you this weekend!
