Gunz a Blazin' at the EIEIO - March 26, 2011

Whoa horsey! Wow what a day we just had. Although my feet are still cold I just HAD to tell you about this immediately. Norm said we were going to Brock's house so of course I made sure he took me with. Little did I know that I would be spending little time with Brock. Instead we are outside SHOOTING GUNZ!!!!



I SEE YOU!

 Norm told me I had to stay back and be the spotter.

They didn't know I am a certified specialist that can teach them a thing or three. If I could only figure out what they were saying.

They had all sorts of stuff.

The way they were talking about the names of the gunz I thought they were talking in Greek. All numbers & letters and gibberish about rate of fire. They were talking like little girls at a tea party.

What can I say? These two are supposed to be the "stable ones" out of the bunch. I didn't dare say anything that could get me shot. But I kept hearing banjo music...

Safety first! Always wear hearing protection.

Finally, gun powder in the air! This is Frank. He is one of Jason's buddies. He's kind of quiet. I think he was nervous around me, but it was our first meeting. Maybe he's just not as outgoing as me. But he can shoot!

Norm went inside for a minute so I pounced on my opportunity! This is Ed, Norm's youngest brother. Just giving him a few pointers. Ed's pretty cool. He thanked me and said he would buy me a beer later. Ah, tasty beverages...

Here's Norm III and his H&K P7M8 but its a 9mm (see what I mean? Gibberish! Gives me a headache). That's Frank behind Norm III. He already finished his magazine. But I didn't see him reading anything, just shooting the gun. I gave Norm III a couple of pointers too. He said he was going to give me a pointer if I didn't quit talking while he was shooting.

Sheesh, you would think it was golf or something.


The whole crew

Frank, Jason, Norm III, KC, Bob, Ed, Jim & Tony. You have to wonder how only 7 people (KC doesn't own a gun) could have 15 different gunz. Norm said they didn't bring all of them. These guys worry me.
Jim & Tony are Norm's other brothers. Just John was missing. Bob is a brother-in-law.

Eat your heart out Sly.

Don't ask me why Norm wore that goofy hat all day. You would have to ask him. Maybe he thought he was styling... Or maybe its to contain his ego.

KC & Joni. These girls are B.A.! (I don't know what that means but Norm III kept saying it and it sounded like they were really good.)  KC had 8 out of 8 center mass hits.

Joni shot 3 rounds. Two in the chest & one a bit low in the center. It hurt just looking at that target.

Do NOT make these girls angry, especially if they are armed!!!

We were having a great day...


UNTIL...

This was just before I got hit.



Norm said it was an accident. I figured it might have been an accident too. But when I heard him snickering I couldn't help it. I chased him down and BIT HIM!!


After I bit him he pummeled me.







Then he said we were done. I really didn't plan for it to go this way.








Luckily everyone else intervened and stopped this. Norm had to take a time out and I had to promise no more biting. We both apologized and shook hands. Then the sheriff's deputies left and the day finished on a high note.

We start anger management classes next week. Well that was our day. Talk to you soon!
