Diablo's Airgun FunDay

 by Bikerscum aka nice guy John Lindsey

Wasn't really sure what to expect today as I rolled off to the daiblo fun shoot. Being Memorial Day weekend, I could see everyone being busy at Disneyland, over at the inlaws, etc. Or everyone showing up 'cause they had the time off. Boy did we get the latter! It was literally standing room only as the day went on, with all of the shooting benches full. I don't know what the official tally was, but I'm guessing 25+. The usual suspects, as well as a lot of newcomers stopping in. I saw the hooks setting  There were all manner of things to shoot at.... paintballs, shaving creame cans, paper, swingers, little army men, bell targets.... you name it.

'Bout half way through the day, John L., our buddy from the knife throwing range next door came over with a problem. They had catered a feast for their hurlers & had WAY over bought.... fried chicken, mac salad, drinks, the works. I've never seen a group of airgunners vacate a building so fast lol. I think a couple got trampled.

'Course we had to get some knife folks over shooting airguns, including one lady shooting Greg T's Logun S-16. She was hitting a 25 yard bell target like Harold Rushton. Think there was a lot of cross interest 'tween the groups.

Sorry for the crappy pics.... my cell phone was doing odd things. Hope to see y'all next time...

Forgot his name, sorry, but he shot the exploding shaving cream target on his first try with his Condor... a 5/16" kill zone at 50 yards. Wow.
