The Blackout Project # 1

Today was another gun show. Senior and I meet up with Stephen and his SW, Rebel and Pirate Jim. Hanging out with Sweet Wife is always fun, she is a good friend and all around beautiful person. We held out our hands to our husbands for money, they obliged us with a smile. The men went to the right, and us ladies went to the left. It was time we had some "gurlie time" at the gun show.

 I like this one actually more then the one a couple of weeks ago. One thing I have noticed is husband and wife booths, on one end is the husband selling firearm accessories, and the other end is the wife selling home made items..today we found a nice Italian lady who made Beeswax candles, her husband was next to her selling Ammo cans.

Senior was on a mission, he is building a "300 AAC Blackout" he is tired of the traditional 5.56 and .308 calibers. So, now he is building a .308 caliber in a lightweight short AR style platform that provides hard hitting .30 caliber. 

Today he built the lower, all he needs now is the upper and it will be done.

  3. It was a good time down there. Rebel hit the spot with his secret restaurant, that omelet sure was good. Always great to attend functions like that with close friends.
