I took my wife out to see Oblivion, not that I like Tom Cruise, but I do like science fiction. Tom did just fine as Jack (is that his new actor character - Jack?). Anyway, as I was waiting for my wife to get the medium popcorn and her Cola, I had a younger fellow (they are all younger now) telling me that my patches were cool. NRA Life Member and the RWVA ones.
We talked a bit about guns, there is a gun show in Puyallup this weekend he said, I told him I was going shooting instead. Something about I didn't have any money and I wasn't sure they would have anything I really had to have. But that got me to asking if he was a good shooter, how could he say not? He told me he was the son of a peace officer and had grown up with guns.
I told him I was an instructor with an organization that taught rifle marksmanship to 4 MOA, and that is a one inch square at twenty-five meters. Since my wife was trying to get me to take some of the food off her hands I gave him my card, and told him to look up Appleseed Project, we all need to make every shot count. His companion looked happy when I said that. I imagine I will get an email from him one day. Just for wearing my colors at the movie metroplex.
That's what we need Earl, more folks just willing to 'talk' rather than 'sell'... I'm betting he WILL look into it a probably will show up in the near future!
