Anyone going to the NRA 2014 meeting in Indy?
« on: March 28, 2014, 12:49:46 am »
I'm planning to attend the NRA meeting/convention this year for the first time. I just booked my flight and hotel reservation. Are any other WTA members going too?

    I might end up down there for work. I'd really like to go either way.

    If you wish for peace, prepare for war.

    A battalion commander of the 23rd Regiment 2nd Infantry Division reported during Operation Cobra, the long awaited breakout from St. Lo (July 1944):

    "I have no water, I have no chow, I have no batteries for my radio, I have no communication. My men are dead dog tired. I repeat, my men are dead dog tired. I have been given an order to attack. I am about to comply with this order. End of message."

    I'd like to because it's like an hour from my house, but we're having our fourth baby on or before April 3rd, so I don't know.

    I was reminded by the wife that is our wedding anniversary weekend, and so I will not be able.

    I'd be happy to meet you and any other WTAers that attend. This is a good pro freedom, gun loving community.

    See y'all there Saturday! I would assume the convention center has no prohibitions involving carry...

    I enjoyed the convention  and talked to people from other states. I attended a seminar by Rob Pincus and saw many cool guns. Here are some of my key observations. The ACR has good ergonomics. and the controls are well positioned

    The tavor has great balance.

    Smith PC revolvers have better triggers than stock.

    Jessie Duff looks good.
