Army Strong

Picture by Tom

The Army Pistol Team was a big presence at the Nationals in Missoula. Not big physically as you can tell by the guy on the right who can put his headphones around his waist. The back of their jersey has a big "Army Strong" on it. These two were shooting Open Class, and Max on the left won the whole thing.

Here's Max showing us his "Load and Make Ready" routine. These guys shoot fast but as a squad they are slow.
The guy on the far right writes books and was doing a DVD while he was shooting. He would set up a camera in the field and one or two others. He was mic'd for sound and had a hoser-cam in his hat. So he was acting, directing, and shooting good enough to get 4th in Open and high international shooter. He even blogged it.

Unfortunately, the Limited-10 supersquad was shooting at the same time as we were and on the opposite end of the range. Well, we'll just have to go back then.
