He linked to me, I’ll link back: A Rock In A Sea of Chaos.
A gun guy and blogger right here in Austin.
Some time ago, TXGunGeek and I tossed around the idea of having a Texas blogger gathering/shoot. It never came to pass since we’re both way too busy. But geez there are a lot of such types, so it would be cool to have such a thing one of these days.
Thanks for the link!
Southern Belle is Organizing a Central TX blogshoot at the range in Lockhart. Might be worth piggybacking on their efforts:

Oh, and there are a LOT more shooters in Austin than most people think. Me and a co-worker and constantly uncovering more of them and getting them involved in open discussions. Trying not to keep gun-nuttyness ‘underground’
Ah! well, can’t make that shoot. I commented tho. We’ll see what happens in the future.
And yes, there are a lot more gun people in Austin than people want to admit. The reality is, look at how much gun business there is in town. Shops like Tex-Guns, McBrides, Heritage, even Cabela’s and Academy and such…. shooting ranges like Red’s, Lone Star (Lockhart), Austin Rifle Club, Best of the West, Eagle Peak…. and the list can go on. There’s a lot more around… just not as open, and certainly a higher ratio of “anti’s” than say, out in Brazos or Lee County. 🙂
speaking of gun related gatherings. You going to the LaRue range day this weekend? 😀
Nope. Got a bunch of other things that require my time this weekend. 😦
I’m still jealous of ShoothouseBarbie winning the OBR last year: 🙂
