It isn't every day the NRA National Firearms Museum welcomes a special guest blogger. NRAblog was pleased to welcome Steve from The Firearm Blog, pictured at right with Assistant Curator Matthew Sharpe, to the Museum Wednesday for a brief tour.
"This is huge," Steve said of his tour. "The Museum is just so full of history. I'm really loving this...I can't even tell you how excited I am."
Steve, whose blog tagline is "firearms, not politics," has the following philosophy for his site: "I want (it) to appeal to a worldwide audience, so I focus on firearms and shooting rather than country-specific politics." While in Fairfax, he met with Ed Friedman of Shooting Illustrated and others in the NRA's Publications Division. "I'm here to meet anyone I can," he said.
Steve plans to make an appearance at the 2010 SHOT Show, his first. Below, Steve and Museum Director Jim Supica share a word about the Mayflower Gun, which graces the Museum's entrance.
Its one thing to get a private tour, but for the NRA to go out of their way to recognize Steve on their blog is a great complement. Congratulations Steve.
