Howdy folks!
Getting close..... to SHOT Show 2008.
And for you out there not attending, here is the place to be in a few days:
www.downrange.tv/shotshow2008 (http://www.downrange.tv/shotshow2008)
Videos, podcasts, press releases, all the good stuff from the floor.

Page Bookmarked.Patiently waiting for exciting news.
-
Me too. Maybe Michael can inquire about the Taurus models in Magnesium that were introduced on DRTV last year but never arrived. Been saving.. Thanks, Mac.
-
We're going to die...DIE, I tell you!
You know, I'd like to know what happened to that trick Taurus magnesium snub, too...I'll find out for both of us.
I'm really excited about the Ruger Saturday launch...you guys are gonna love this one! As I mentioned on the podcast, I have high hopes for the new S&W .44 Special snub...I'm looking forward to handing the STI Rogue 9mm 1911...again, high hopes. Bill Murphy has a signature fighting shotgun, and Bill is the best shotgun instructor in the company...can't wait to handle that one! You'll see the first reviews on DOWN RANGE (duh!). Am hopeful that the Masada will be a "real" reality...or that the FNH SCAR shows up in civilian semiauto garb.
Deep breath...almost time!

*I'm so self entertained I wonder about myself sometimes.. * ::) ;D

Magnesium guns ? I heard about them on the podcast, Sounds like a very expensive way to make a flare .
Need a fire in the woods you can take some shavings from the ejector shroud and start a fire, Excellant survival tool, Totally stupid idea. I make my own fire starters with this stuff.
-
I thought the same thing Tom. Maybe that's why there AREN'T any to try out. Anybody hear about Brazillian forest fires near the factory? And just how many is a Brazillian, anyway?? Waiting on your report, Michael. Mac.
-
:'( Sure wish I could be there. Enjoy the show, bring us back some
Goodys!!!!!!
Have a Great time

Marshal is gulping his "stand a spoon up in his cup" coffee and hammering on his computer with 4 days work to get done in one day ( today) and I am running around, packing, getting all the house stuff, animals, computer work, bookwork and all the other million odds and ends organized and done so that we can leave bright and early in the morning.
Michael, Marshal and I will try to put stuff up on the site every evening. Don't know what it will be, but I am sure some video's , pictures, posts.. :)
Our goal is to make you feel as much a part of the Shot Show as we can, since you can't be there.
I wish each and everyone of you could be there. It is nothing less than overwhelmingly awesome. But we will do our best to share it all with you.
Now where else, but Down Range, do you get people that care that much about their friends/members?
NO where I say! Just no where. ;D
Seriously.............We do care and that is why we are doing it. :-*
-
Have fun !
-
The DRTV SHOT Show section is live !!!
And Michael is sooooo ready.... see it for yourself !

Marshal & Marshal'ette,
We know y'all care and it shows! We, the community at DRTV really appreciate the tremendous amount of work that is put into our Home on the Internet. We hope that you have as much fun doing it as we do participating and rattling your chains ;D.
Not to get too sappy but I have really come to think of every one here as a friend (Yes, Clayflingythingy even you ;) ) and look forward to reading the posts here as it seems we (DRTV) have the cream of the crop in knowledgeable shooters as both admins (MB, M & M'ette) as well as regular contributers like Walt and Todd and the rest of that crew and I am constantly amazed at the depth of experience and knowledge from us "regular guys and girls".
I cannot thank y'all enough.
BARTENDER, a round of drinks for my friends! ;D ;D ;D

MB that is one slick outfit. You folks travel safely, have fun at the show and come back and show us all the goodies, we'll be here watin! :D

You guys are obviously demented! So, I guess I'm in the right place ;D

HEY! I resemble that remark! ;)

Hey MB,
How about some pictures and maybe an interview with Bruce Gray about the 10mm SIG? You know about the 10mm, right?
Curious,
George

Howdy folks!
Just so you know. We have started posting on the SHOT SHOW blog section: http://www.downrange.tv/shotshow2008/
Cameras are ready, microphones got new batteries and Vegas is squeezing as much dollars out of us as they possibly can. Cab drivers are taking us to the middle of nowhere instead of taking the shortest route and price gouching is the main activity. ;D ;D
-
Hey Marshal, Thats Vegas :) Thier mian industry is seperating suckers from thier money. But I bet it's still worth every penny !
-
Better hat, needs Press card in the band though.
Who Let Him out... (LOL) he is the #3 guy on Most wanted.... hehehehe...
Just had to do that... Must have been the Hat... ;D ;D

Hazcat,
Just noticed the link at the bottom of your home page. You shoot all them hogs, and where?
-
I have to apologize about all the editing poor Marshal had to do to this video!!!
I had "a moment"...screamed loudly (edited for G-Rated DRTV purposes), and then I had to go change my panties after seeing that little beauty gun.
It was freak'n awesome!!!!
-

Yeaaaaaaa.. you're right.. I guess it is a bit too mean of me to do that in BOTH areas..
Ok .. I'll start cooking again..(http://www.cascity.com/howard/animations/72.gif)

Yer right Haz, just lay me out next to that spotted hog on the right. Sorry, I panicked. Mac.

Hazcat,

Cookie,
The only hog that was ours was the black one shot by my 14 year old son at 25 yards with his 639, one shot behind the ear dropped him in his tracks! 205 lbs of GOOD EATIN'.
The other twoo belonged to a couple of other guys in our party.
Shoot him a Chappy's down nead Okeechobe.
