It was a fine day we had, and thanks to Jay for arranging it.
Saw a couple vintage, elegantly-styled, hammer guns in action breaking clays with an aplomb that belied the age of weapons that a generation ago the conventional wisdom said were no longer good for anything but wall ornamentation.
Seeing Chuck B. reach out and bust the high and/or far-away variety of targets was a convincing vindication of the effectuality of Parker’s 28-gauge guns.
Not only was the shoot worth participating in; it was worth GOING to participate in. Kathy G. and I came down a day early and soaked up some of the regional atmosphere of the West side of Narransett Bay. I, a life-long New Englander, have had scant exposure to those Ocean State resort towns, historic villages, and sea food restaurants. We recommend the Sugar Loaf Bed & Breakfast in town, too. Our hosts were very congenial, and figuratively and literally went the extra mile: The proprietress insisted on GUIDING us over to the Peace Dale Shooting preserve!
