Thanks.

In addition to the gun handling and marksmanship principles of the Vickers Shooting Method, this class will also have some very specific information regarding history, variants, and terminal ballistics. While "the Russian method" of employment may be touched upon, students will learn and apply the Vickers Method.

[Jay Cunningham]

Five guys confirmed in this class so far - there's plenty of room!

The forecast for Saturday is 27 degrees, clouds but no snow - not too bad all things considered!

[orionz06]

Kinda lame, I was hoping for a bunch of snow.

It's not -10F, but it at least gives it the flavor of The Motherland.

Big Talk!!!
