Re: NRA Natl Meeting 2013, HOUSTON

Hubby, youngest, her "sweety" and I were there from about 10AM until after 3PM. We had a ball! YES it was crowded! However, for the most part everyone was very pleasant. I can now go to the grocery store and load my groceries and support the 2A proudly as I have a jillion reusable shopping bags!

We made a nice donation to the Wall of Guns, and it was fun to watch the guys win that won; however it would have been more fun to win :biggrinjester:

Only saw one other forum member - or I should say she saw me! I was on a mission looking for a working ATM as the troops were hungry and I forgot to get cash in advance and wasn't sure if they took my card. I hear someone say "Ma'am are you a forum member?" I was a little confused at first and felt really "smart" when I finally clicked as to what she was asking. Nice to meet and chat with TexasGal for a bit - thanks for being an eagle eye - it is always fun to put a face with a name.

There was so much to see and touch and look at. I tried to watch for the TFC badges, and wondered if some of the twisted ones weren't ones that had turned around, I figured that there had to be more of us there. I even ran into a few students, LOL! The looks on their faces was pretty priceless, I swear they think I live at school.

Hope everyone else had a great time as well. Understand they will be back in 7 years. My legs may have recovered by then! And I have to admit one of my favorite things was the sign for AirForce "Protect your Nuts"

My favorite thing to "touch" was the UTS-15 a double mag tube 15 shot shotgun with the mag tubes on top, barrel in the middle, and light underneath. It is a "bull-pup" configuration if you will, so light and felt really manageable. Very intriguing! I also VERY much liked the takedown 45/70 lever action by Wild West Guns. A thing of beauty, and a trigger to lust over. SOOO many nifty things!!! My wish list grew exponentially!

Re: NRA Natl Meeting 2013, HOUSTON

:biggrinjester: OK, we are going tomorrow, I had to laugh. As I was reading this threads folks were staying just a few hours. I see "Shiny" saying there ALL day I love it! I think there will be a lot of shiny to hold my interest tomorrow! Looking forward to it. If you us with our TFC badges showing you will likely have to get my attention because with all that shiny I will likely have "divided attention". :mrgreen:
