Sincere apologies for the long delay in getting these pictures posted. - MEP

The day was sunny and warm for the 126 shooters that came out to shoot 37 relays.

Everyone was rarin' to go at 0800!
This is what the line looked like outside.
Just waiting to get in.
As always, there are our pesky little adversaries.
Ready on the line!
Ready on the right!
Ready on the left!
Commence fire!

The "Capone Boys +1" pose for their semi-annual mugshot, I mean picture, at Camp Perry.
FoCP Trustee Marcia Hess tries her hand for the first time against the pop-ups with a scoped High Standard .22. Interesting back story, on her last shot, the pin that holds the barrel to the frame shattered and the barrel rolled of the front of the gun, onto the table and then onto the ground!
It's still intersting to walk the line and see what everyone is shooting.
Here's a soon to be junior shooter watching the action from behind the line with her dad.
Larry Dan keeps a watchful eye over his son as he tries to engage the targets for the first time!
Next magazine in hand and ready to go.
Speedloaders at the ready, this shooter is ready to shoot with his wheelgun!
