Eatin' Out at the NRA Convention...

No, this isn't another dig at the Primanti Bros, but a round-up of cool stuff going on at the NRA convention.

  • Thursday night there's the aforementioned soirĂ©e with Unc at the Radisson Hotel starting at 8PM. Since that's my hotel as well, I'll be there hoisting a cold one (or three) until they kick us out (can you say afterparty? I thought so).
  • Friday night there's a "Happy Hour" (illegal in MA, I kid you not) hosted by the good folks at Crimson Trace at the Tilted Kilt starting at 6:00 PM.
  • Saturday is chock-full of events to attend, some are private/invitation only (if you have to ask...)
  • And Sunday there's a special brunch - give me a shout if you're interested in getting together with one of the big names in the business for a late breakfast/early lunch/brunch get-together.
And, of course, the main event. No, I don't mean the acres upon acres of way-cool gun schwag and new and exciting products (yay! Gun pr0n for months!). I mean, of course, the three whole days of meeting up with old friends and new - getting to meet more folks from the gun-blogging community. I know there's at least a dozen new folks that I know are going, and I'm sure countless more. There's a number of folks I met last year who will be back - including Dennis and Weer'd, my co-pilot and navigator for the long trip out.

It's gonna be a great time - hope to see you there!

That is all.

Danielle and I would definitely be down for it.

I'm definitely up for brunch on Sunday - just let me know the details tonight!

My wife is going to be tagging along tonight - wants to see if the people I talk to online actually exist and aren't really just figments of my imagination...

Looking forward to seeing all of you.

I'll be there Friday and Saturday only, as I'll be covering for a Reservist on Sunday.

UPDATE: Meet at the NRA Press office at noon on Sunday. Will figure out details then.
