Recently we spent a fun family night down at the indoor range with some good friends.
Our task: to clean our AR-15 rifles so they are ready for the upcoming High Power season.

They younger kids spent the evening sorting match pins for our Shooting Coach. They were challenged to find a pin from each match over the last 30 years....yes, they were kept busy for hours!

The rest of us learned how to take apart, thoroughly clean, and reassemble
an AR-15.

Thankfully, we had the help of a National Guardsman highly trained in such an endeavor. (He can disassemble and reassemble one in less than 2 minutes-blindfolded!)

The rifle was carefully taken apart and each part carefully cleaned. They were pretty dirty so it took quite awhile!

We were grateful for the expertise of those who had done it many, many times.

We learned a lot and had a ton of fun!

And now our rifles are clean and ready to compete!!

The evening ended with the presentation of medals from a recent match. What a fun night!
Hurrah for everyone! Looks like quite an intense evening for everyone! I love the last pictures!!
