Irish Coffee. Good Anytime.

By From http://www.musingsoverapint.com/ • Nov 21st, 2012 • Category: Blog Entries.Local

We typically enjoy our Irish Coffee as an after dinner treat. But after spending time in Ireland, I’ve started wondering, why limit it to the end of the day? While I enjoyed a few evening coffees during the trip, I found I shouldn’t be so restrictive. …



Training with Steve Anderson

By From http://www.musingsoverapint.com/ • Nov 20th, 2012 • Category: Blog Entries.Local

I have a confession to make. I’ve owned Steve Anderson’s two dry fire training books, “Refinement and Repetition, Dry-fire Drills for Dramatic Improvement” and “Principles of Performance, Refinement and Repetition 2” for some t…



National Ammo Day

By From http://www.musingsoverapint.com/ • Nov 19th, 2012 • Category: Blog Entries.Local

As if you really needed an excuse, November 19 is National Ammo Day. This designation serves to remind the public that ammo purchasers are law-abiding citizens. It is also a signal to politicians that shooters are not a silent, nor a minority, segment …



Messrs Maguire, Dublin

By From http://www.musingsoverapint.com/ • Nov 19th, 2012 • Category: Blog Entries.Local

During our initial bus ride through Dublin I spied the Messrs Maguire sign through the window and tried to make mental note of where it was; a pointless endeavour at the time as I had no reference or knowledge of the city. Messrs Maguire…



A Treat From MSgt B

By From http://www.musingsoverapint.com/ • Nov 16th, 2012 • Category: Blog Entries.Local

My buddy MSgt B posted this video on his blog at “My Muse Shanked Me” and linked over to these Musings figuring I’d enjoy it. And I did. Thanks MSgt.

If you aren’t following the writings of MSgt B, you should do so. Go there, now.

Courtney’s Pub, Killarney, Ireland

By From http://www.musingsoverapint.com/ • Nov 15th, 2012 • Category: Blog Entries.Local

While strolling through Killarney one midday, we passed by Courtney’s Pub. In contrast to most of the pubs we passed by that afternoon, it sounded like quite a crowd was enjoying themselves inside. We decided to stop in and check it out. We made our wa…



The Sig-ness

By From http://www.musingsoverapint.com/ • Nov 14th, 2012 • Category: Blog Entries.Local

“Some say that it causes terrorists to explode on contact, and if dipped in holy water, the water evaporates. All we know is it’s called The Sig.”
— Caleb at Gun Nuts Media.

In a related matter, I came across this video recently and it made me…



They Grow Up Fast

By From http://www.musingsoverapint.com/ • Nov 14th, 2012 • Category: Blog Entries.Local

Time really does fly by! Sixteen years ago today Colleen woke me in the middle of the night with the words “Time to go.” (I’ll never forget that I had to stop for gas on the way to the hospital. But in my defense, the kid was a week early.)

It’s …

The weekend, on Veterans Day, I enjoyed another USPSA-style fun match held by King George Actions Shooters. Coincidently, their first USPSA fun match was held on another holiday, Labor Day. For those interested, keeping with the holiday theme, the…

I’ve been looking forward to the release of Champion Shooting: A Proven Process for Success at Any Level by Ben Stoeger and Jay Hirshberg since I first heard about it on an online forum. The authors are USPSA Grand Master and Master rank…
