The NRA's Second Annual Women's Wilderness Escape

The National Rifle Association will host it's Second Annual Women's Wilderness Escape, at the 33,000 acre NRA Whittington Center in Raton, New Mexico.  There will be ninety women in attendence at this year's event.  The event starts on September 17th and runs through October 4th.  I haven't been to the Whittington Center since 1977 when I was lucky enough to have drawn an Elk tag in the Whittington Center's Elk permit raffle.  http://www.nrahq.org/women/wilderness_escape.asp

I was honored to be selected as one of the staff firearm instructors this year.  I will be instructing the ladies on the FN PS-90 carbine, chambered for the potent 5.7x28 M/M round.  Luckily I've already had some trigger time on this interesting Bullpup carbine so I should be up to speed when I get to Raton.  More on the event when I return from my trip.  http://www.fnherstal.com/
