Yesterday's desert run

6 shooters. 20 guns. At least 1000 rounds fired. Lots of fruit destroyed (oranges, grapefruit, baby watermelon, etc.) We even shot up 2 computers, an old Compaq server (roughly the size of a microwave) and an old Mac Quadra. I smacked myself with another guy's scoped rifle; it'd been a long time since I've fired a scoped rifle and I had my eye too close. I got whacked good and my orbital bone (over my eye, where the eyebrow is) still is a bit sore. But, it was a good time overall, and it was bloody hot when we finished around 11AM, 102F in the desert near Jacumba.

Here are the pics and videos.
