Live from 2014 NRA Convention Indy-Pictures, Videos and Reports

[tbhausen]

Hey that's me 3rd row back on the left resting and waiting for the Libertyseed to start

 

[Fenway]

Everyone was asking about INGO at the show!

 

[Sylvain]

Just got back. Lots to see & didn't see it all. Planning on finishing Sunday. Fenway, I looked around a couple of times & didn't see you right behind me. Must have been too many people

Fenway is easy to spot.Look for a guy dressed like that with eight bodyguards ("mods").

 

[indyjohn]

Don't mind the goofy bald guy.

Nice. Makes that patch all the more valuable and desirable...

 

[Fenway]

Yes, The thread of the INGO Bling Patch is from the hair of Yeager's goatee and then dipped in 24K gold.

Nice. Makes that patch all the more valuable and desirable...

I OCd all day... Several blocks to and from the car, at the convention, at Claddagh Irish Pub, and the Old Spaghetti Factory. TONS of NRA folks everywhere and all the LEOs have been really cool too. I asked this afternoon and the IMPD guy I talked to told me there has not been one single problem of any kind he knew of. Hopefully things stay that way.

I picked up a Crimson Trace LaserGrip for my G19 and I'm happy to say it fits perfectly in my ALS 7378 holster (left hand model). The laser module fits perfectly within the pocket for the thumb release lever, like it was made for the CTC (maybe it was?).

The very one he touched right, not just the same model.?
It's like a holy patch now, a holy relic that brings you luck in gunfights.

 

[pudly]

Interesting. Didn't know that Yeager could form his beard into a patch like that. I figured you'd at least have to trim it and then have a junior mod knit the hair into a new patch.

Just got home. Man, were there ever a lot of people there. Couldn't walk much, just a kind of shuffle as I dodged other people. Still a ton of fun. Got to fondle the new G42 and some Sigs I've had my eye on.

Only saw about three or four other OC'ers. Was really surprised about that. Thought there would be a lot more OC.

Found my next new grips thanks to Thomas at VZ Grips!!

My Dad and I were there. He picked up some 1911 grips.
He wanted the red/white/blue ones. But the serrations were too aggresive.
And the design wasn't available on the other serations.

I honestly thought I'd see tons of 1911 accessories. We only found VZ, cause the salesman at Boyds stocks told us about them.


Speaking of Boyds, the salesman seemed to be the only one to notice my OC'd S&W model 19. (At the convention)
Said i was the "last man carrying a wheel gun".

Note, a traffic director noticed and said "whoa"

Found my next new grips thanks to Thomas at VZ Grips!!

Darn I wish I would have known you were there today!

 

[cbhausen]

Linky no worky.

Fixed, thanks. My cell phone shooting in HDR mode creates images too large to upload. Had to resample it. (Permalink #26 if anyone's wondering).

 

[PoormansMachinegun]

You just never know who might show up at the NRA Conventions! I was trying
to get a photo of James Yeager (Left of Mr. Heslin facing away).

 

[fraige1987]

Unforgettable event and glad I got to enjoy it!

 

[JetGirl]

Darn I wish I would have known you were there today!

I kept looking for signs of INGOites. The last five minutes (literally) I saw an "OC/CC" shirt and said, "INGO shirt!!"
I don't recall the Screen name, only the first name.

The representative at the Kimber booth wasn't very nice. I tried to talk to him about a couple things and he was sort of a douche nozzle. I kind of took pleasure in telling him that his brand-new 380 Kimber micro that was on display had a big ol' idiot scratch on it. He got huffy. (I'm betting because he's maybe the one that put it there… LOL)

 

[Fenway]

We have two INGO advertisers at the show... AA Optics and Bobcat Steel! Be sure to stop by and say hi on Sunday if you can make it!

[actaeon277]

I stopped by AA Optics, thanked him for helping me twice.

 

[snorko]

I did buy a couple sets of Eagle secret service grips for revolvers. Pretty neat to buy them from the president of the company.

 

[turnandshoot4]

Saw this on the way down.


Back of Jesse Duff's head.


Got to handle many of my unicorns today. Really glad I did.


Met THE Les Baer


If you aren't listening to Ballistic Radio, you should be. An awesome radio show and I ran into the host.


Angus. This was the most interesting conversation. The loads for our CZs nearly matched. Thanks Rob377


Stumbled into Zionsville for food. Very tasty. I was a bit out of place, I parked next to the Bentley of Zionsville. Weird. Food porn.

Me and my new Friend
