Shooting Rats

Ah, springtime. Time for budding tulips and chirping birds. Time for turtles on the log and peeper frogs in the swamp. Time to head to the desert west for the annual spring RR varmint eradication mission!








Drew laid down waves of suppression fire with his sporty new S&W MP15-22.













Andy kicked it old school with a Marlin Model 60 and shooting sticks.











"To kill, you must know the enemy, and in this case my enemy is a varmint. And a varmint will never quit- ever. They're like the Viet Cong. Varmint Cong. So you have to fall back on superior firepower and superior intelligence. And that's all she wrote." -Carl Spackler, Caddyshack

Hours later, the ground was littered with scores of dead rodents.

To pay respect to perhaps the most publicly beloved man Detroit, Michigan has ever known.
