Evening y’all.
I recently learned that Liam McKenna’s twin sister Maddy recently had a major stroke, at only 24. Sounds like she has a pretty long road ahead of her to recovery.
Liam has organized a GoFundMe to help cover what I am sure are horrendous expenses. If you are not aware, Liam is one of the better [finally not a Jr.] Service Rifle shooters in the country, and a squared away young man.
Picture: Long Range Nationals, I’m the only hot rifle left on the line, as sighting at 1,000 with an A2 is a little tougher than most of the real rifles used out there. I’m not a slouch on an A2, but it sucks pretty bad once you pass the half mile mark. But hey, I’m getting by pretty well, probably 13 minutes into my 20 allowed, with a couple shots to go...
Older NRA Ref. decides he needs lemonade faster, and comes over to basically question if I am even on paper, and loudly point out that he’s “not giving you more time here”.
LIAM...a 19 yo kid at the time, basically tells the ref to pound sand and go away. I can’t hear this whole exchange due to..ya know...actually shooting. So I asked Liam about the hubbub, to which he replied: “Nothin’. Just keep shooting.”
He knew full well what I was up against, and that I needed no distractions, so out of respect, he put in place an authority that should have known better.
That’s the kind of kids we’re talking about with Maddy and Liam.
Seems like maybe I can help out.
If you can help as well, be it $1 or $100, try this link:
Thanks,
