Every year for the past 10 years I have thrown a DDay party. I am lucky enough to own a Winchester M1 that was used on D-day(3rd wave). I was gifted it by a vet who passed away later but wrote and let me record his entire story of the war. He said when he was on the boat going to the beach he could hear the bodies thumping on the sides of the boat. My Winchester is 100% parts matching other then the trigger group. He said it had a terrible trigger so when he saw a dead sniper he traded trigger groups.. anyways RIP Mr Clark.

Anyone who is around the Ashland Ky are on 6-6 is more than welcome to come join.. good clean fun(my twins come and play. 5 years old so no beer or cussing)

It is always an honor to shoot these old guns and to meet these men Who served!

And to all the Vets here…..

THANK YOU!!
