Celebration of 'the shot heard round the world'

Normally I think these kind of things are dumb, but I like this one, and will probably do it if I can remember.

In honor of the start of the revolutionary war, shoot your guns 8:30 a.m. on April 19

Experience is the hardest kind of teacher, it gives the test 1st and the lesson after.

Courage is knowing it may hurt and doing it anyway.
Stupidity is the same.
This is why life is so hard.

Only the ones with crappy stocks you don't like.

I imagine that would be the antigunner dream to mean it that way.  :)

So I've checked my schedule.

I'm available.

Might try out the SA M-1A I got back in December.

Haven't shot it yet.

Is this @ eastern, central, mountain, pacific or Hawaii standard time?  :)  Seems there ought to be some sort of unison to keep er goin round the world.

I might represent more than 1 time zone.
Pick up the slack for a loafer.

I think it said it was a rolling timing, and to be 8:30 in each respective time zone.
