Tell you what, we are having fun today. What we're doing here is we're broadcasting live from the Grand American Trap Shoot in, well, I was going to say in Van Day, Ohio. Talk about old habits right. I'm sitting here saying, no, that's not where we are now. We're in Sparta, Illinois. Sparta, Illinois. I'm Tom Gresham, shows Gun Talk, just to let you know where you've landed. It's not some alien planet. It's actually where the good guys and the good gals own guns and shoot them and use them responsibly, and we have a bunch of fun. This is not a place where, unlike your local television or perhaps newspaper where they say guns equal crime, no, here guns equal fun and that's what we do here

we're visiting with uh randy bimson from barretta randy you guys have been kind enough to let us set up

we're in the barretta store here which is air conditioned which oh my we're beating the heat without a doubt

we are what is it out there hundred at. I think I saw 101 on it.

Yeah, and they're saying that's in the shade and there is no shade here. There is no shade. No, we're hoping that within the next 10 years of trees will grow. Yeah, I noticed they've got a whole line of trees and I'm thinking, boy, now that's optimism for you. I mean, they just put them all in, and eventually we'll have some shade around here.

Oh, for sure.
