Long winded Mers gives the skinny on pistons, the Tirant .45 and how to get a date with a hot chick. Well, I’m lying about the last part, but this skinny might have been a little better had he thrown that in there. Just sayin’.

Thanks to all of you for supporting us and here’s to the future! Enjoy your day, eat some food, watch some football, go shooting, whatever you can do, have fun!

Here’s a few random shots of the facility at Tier One (www.t1g.com). Those of you that have been to previous Silencer Shoots at Red Hill might notice a bit of an improvement. These pics show just a few of the 9 separate ranges, as well as the 2 shoot houses, a breaching house and a little bit of the classroom buildings.  October 8, 9, 10, 2010.

Here is a little entertainment from behind the scenes at last week’d photo/video shoot. this little scene called for a hummer to roll up, guys to jump out and start shooting downrange. Simple enough. Here, some of the guys have made it out of the vehicle and are sending a few rounds:

Then, during a reload, Greg realizes that the vehicle’s decided to back on out of there on it’s own. This allowed me to get this sweet shot of the low speed chase:

Kevin was quick to commend Greg on his expert use of the parking brake.  Greg insists that he did it on purpose to get the vehicle out of the Kill Zone.

A shot from the last week’s photoshoot at T1G- A pair of ACR-SD™s on ACRs with an 870 MCS in the background.  Right-click the appropriate link(s) below and “save as” to your desktop. Thanks!

Here’s Cory demonstrating that the AAC rebar cutter makes an effective spare key for getting into your car.

Happy Friday to everyone!

Kevin, Cory and I met up with some of the guys from Remington Defense this week out at Tier One Group for some photo and video shoots. It’s tough to get up early and spend a whole day shooting the latest and greatest weapons out there. I got lots and lots of pics and will be posting some along with background stories over the next week or two.

On a related note, we got to recon the facility as part of the planning for the 2010 Silencer Shoot. Wow, it’s going to be amazing, mark your calendars now- October 8, 9, 10.

We got to do a lot of shooting.  Everything from .22′s to the belt-fed 240 to some of Remington’s new MSR’s in .338, and everything in between.

Here’s Cory putting a few rounds downrange with a Remington ACR, decked out in a full Crye setup. We spent most of our time on the 300 yard range and in the shoot houses. At the close end of the 300 yard range, there’s a stack of connex trailers to simulate buildings for breaching and sniping operations… well, you haven’t lived until someone rips off a belt with an M240 [unsuppressed] inside the connex.  I think my fillings are loose.

At one point on Wednesday, Kevin commandeered a hummer and took Cory shooting…

More later!

Mike Mers and Rachel give a quick skinny on what life is like post Remington MPD acquisition.

For one night only, we at AAC will ignore our obsession with silence.

Attention SHOT 2010 attendees- Advanced Armament Corp. is starting off this year’s show the right way with a huge bash Tuesday night. The festivities will take place surrounded by the best view in Vegas- the Voodoo Lounge at the Rio. Drinks, food, fun, and a little live entertainment.

Another spotting of AAC “in the wild”. This time from a handgun class- thanks Will!
