It may have been the Tannerite, a binary explosive reactive target, that got them to send the ambulance, but luckily we stopped Homeland Security, the Alaska State Troopers, and Bear Creek Fire Department while we could still hear all the siren calls echoing from a mile away.
Seward Police Department did come by to pet the turkeys, and mentioned that the notice I gave a week ago was still hanging at the office.
Apparently the 911 calls mentioned automatic weapons fire and explosions.
Oh, look, there are the automatic weapons. Right next to the guys from the Alaska Machine Gun Association.
The turkeys loved the turkey shoot. Miss Cuba wanted to try out everything, the FNC rifle, the Ouzi and mini-Ouzi with suppressors, the Benelly entry shotgun, the GPMGs - a M6 74 and a PKM, the G3 and CZ 58 select fire rifles, the HNK MPS, and most especially the FNP 90 submachine gun with 5.7 armor defeating projectiles that cost 75 cents each.
The local boys brought their own, a Mark 2, a 357 Desert Eagle, a 1939 Polish Radom and 40 caliber Glock 27. Lets not forget the "45 military whatever." Buck particularly liked how the Desert Eagle flipped its empty shells all over the place. He got so cocky he even chased the two labador retrievers around.
Sara was on hand, and she really has the best photos, posted below...but wanted to give a shout that everyone had a good time. Didn't get to the golf, the rather elegant and elaborate skeet range and weapons, or the turkey poesy contest. Didn't even get the barbecue going, everyone was too busy blasting away.
Many thanks to our USPS (30 years) working weapons dealer, a vegetarian who owns six cats - and our flower sniffing, tree hugging, environment loving buddy, who provided a safe and fun time for all involved.

Sounds fun. I wish I could have come.
AAWRIIIIIIIGHT!
Did you guys actually shoot those turkeys? Is that an
outhouse in the background? Looks pretty intense!
The turkeys did the shooting. That is the ladies room in the background. Haven't really worked much on the mens room yet...but I have one on the other side of the property.
Looks like the poor turkeys SHOULD NOT have had a chance! :-))
It looks like a good thing there are no wild turkeys in your area! They limit us to shotguns and birdshot.
hat is a publishable photo-make sure the guy doesn't mind and sell it -AP buys photos as does various mags-or write a story and use it -it is great!!! Ed
And you call Michiganders blood thirsty.
HHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA!!! How funny!!!
Probably a pretty poor idea in a residential area. Maybe you figured that out after all the 911 calls.
Only a F-ing idiot wrapping themselves in the flag would poke fun at activating the already strapped emergency services of a small town by turning their property into a warzone without having the simple decency to notify their neighbors, instead letting helpless pets crouch under furniture soiling themselves all day to avoid going outside and being scared half to death by automatic gunfire, high explosives, and perhaps animal cruelty. The City of Seward sure picked themselves a LOSER for a City Council Person who shows ABSOLUTELY NO RESPECT FOR HER NEIGHBORS,(who were disturbed by gunfire all day and are continuing to suffer the TOXIC effects of her lack of any sense of stewardship) HER LAND,(now a toxic waste dump holding materials including boat bottom paint, toxic sandblast grit contaminated with diesel fuel, as well as heaven knows how much lead and shell casings.), or HER COMMUNITY (laughing about taking VOLUNTEER FIREFIGHTERS AND EMT's way from their day jobs to respond to what may have been a legal, but certainly not an ethical activity) Thank God there was not an earthquake, Motor Vehicle Accident, Heart Attack or other true emergency happening while our dedicated local volunteers were responding (putting themselves at risk) to an obvious false alarm.
While I do not live inside the city limits, and therefore am a second class citizen (despite my habit of shopping in Seward, paying a sales tax, instead of shopping in Anchorage where everything is de-facto 6% off), I will do what I can the next election cycle to get rid of this MORON who absolutely does not care about her community, her neighbors, or her land. Develop some ethics, honey
Sounds like a blast. Haven't had an opportunity to do some shooting like that since I was stationed in the CA desert.
Too bad Anonymous couldn't have been there to direct your fire from the impact area.
Let me guess. Anonymous is the idiot neighbor? Gosh are addresses and phone numbers still public record?
Feel free to stop by my house Mr Anonymous. I'd love to listen to your opinions up front and personal or do you not have the balls to say any of this to anyone's face thus the anonymous commenting.
You didn't invite me? I agree with anonymous, though. You shouldn't be wearing a flag when you hunt. I hunt nekkid so as not to offend anyone.
