2007 NRA-Beeman Grand Prix Championship
Give it up for my man Dan. WAY TO GO!!!
Short story about Daniel. In the late 80's he was in an ATV accident shortly after graduating high school. The accident left him paralyzed from the neck down. While in a hospital in Atlanta GA. a nurse gave him a Air Rifle after learning that he loved to hunt. The Nurse worked with some people and made the gun so Dan could fire it by blowing in a tube. He would spend hours shooting the air rifle.
After he came home he went into a deep depression because he had nothing to do and most of his so called friends abandoned him. Along came a guy that became his Stepfather that also like to hunt. After a long search he found a company that would sale him a device to connect to a full size rifle that used air to make it fire. So they adapted it to a CO2 air rifle and Dan went to work. He got invited to a shooting match and introduced to other handicapped air rifle shooters. He joined them and soon up graded his CO2 rifle to a Fienwerkbau FWB .700 . The rest as they say is history. He has been shooting the Beeman for three years now and is starting to settle in with the best of them.
I have known Dans mother for many years and they are some really great people to know.
