This weekend is going to be a blast. I'm not kidding, it's going to be exploding with excitement at the Central Wyoming Machine Gun and Cannon Shoot. If you've never gone, you're missing out. Especially if you love guns, firepower, explosions, camaraderie, and helping out veterans.

The event has been going on for nearly thirty years, and each year, it gets bigger and better than the last. The man behind the event is Quinton Miller. He's been coming up with different ways to make things explode for the last nine years, and he works on interesting ways to blow things up year-round.

Quinton tries to keep most of the bigger surprises under his hat, but he did say that Saturday night's Mad Minute is going to be big.

I don't want to give away all of my secrets, but we are working on some stuff for Saturday night. The Mad Minute is always the funnest part of the night, it's also the most stressful. Trying to maintain that line of what we can get away with, and what we can't. It's always fun, though. To see it work the way you planned it, it makes you smile a little.

If you love guns and you love BIG guns, you need to check out the Central Wyoming Machine Gun and Cannon Shoot. It's going all weekend, beginning Friday, June 5, and wrapping up Sunday afternoon, June 7.
