NRA Edition Caption Contest Winner

April 13, 2015

11133688_858037080930387_8246442637700871541_n — The order said 100 yards from the Remington booth, which is right…here.

I usually snag vintage pics for our weekend photo caption contests, but when we paused for a portrait on our way into the Music City Center Friday morning, I couldn’t resist. And you, our readers, outdid yourselves as usual. There were so many notable efforts, but we only have a single CMC trigger to give away and one entry stood out for being both clever and lulz-worthy. Commenter Jason penned the above caption. Fortunately, our current restraining order . . .

had expired at the end of March so we were free to enter the exhibit hall and roam about as we wished. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to check out the new RM380. Anyway, we’ll be sending Jason his trigger along with our undying admiration. And to everyone who participated, we are not worthy.

  Believe me, you couldn’t miss it.

That is good. Did you happen to jot down the runners up?

That’s funny!

A worthy winner 🙂

I only had sexual puns – I’m sorry. I think most did. We couldn’t resist – three dudes sandwiched up like that.

Good job Jason – funny.

  It’s not gay in a three-way! Well… maybe this one.

    A pro-gun lemon party?

      Hey I’m not gay, but $20 is $20.

Jason’s comment was clever, directly referencing TTAG infamy, and did not go for the obvious (innuendo or Three Amigos reference). Well played, sir.

Good one. I guess you guys DID kiss and make up…

So who won the one with the man and son holding guns? You never announced a winner. I think the price was a laser.

Kudos on this post, though. You guys should always follow up the contests with a post recognizing the winner.

  SpeleoFool won the laser with this one:
  
  Left: how antis picture the average gun owner; Right: how gun owners picture themselves.
  
  I usually just contact the winner directly, but I’ll try to announce them going forward.

    Thanks Dan! I think it would be fun to congratulate the winners.
Jason April 13, 2015 At 19:39

Woohoo!

Now I’ll be able to squeeze out some gun truth of my own! Thanks, TTAG.

(and what better way to win a trigger upgrade than a Remington-related joke)

There can be only one! Congrats Jason… good caption. 🙂

I came up too late with “Need a Life Change? See the NRA!”

I couldn’t get my eyes off that big round sign.
