After a tour of the NRA National Firearms Museum, the 45 students participating in the 2010 Youth Education Summit, or YES, headed to the NRA Headquarters Range. At left, students enjoyed photographing the Museum's varied exhibits.

Today was a busy day, and we're told it's going to be one heck of a week. "We head to the Pentagon for a tour on Wednesday, and the U.S. Capitol on Thursday," event organizer Nicole McMahon told NRAblog.

But today was all about NRA Headquarters. The Range, with its exciting new renovations, marked the first time a few of these students had handled firearms. "I can't believe how fun that was," a student told us after shooting a .22 caliber pistol for the first time in her life.
