Las Vegas, Nevada - SHOT Show's Media Day at the Range provides members of organizations covering the event to come try items you couldn't otherwise test in a convention center – firearms.

Vendors booths there at the Boulder Rifle and Pistol Club were set up to display merchandise and provide a series of rifles and pistols to fire at the downrange targets.

One booth NRAblog stopped by was Springfield Armory's, where models of their XD line of pistols were ready for action.

Above is NRA's General Operations Deputy Executive Director Andrea Cerwinske and yours truly throwing a few rounds at downrange metal targets courtesy of the XD pistol. Yes, it was a fun as it looks.
