It’s a Golden Giveaway for Midsouth Shooters Supply, as they’re celebrating their 50th birthday with a huge event for their customers. It’s a nice way of saying thanks for all the patronage over the years, and we’d be fools not to tip you off to such a cool opportunity. Just enter with an email address or social media account, and you’re in the drawing to receive some sought-after shooting gear. You can enter daily, share the giveaway with other shooters and reloaders, and increase your chances of taking home any of the sweet prizes they’ll start giving away July 22, 2019. Just look at this stuff: an entire barrel of Hornady Frontier Ammo?! Who wouldn’t want that?! Or a Nosler Liberty Rifle, a Del-Ton ECHO AR, or a Vortex rifle scope?! This is like a shooter’s wish list, and it’s all up for grabs. Serious shooters are probably salivating at this lineup of prizes.

The truck already had a name for itself, at least on Instagram, where Pierce started @the_Pandra and shared photos (while gathering a good community of followers). The Pandra vaulted into truck immortality when the fires started and Pierce took it upon himself to step up. He used his vehicle and his fortitude to get himself to safety on two separate occasions, then helped evacuate a local hospital.

If There's One Shooting Supply Giveaway to Enter This Summer, This is the One

As his town was burning around him, the truck was dealing with its own share of abuse. The melted taillight covers, the plastic that began to drip away, and the toasted marshmallow paint job are the visible scars that the Tundra suffered, but the integrity of the truck survived.

The only exterior portion of the truck that was virtually unaffected by the heat and the flames was the DECKED Storage System he had installed in the bed.

When DECKED and Toyota heard about The Pandra's story, they both paid back the selflessness with replacements.

The Pandra now sits in Toyota's Plano, Texas corporate headquarters as a testament to the toughness Pierce, his truck, and his DECKED system showed that day.

Not only did DECKED replace the system for Pierce's new truck, but they also donated the amount of his first system to the GoFundMe page set up by his friends. Pierce likes to think he did what anyone would do, and focuses on what's important. The Pandra helped him set up a triage station on the hospital's helipad, where he and his fellow rescuers watched the city succumb to the flames. Once his family was safe and his duty at the hospital fulfilled, Pierce became reflective. He knew saving things like his photographs, written song lyrics, and treasured guitars was most crucial. Anything else could be replaced. What couldn't was the history of his town, the people who made it their home. Luckily, he and The Panda were there to help preserve some of that.

GET TO KNOW RISING COUNTRY ARTIST CB30

Wide Open Country caught up with Riggs, who just released his new EP Love & Panic, in Nashville. The emerging start talked about finding balance in an often hectic career — while fishing the Cumberland River, just steps from downtown Nashville. Sam Riggs spent much of his upbringing enjoying the outdoors. “It was a real musical family, real rural family,” Riggs says. “Kind of grew up blue collar, so being in the woods and fishing was always a big part of my life.” He learned a lot about fishing from his granddad, who was a preacher and fished “religiously,” Riggs says. As an artist who built his fan base by touring relentlessly, Riggs has seen a lot of the country. “It’s the most amazing job in the world,” he says. And for an artist as passionate as Riggs, spending a little bit of time by the water certainly helps replenish all that energy spent performing across the country night in and night out. Even if it means just pulling a Zebco rod out from behind his seat and stealing away for an hour.

There aren’t many all-terrain tires out there that can actually master both functions. The GEOLANDAR X-AT has seemingly repositioned the bar for dual-purpose capabilities, which realistically appeals to every driver. Sure, it’s nice to have the ability to escape the monotony of a paved road, but not at the expense of safe and satisfactory road performance. Designed for pickup trucks, Jeeps, and SUVs, the GEOLANDAR X-AT is an extreme all-terrain tire built to promote great grip, extreme durability, and a quiet, comfortable ride. “The GEOLANDAR X-AT delivers it all,” said Bob Abram, Yokohama’s senior manager of product planning. “It offers ultimate off-road performance without sacrificing any on-road comfort, making it a great performance upgrade for a variety of pick-up trucks and SUVs, no matter how or where they’re driven.” Yokohama’s GEO-SHIELD technology, which features multiple sidewall plies, a high turn-up carcass and a full nylon cap, gives the tire great puncture-resistance. Also, a superior tread life is made possible through a new HD2 compound. It’s a special triple-polymer blend engineered for reliable long tread life and impressive cut- and chip-resistance. The GEOLANDAR X-AT has dynamic, large shoulder blocks that are varied in length to create a biting edge and promote mud- and stone-ejection. Also, the angular center blocks give it extra strength and grip. It’s available in 27 sizes ranging from 15 to 22 inches.

An event like this is the culmination of a long-lasting success story. Midsouth and their founders worked hard to build it into the online marketplace it is today. Now, if you don’t check there for ammo, shooting, or reloading needs first, you’re doing yourself a disservice. Serious shooters have known about them for a long time, do you? There’s no excuse now, because an entry in this 50th Birthday Golden Giveaway is reason enough to check it out.

The grand finale announcement happens July 26, so the clock is ticking. There’s plenty to win in the giveaway, plus Midsouth Shooters Supply is promoting all kinds of sales and offers alongside. There will be a total of 50 winners in the giveaway, but countless others can cash in on significant savings, the likes only a company of Midsouth’s stature can offer. When you’ve been around as long as Midsouth Shooters Supply has, you’re doing more than a few things right.
