Fi rearm enthusiasts, collectors, competitors and merchants flocked to The Ranch TX Club for Kalash Bash, an annual firearm festival, Friday through Sunday, April 10-12, in Eagle Lake. This year, Kalash Bash welcomed around 1,400 people and considers itself to be one of the largest firearm enthusiast gatherings in the United States. Rifle and subgun competitions spanned all three days, but participants also tried their hands at aerial gunnery from helicopters and airsoft. Over 70 vendors, including gunsmiths, equipment manufacturers, food trucks, artists and more, interacted in a massive Vendor Bazaar. After sunset, live entertainment and concerts performed on 12 stages.
