SwoBOATaFest 2021

They Cancelled Shot Show so we had our own get together

SwoBOATAfest 2021


This year instead of our yearly trek to ShotShow a group of industry friends Infidel Outfitters (Joe Swoboda) & Waist Deep Charters (Leevi Escobar) and AWR from Breitbart, got together in south Texas to get away for a little while and have some fun. This year we decided on meeting up at Sellmark’s location in Texas and driving down to Port Mansfield for some Duck hunting, fishing, and full-auto fun. 


Pre-trip check at Phoenix Weaponry, we decided to bring some real toys and one of our new integrally suppressed shotguns as our contribution to the fun. We took a full-auto version of a Morgan AR 15, Integrally suppressed .338-06, Autumn our new integrally suppressed 12-gauge shotgun, and one of our signature rifles, a .45-70 auto. 


Wednesday, January 27th, go to Denver International Airport and got ready to depart to Dallas Fort Worth. From there, we made it to Sellmark’s headquarters, home of Pulsar thermal optics, Sightmark, Kopfjager, Firefield, and their new brand Bullet Safe. 


The next morning Mike from Sellmark and I got up early, loaded up the vehicle, and picked up Kevin from Main Beam Media. As part of our 8-hour drive south to Port Mansfield, we stopped a couple of times along the way to search for ammo and get my hunting and fishing licenses. If you're driving through a town called West, Texas stop in at Slovacek's and get yourself some traditional Kolaches for a snack. 


Later that night, we arrived in Port Mansfield, met up with Joe and Hector from Infidel Outfitters, for taco’s and libations. When in Texas, you have to enjoy some TX Whiskey! 

After a very short night's rest, we got up early Friday morning and fired up the airboat, and headed out to our blind. It's such an incredible sight to watch the sunrise come up over the water. Not too much longer, and here come the Ducks. They have quite a variety of species down there that we were able to hunt like; Pin Tails, Red Heads, Green Wing Teals, Blue Wing Teals, Wigeon, Gadwall, and Spoonbills. What a great day, Duck hunting in South Texas! Tired and hungry, we loaded up, got back on the airboat, and went back to town for lunch at the Windjammer. For the rest of the day and into the evening we went out to the marina and fished off the docks. After spending the afternoon reeling in some black drum, catfish, and even a stingray, we took a break for some dinner at Pelicans then headed back out for more fishing. 


Saturday, we met up with Levi from Waist Deep Charters and headed out to the flats in their shallow water fishing boat. It’s very different seeing such a vast area that’s only knee to waist-deep water. With Phoenix Weaponry being located in Colorado, we are used to very deep, high mountain lakes. We had our limit by around lunchtime, so we reeled everything in and went back to shore to the local shooting range for some full-auto fun by Phoenix Weaponry. Dinner time came around on Saturday, and normally I don’t care for eating fish but after a full day of catching fish in the flats, we headed over to Joe and Hector’s along with AWR from Breitbart where they had their Discada fired up and were processing the fish we just caught. Fresh fish tacos and Duck made right there on the coast - I didn’t leave hungry. 


Sunday was a quieter day as we made the 8-hour trip from Port Mansfield back up to Sellmark’s headquarters again, stopping at Slovacek's for some more Kolache’s and buying enough for the factory crew at Sellmark. 


Monday morning, we all hung out at Sellmark and discussed opportunities and challenges of manufacturing products in the USA. Later on, that day got back on a plane and headed back to DIA. What an amazing trip we had, and I cannot thank the guys enough from Sellmark, Kevin at Main Beam Media, Joe, and Hector at Infidel Outfitters, and Levi from Waist Deep Charters for making this trip so fun and memorable.
