Christmas photos come with gun backdrops

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Nov. 29 (UPI) -- An Arizona gun club is giving families the chance to take Christmas card photos with Santa Claus in front of firearms-themed backdrops.

The Scottsdale Gun Club said families can come in during the Santa and Machine Guns event, scheduled for Dec. 10 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., and have photos taken with jolly old St. Nick in front of backdrops ranging from an $80,000 Garwood minigun to common pistols, KSAZ-TV, Phoenix, reported Monday.

"I think it's going to be all in fun from those who support the second amendment and those who don't. Whether you're a gun advocate or not, you should have a lot of fun with it," gun club member Richard Jones said.
