Saturday, April 27th from 10 AM to 12 PM
Veteran and Motivational Speaker, Omar “Crispy” Avila

There aren’t many people that embrace a challenging situation quite like Sergeant Omar “Crispy” Avila. 

A real American hero, Sergeant Avila was part of a convoy that came under attack during the Iraq war immediately after his Humvee drove over a 200-pound IED. The explosion rocked the vehicle, killing one of his teammates instantly. 

Without hesitation, Sergeant Avila climbed into the turret of his Humvee which was engulfed in flames and began manning .50 caliber machine gun to provide cover fire for his teammates -while he was ON FIRE. He was able to suppresses the 30 to 40 Iraqi insurgents surrounding them before leaping from the top of the burning vehicle, breaking both his femurs.
Sergeant Avila woke up three months later at the VA hospital in San Antonio with no memory of ever leaving Iraq. He had sustained life-threatening injuries and been placed into a medically induced coma with more than 75% of his body was covered in third and fourth-degree burns and an amputation. 

Nine years and over 100 surgeries later, Sergeant Avila beat the odds and is thriving as a motivational speaker, professional power lifter, and daily inspiration to thousands of people. With his self-imposed nickname “Crispy,” Sergeant Omar Avila is full of enduring optimism and even humor in his unfathomable situation.

Riton is proud of Sergeant Avila and all of our American heroes, both in uniform and out, stateside and abroad and feel fortunate to host him at NRA’s annual meeting. 

Saturday, April 27 from 3 PM to 5 PM

She qualified for Nationals and competed once again in Vegas. She then met the love of her life Neal Currey, a former Army Ranger.

Their biggest goal is to provide others the same ability to protect themselves and to provide their customers with unmatched service. Not only do they sell firearms, but also dozens of firearm safety and training courses. Casey now uses her influence on social media, not only for fitness, but also to get their word out about our 2nd amendment rights and the importance of protecting yourself. She has worked with companies such as Kimber, Magnum Research and a few others to help promote the right to bear arms.
