Video: Chris Cheng Plays Beethoven’s “Ode to Joy” with Musical Targets

Many firearms enthusiasts know that Chris Cheng is an accomplished competitive shooter and author.

As it turns out, he’s also quite a talented musician—at least when the music-making involves shooting things to make melodies.

In the video below, Cheng blasts out a stirring rendition of the “Ode to Joy” from Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony using Musical Targets and a Volquartsen Custom Superlite .22 LR rifle. Maybe next time he’ll sing the chorus himself.
