Event Announcement- 2/5/2012 BOTW Range

[lalonguecarabine]

Just thought I'd add names to a few of these so everyone knows who they're looking at:

LeStrange on the pistol, Texas1911 crouching with the rifle, with M. Sage as the RSO in the black jacket. Don't recall the name of the gentleman in the tan jacket, but he was a helluva nice guy!

Texaslady1911 in the foreground, Glockster69 in the background, with myself, LJH, and country_boy shootin' the shit.

M. Sage on the right, Texas1911 to his left.

M. Sage in the background, Texas1911 in the middle, and myself loading up my old battlefield relic.

Never caught this gentleman's name, but I did chat with the instructor (though his name escapes me at the moment as well).

Scubastasia firing one of the courses.

It wont freeze now that im going will it?

Just saw this. Post number six in the thread back on the 18th of December...

country_boy, you jinxed us!

 

[Glockster69]

Thank you Glockster for teaching me how to shoot the Shot Gun

You're welcome and glad you enjoyed it. However the truth is I provided the hardware, Sage provided the instruction. Wish I'd had some slugs for you to fire. How's your shoulder feelin?

@ country_boy: I tought you'd be more funnier in person what with Leslie, the world's finest comedic actor as your avatar. Good to meet you n I screwed up by not taking the offer to shoot your AR. I think I was loading mags and then got distracted. Maybe next time? Oh, thanks for jinxing the temp 2 months in advance.

@ orbitup: I'd never shot an AK before. It felt kinda 'loose' but good at the same time. Is that they way they are supposed to be? Good to see you again. Give me a holler next time your passing thru and I'll take you to The Bar.

@ lalonguecarabine: Damnit I hate typing your user name! $100 to switch it to Bob or boob or ...
Good to finally meet you, enjoyed the BS session.

@ M Sage: Thanks for popping the cherry on my 1200
(see http://www.texasguntalk.com/forums/...g-range/31073-must-do-san-antonio-area-2.html #30 for context)

Alan, that's one helluva trigger finger you've trained there. I've seen/heard it in videos but live, it is most impressive. Glad I don't supply your ammo.

My ONLY complaint would be that when a cease fire took place, it was communicated by word of mouth down the firing line as opposed to being called out loud and clear by someone. Repeating, it WAS communicated.

SaWEEET!!! Had a great time, well worth the drive to meet n shoot with everyone. Alan, Travis and all the TGT staff and others that helped, thank you for putting on the event. Sterling & TR, great food, thank you. The bonus was when I asked who's collecting the money for the TGT t-shirts I believe it was Texaslady1911 that said 'grab one n go'. BOTW is off the beatin path for me but a very cool facility/layout IMO. I'll go back when I can.

Yeah, that's how they are... Keeps them reliable.
It was good to see you too and I'll call you next time I'm driving through.

That was my AR with a standard GI trigger in it. The 7 lb. pull slows me down. If I had my old Geisselle trigger in it I could probably go about 30% faster.

Thanks to everyone that came out, please post feedback (positive or negative) so we can know what you liked / disliked.

 

[SIG_Fiend]

Thanks everyone for coming out! It was great to meet everyone, put more names to faces. I'm glad everyone had a great time. The more we have these events, the more refined they will become.

Austingunspot, thanks for helping out on the line bro! Every little bit helped, and that was cool of you to do.

Christina, Mike, Dan, Anastasia, George, Sterling, LJ, Mel, and anyone else I'm forgetting that helped out, thank you all very much for all the help and all that you do! It couldn't have been done without you guys. I think we all make a great team, which goes a long way towards streamlining these things.

I'd also like to think Brad Walker from Madcat Aviator Operator for showing up and showcasing some of his awesome gear! My friend Iggy was incredibly happy with what he got from you. We look forward to having you at future events man!

I also want to thank Joseph Bell as well as the other guys from Tactical Immersion for making it out and helping with some of the instruction and drills. Glad you guys made the trip, and we look forward to seeing you in the future!

 

[stalker19]

Had a great time! Good meeting everyone, enjoyed the food and shooting too. Thanks to Joe and the Tactical Immersion crew for the pile of Froglube and Alan for the Pmag! Hope to see more pics. Looking forward to the next event.

Actually my shoulder doesn't hurt it's my arms that are killing me lol. And the left side of my ribs hurt too. I'm pretty sore from yesterday lol. Yeah I was gonna thank Sage too but I didn't know his name at the time I posted lol. Thank you Sage wherever you are! I still thank you also Glockster. I hope to do it again.

Yeah I know I can predict weather, one of my tallets. Alan can do that too, being a level 10 guild master.

??? leslie?? nielsen? haha wrong.Thats hannibal smith(george peppard) from the a team with his smith model 59 like mine.

No problem theres always a next time. I would have been funnier if I didnt make it so dad gum cold out! Next time it will be in the 70's. There I have spoken and if alan makes it warmer or colder than thats his fault.

 

[Joseph Bell]

Wanted to thank you all for having us, as well as the few who bought the Frog Lube (I know that you will be happy with it!) also wanted to give a congratulations to Joe for winning both the .22 and the barricade/port match. Well done!

My guys and myself had a great time and are looking forward to the next event. Next time we will bring out some more range props & equipment!

 

[Dcav]

Glad to see the sponsors out there, I'll be trying out the frog lube soon as I get a free minute here,

I feel your pain. Except for my eyesight, wavering arms, and imperfect trigger finger, all my shots would be bullseyes

 

[kyletxria1911a1]

Frog lube gonna do mine when i get the blood off my slide
And back from brownsville

 

[Bank]

Where were the rest of the pictures?

The A Team? Hell, you're to young to know what that is, that means you're watching reruns of it
