Yeah, it was a good time, got to meet some of you finally. The wind was definitely annoying but not too bad and at least it kept us nice and cool.

It was good to take a little time out and shoot.... Nice to meet a few of the guys here on the forum too. I thought there would be more interest in the Browning.... I came home with two belts of ammo.... I took a better look at the target situation... 1x4 frames about 6' tall and 2' wide. The 2x2 frames I used were a little to thick to fit the holders. And there were almost no holders out at 100 yds. We set some up against a old steel frame but had to tie them up with wire because of the wind. Next time maybe a couple stand alone frames with feet and a few sand bags to keep them there. All in all I had a good time. I enede up joining for the year, so I'll need some of ya'll to say you are giong so I'll have an excuse to use my membership! MG

Well, crap, I too would have been glad to lend a hand there. I figured I would respect you and your weapons and not be a leech begging for a chance to pull the trigger and spit out a couple bucks. Who was to know that the owner was a decent human being who was willing to share. People like you are hard to find ya know! At least I got to shoot Markas' M1 and Nolan's Mosin.. That was a blast!



NEXT TIME!!
