I've been thinking about a 1911. Does anyone have one I could try out?
In addition the obligatory AR, I'll bring a SAA clone, target steels, a dueling tree with a couple of .22 lever guns. So if there are any "Unarmed" Tech students interested in shooting, you're welcome to come also. |

Well, the trouble with our liberal friends is not that they are ignorant, but that they know so much that isn’t so.

Yes, probably for an hour or so.

Sadly, it is a members only deal, but if you don't mind the yearly fee it's a great place to shoot. I've gone 3 times in the past month and my FIL and I were the only ones shooting. They have 2 trout ponds, a pistol range with a lot of steel targets, a .22 only range, and a rifle/trap range that goes out to about 150yds with steel targets at about 115yds and 150yds and they provide target stands. It's down the Christiansburg wayside. I enjoy it and I think a lot of guys here would like it because you rarely have to wait to shoot and there aren't any yahoos. |

well, maybe we meet up at BBurg, shoot, and you can fill me in on this more. i would like a closer drive even, i live inbetween christiansburg and pilot.
either way, i look forward to seeing people here on Saturday. lets figure out a time. Originally Posted By 88_Sahara:

If weather holds I'll be there. Only plan on zeroing a 22lr revolver but will bring a small mix of Aimpoints/ACOGs for whomever asked.
|
|
Why 7.62? Because when the shootin' starts, people tend to hide behind things.
|
That was me who wanted to borrow them. Like I said, I'll be there around 1:00 unless the weather sucks. I'm 18 but friendly!!!

Rain or shine.
IM to slowmethinks. vtmactech |

Poor guy sighting in 30-06 probably thinking, "What's an AROCK? Them boys and their assault rifles, their weird."

They gave us funny looks until Slow talked to them and realized he'd met and shot with one of the guys before...I don't think they enjoyed Slow's bumpfire |
|

I fix things then I fuck em up... oops. However, the guy i met a few years ago was shooting HIS full auto 9mm AR. i feel he was used to full auto firing. plus they were shooting OUR targets. :-P

Some of my coworkers and I showed up at the range today at 10am, but they were closed for cleaning. We walked up the road and helped the guy for about 45 minutes and to thank us he didn't open the gate for another 2 hours while we shot and he sat around and smoked cigs and picked up brass. |

Spring has sprung...when are we goin shootin' again?
|

|
You know where to find me. IM me for short notice.

i will be free after June 10th. School lets out so I've got the whole summer. not sure if i said it yet or not, but i picked up some tannerite from the gun show a few weeks ago. this stuff must be shot soon or im gonna go mad!
|
|
|
I'm probably going to be up there on the 23rd if anyone is interested. If enough people are interested I'd come on a weekend.

I'm off next Friday if anyone wants to do an afternoon shoot
|
|
|
im game for that! actually, i may be able to use some land in floyd co. for the usage of my tannerite. SUPPOSEDLY, the land has range of 500 - 1000 meters. however, i need to scope this out before i commit. otherwise, Blacksburg range it is! but yes, Friday, i can do.
|
|
|
So, we are going to do Friday? Does anyone know a time they want to meet there?
|
|
|
I ended upgoing to Izaak Walton Friday and this morning. We' shouldplan for a shoot in about a month to get a bunch of people together and figure out the best day/time.
|
|
|
I'm game, end of July?

I'm going Sunday morning if anyone cares. Should be there an hour or two.
|
|
|
I would be interested in meeting up with some folks if something is set up. Most weekends work for me.
|
|
|
Planning to work at airport in B-Burg Saturday. Can leave around noon and be there shortly after that if interested.

Some guys from work and I are going on Thursday around 10:30am if anyone is free.
|
|
|
Saturday probably won't work for me now. Wife has special plans and I have to take care of our six year old who has never been shooting. I'm afraid it will be too busy there for her first time at a range and with the temps predicted it may be too much. If there is a group of AFRCOM'ers there. I want to stop in but I may not be able to shoot much if at all. Daughter is very strong willed and enthusiastic, I need to be able to maintain positive control of her.

You all want to meet up sometime this month? Was thinking it might be fun to have a little .22 or AR competition if anyone else is interested.
