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.

I'd like to see how many people are actually going, because I can always skate over to Izaak Walton and not deal with the masses. Lets try to get an official YES/NO/MAYBE count going.

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.

Yeah, there were 2 guys firing a Remmy PSS some custom 700 with a can. 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

haha..screw em all, we had fun and that's all that matters

ETA: oh yeah I forgot about that twerp that shot up your target stand. 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.

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.

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.
