Milan's just up the road. If I can work it in, it sounds like fun.
|
|
I dont know if I can contribute, but I would be in. I drive through Milan all the time.
|
|
Other side of the state for me but I would like to come...Problem is my schedule changes constantly and I would have to wait until the week of to decide.
|
|
Alright, when we get a few more replies we can start talking about when.
I will try to check back in the thread daily - |
|
I am in Ypsi area, sounds fun! hard to find a place to shoot anymore. Lapeer is a long drive. I'd be in for help with anything you need help with.
Mike |
|
Depending on my schedule I would be into coming down for a shoot
|
|
Yep - I think that it is about time to meet some MI. arfcommers,
How does a weekend in late May or early June sound - |
|
Is Milan out near Cabelas? Maybe that Lapeer reference was about the Pit and not Milan.

|
Count me in, probably my son too.
We can help with some stuff. But like already mentioned, Memorial Day weekend isn't good. |
|
Yep, Memorial day weekend is nogo, but I will probably be @ the PIT again on memorial day with the BBQ grill -
for sure one of the non holiday weekends - I just looked @ the new calender, and so far, I like Sat. May 21, 2011 |

Still in Jackson Co. my family's property in Milan is where my range is. |

Depending on my work schedule, count me in for whatever help I can do for you
|
|
My schedule changes too. Let me know when and I'll try to make it. May have some new toys by then.
|
|
I am interested depending on the date.
I am in Kalamazoo but not afraid to travel. |
|
I am interested. Not too terribly far and that date range works.
|
|
I have a few, 3, I think, 8' long fold out tables.
1 picnic table a few fold out canvas chairs 1 10 x 10 canopy a few large coolers I think that we can have a few propane grills set up, (volunteer grill masters anyone?) needed - ice refreshments dogs / burgers / buns or anything that anyone would like to bring. any targets that anyone wants to bring I have a shot timer and have a few ideas for some fun competitions, like a pistol walk back, elimination, farthest distance hit on steel wins the prize. even some team competitions maybe.......... More ideas needed, it is nice that we have a lot of time to plan ahead - |
|
I will bring a mess of soft drinks, ice and a huge cooler. Maybe burgers and buns too. I have real quiet honda gen's too if we need power.
Can work as range help too, just let me know what ya need. |

I have a gen I could bring, but it's pretty much the opposite of quiet.
Burgers, dogs, some venison maybe? |
|
I can bring a cooler full of ice and drinks. I have a mess of targets to bring, I mean a mess. Silhouettes. I also have two target stands that I made out of 2x4's if you want me to bring those too. They fit the IDPA targets stapled to the frame.

I think I still have some tannerite ingredients around here somewhere.

I haven't scheduled all my classes for 2011 yet. I'll try to keep that date clear if I can.
I'll contact you closer to the event if I can make it. I'm good to help out as a RSO for part of the time if I do make it. Can we bring full-auto? |

ETA: On second thought, don't answer that.... people are gonna end up spending a whole lot of money if me and my friends show up. |

I'm interested as well, I've got a target stand and some steel I can bring. a big +1 to Forrest for putting this together

This is shaping up to be a real nice shoot. Realing looking forward to it, the 1919A4 is gonna come out and shoot a little. I guess the Steyr AUG needs a work out , with all the barrels. Be a good day to play with our toys. And thanks, Forrest!
|
|
It will be good fun to try out some guns that you have never tried before.............
Along time ago, my grandpa told me, "Boy, you never turn down a chance to shoot a gun." |
|
I had a friend volunteer to a be grill master......................
looking for 1 more RSO, and 1 more grillmaster - |

You can definitely count me in, and I would like to help out in any way I can. I grew up in Milan, and am there quite a bit, so I can probably help out with anything you might need before/after as well.
|
|

I would be interested as well, assuming no one has issues with someone newer to firearms attending.
I could also bring food/drinks or whatever is needed. |
