Is Milan out near Cabelas? Maybe that Lapeer reference was about the Pit and not Milan.

Milan is about 10 mins. N. of Cabella's the pit is a DNR / public land where people can target practice.

My range in Milan is on Private land that is owned by my family.

You are welcome to come -

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 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 can't think of a need for electricity, but the pole barn isn't far off from the range, anyway.

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?

Is the range open "late", as in after dark?

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.

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!

Along time ago, my grandpa told me, "Boy, you never turn down a chance to shoot a gun."

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.
