1st Annual Eagle Cap Shooter’s Association Machinegun Shoot

When: June 17-18, 2006

Where: Eagle Cap Shooter’s Assn. Range, Enterprise, OR (NE Oregon)

The Eagle Cap Shooter’s Association is hosting its first annual machinegun shoot at our new range. We are offering advance reservations for the 50 10’ firing line spaces at $50 each. Reserve your space now as there are a limited number. Firing line spaces will be $75 at the gate, if they are available. Firing line spaces include entry for one person.

Entry fee will be $15 per person for one day or $20 per person for the whole weekend. A 2-day pass is $18 if purchased in advance.

We will have exploding targets, appliances and other interesting things to shoot, with targets out to 1000 yards. If we can work out the disposal logistics on junk cars, we'll have those available as targets, too. Tracer and incendiary ammo is OK (as long as there are no state fire restrictions in place at the time). A night shoot, Saturday night, will be offered, too (again, pending any fire restrictions). Please contact us if you want to shoot anything over 20mm.

We are working on SMG matches and possibly other matches, but nothing is finalized at this time. If you or your club is interested in putting on a match, please contact us.

On site camping will be available for $25 per space. RVs are welcome, but there are no hook ups available.

Outdoor vendor spaces are available, too. Contact us if you are interested. If you are a vendor and wish to sponsor some of the shoot, contact us for sponsor packages.

Gun rentals are OK, but require a rental permit of $25 per firing line space.

Food and beverages will be available on site at a reasonable price.

ATVs, mules, golf carts are permitted for those with firing line spaces and those with physical disabilities. There will be restrictions on speed and permitted areas.

There are motels within 10 miles of the range. We are working on special shoot pricing and we will post updates here.

If you would like more information or would like to reserve a firing line space please email [email protected].

Sounds awesome! Well, except for the 7 freaking hour drive. Might have to take my NFA goodies down there though (M203 and handful of suppressors.)

The plan is for a KNob Creek style event. 1000 yd range, 500' firing line. Night shoot, junked cars, Tannerite, all manner of machineguns. Possibly even a 20mm. Should be a blast! (no pun intended)

It's gonna be closer to 10 for me and I'm in state!
As far as AR15.com goes, I already have 2 firing line spots in the works. Staff has been asked about a banner and such.So, don't worry about a place to stand and shoot! You may want to get a camp spot though, I've got 2 of them reserved but that's for 2 wall tents.

The more the merrier!

It'll be a good time for all and there should be lots of interesting guns. There will be guns for rent and we're working on getting some vendors there, including some of the well known names in the NW.

Be sure and watch the web site for updates.

Eastside Manufacturing, Cascade Armory and Painfield Instruments will be renting guns. Between the three of them, they will have just about anything you could ever want to shoot.

Don't miss out on this opportunity!

No idea who Eastside is, but I know that Cascade has cool stuff and Ive seen and left greasy fingerprints on some of Painfields stuff, think "beltfed". I'll at least be coming down for a day if not both.

How much would one expect to spend at a shindig like this?

I see the posted prices but as far as gun rentals and ammo, what is a reasonable expectation assuming you want to do a lot of blasting?

Really depends on the weapon and the vendor. The last one we had OCT05 a mag off of a MP5SD or MP5K was $5 as was a M16, G36SD as well. The same vendor had a MG34 or 42 (cnt remember which one) and for $5 you could rattle off a 50rd belt. The M249 was $5 for a 30rd AR mag and $50 for a 200rd belt

I plan on taking $200 for rentals and cool stuff, and about 3K of 5.56 for my own rifles.
