I have an old riding mower that could be shot up. I'm not sure if I will make the shoot but I can get it to someone who is going if there is interest in it.

I work in Frankfort and would be willing to drive to the Shelbyville exit on 64 to meet someone.




I also have a working Craftsman self propelled mower that I would like to see blown up while running.  It has been the biggest POS mower I have ever owned and I want it to die a terrible death.  




What are the shoot guidelines on children, such as 6 and 8 year old girls?  Are they welcome, welcome to only watch, or is that too young either way?  Especially given the recent news story of the 9 year old girl.

I MIGHT HAVE FOUND A TRUCK!!!!



We have about a 50/50 chance of him selling it to us for what ever we can pitch in.  I can haul it to the range.

So disappointed in myself. Without even thinking about it I booked a CCDW class for this Saturday, I'm the instructor so I can't back out. Sorry fellas I really wanted to get out and meet everyone. I'll try to make it to the Friday night meet up. Safe shooting and have a blast!

What cool guns is everybody else bringing so everybody knows what ammo we need to have?



I'll start.  If you want to shoot my stuff, it needs to be factory ammo.

SPAS 12 - 12 gauge 2 3/4" only.  It needs to be high brass to run semi auto.  It will run low brass in pump mode.

Five seveN - 5.7x28 and I have a suppressor for it.

HK Mark 23 - 45acp and I have a suppressor for it.

AR15 - 300 Blackout I have a suppressor for it.

1911 - 45ACP and I have a suppressor for it.

Heavy B - 308 and I it can be suppressed as well

I'll be 3-gunning in the morning.

After I will run up to the main range and hopefully try and squeeze in with my M82a1 and MAX-31 mk2.

If you have factory ammo, you can use them. I'll bring some extra .50 if someone wants to shoot it, we'll figure out a trade/cost or something.

It looks very unlikely that I will be able to make it down this year.

I've been dealing with a medical issue the past couple weeks, infection on my left leg that required iv antibiotics and I still have to wear special dressings for a couple more weeks.

I am healing up nicely but being unable to work for the past two weeks has put a huge strain on my family's schedule to cover for me and they are having to play catch up on shit they need to do.

Look forward to seeing you all again when I get the chance.

i'll be bringing a friend or two arriving around 11:00.

I will bring the SCAR17S and the M16 for sure. Factory ammo is all you need to shoot them. I will also have the .22lr  and 9mm uppers as well.

Forgot to add, I will have a 6.8 Upper on hand.

I also will have a beta mag for 5.56 mag dumps if you are so inclined.

I plan on bringing my:

556 SBR (as seen in my avatar)
Blaser Tactical 2
300 blackout AR with SDN-6
K-31

I'll be bringing a friend and he said he would bring:

SCAR 16 and 17
Beretta ARX100
AR 15

There may be more. I plan on just coming up the day of and not spending the night prior like I used to. I will be traveling a lot lighter than normal.

I'm in!
First time in a couple years. (Since my son was born)
I'll bring an assortment of suppressed stuff 22, 9, 45, 5.56, 300blk, 308. Also bringing the m11/9. :)
ETA: Just as I was able to shoot tons of cool stuff my first time out, anyone is welcome to shoot my guns. Brass cased factory ammo please. (The steel doesn't run worth a shit in the mac anyway)
I am in need of a fixed bbl spacer for a TiRant 45 if anyone has a spare.;)
Planning on camping Friday and Saturday.

Will do jeep.   It was pretty unnerving calling doc on labor day to see when I could get in and to ask how to take care of it till then and being told to head straight to the ER after describing it.   Luckily it was still localized and the antibiotics knocked it down before it moved to the blog stream.   At this point I am down to just having a unni boot dressing with once a week check ups till the wounds finish healing.   I expect I'll get some scars as a reminder to be more careful in the future.

The real silver lining is that in going in for this I discovered that my blood pressure was through the roof and doc got me on a couple meds that have worked wonders for how I have been feeling.   After I hurt my knee last year I got down real bad and put on a lot of weight since I could barely get around.   I had been trying to loose weight for months but couldn't seam to make any progress.  

I have lost at least 30 lbs of water weight in the past couple weeks on those meds and my BP was down to 140/85 from 200/110 in a few days.   Finally starting to really feel like myself again for the first time in almost a year and really looking forward to being able to get back in the field shooting and hunting again.   Before those meds I was really worried I might be crippled for good.

UTC. (until Complete)

The ones I have been to start thinning out around 2-3pm, and the bulk of the people start packing up around 4-5pm. Then there is usually a group that get together for dinner after the event. It mostly depends on how far of a drive home it is for most people.

I will match the 7 foot vikings offer of $100.00 dollars.

Going to try to make it.  I'll bring a few guns, but they'll probably be pretty pedestrian compared to what it sounds like some of you guys have.  I'll bring a cooler with a couple twelve packs of soda and some water for folks to stay hydrated, too.  I've probably met a couple dozen HTFers over the years, but I look forward to seeing some new faces and old ones.

I probably won't go, but if you're in town for the dinner the night before, I can vouch that thevibe's restaurant is some good food and he's a nice guy.

Just finalized my plans.  I will be coming on Saturday and my g/f will meet me there sometime in the early afternoon with her two daughters.



I still have the old riding lawn mower that I will bring.  Does it need to be there before 9am or can it be rolled out during a cease fire?  It rolls well and would be easy to push out.

For the NRA voting members of the group I will have a petition to get Arfcom member SCDonttreadonme, aka Timothy Knight, on the NRA Board of Directors ballot.  He was instrumental in making the Colorado election recalls happen.  http://www.ar15.com/forums/t_1_5/1617923_Knight_for_NRA_Board________Nomination_help_needed.html



The petitions have to be in to the NRA by the end of September so time is running out.  If you have been an annual member for 5 years or a life member make sure you find me and sign the petition.

I've got his materials as well.  I've been swamped with work and won't/haven't had much time to circulate it.  If it helps consolidate things and provides more opportunities to help Knight, I can sign yours and if someone else wants to handle/help circulate the one I have that would probably work well.

I'll be shooting my Para black ops 14.45 1911 and 11in SBR .300BLK

Are we going to have "Hi my name is" stickers?

I have dropped it off at the range.  One of the guys camping has the key.  I MUST have the battery back before it gets shot up.
