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].

If you guys are going to go, I would strongly suggest taking an extra day to see the sights. Joseph and the surrounding area is a place of beauty and you will want to go take a look.

You can always take a drive up to Hat Point and find out who the real men are!

UPDATE:

Ok, I seem to have jumped the gun a bit. Sorry!

The shoot is still on, however.

So are we all going to camp?

Posted: 1/30/2006 8:31:56 AM EDT

[#10]

I will be going.
Anyone want to get a spot on the line as well?
I have a camper that will sleep a few...but will likely drive my little pickup and tent it as it will cost me a fortune to drive that truck with camper all the way out there. Anyone have a large wall tent?

ETA: HOW MANY SPOTS ON THE LINE DO WE NEED?

I can hook ups up iwth a 12x16 wall tent or use my 2 12x12 spike tents, well one of them is my dad's that I would have to borrow, but up to the group as what to do.

I will regret saying this but "What happens inthe wall tent, statys in the wall tent!"

We really need to get a count of spaces needed and get our $$ off.

Cape, I'll leave the stove at home if ya want to bring that propane heater like you did at the last shoot.

Actually, 2 tents may be a better bet depending on how many of us there are. I may bring the large one for sleeping and my 10x10 for a cook tent????

I've got one, may be able to borrow one, but we've got some time untill that gets important.

Here is the big one now, depending on the weather, well, either way, we will want either a bail of hay or straw to line the large tent for a floor. That area is a hay quarentine area, so we'll need to pick one up somewhere in Enterprise. Can't haul it from home.

So, biggest question.......are we going to be the only ones there?

Can't read eh?

I count 7, but realize this, it's early, only Jan and the shoot is in June. Long ways off, but I do think we need to get our dollars in on the space soon, I'm just waiting on Staff's stance on wether or not we can do it under the arfcom name.

Maybe if you offer up a couple cars we can get a couple free spots on the line.

Can’t make it an overnight thing (with you guys, I don’t know it I would want to), but I’m all for making a long day out of it. Leave early in the morning, shoot, BS, hang out, leave and be home that night

If any of the ArfCom folks need straw or hay, let me know and I'll hook you up.

And yes, the county is a hay quarrentine area, so you can only import certified weed free hay.

Ignore the stuff at the top of the thread that PromptCritical posted. Some of it is now changed/incorrect. Current info can be found at our web site: www.eaglecapsa.com

I'll try and monitor this thread, but if you have something that really needs to be answered, email me at [email protected]

Thanks for your support of our shoot!

Also, just as a heads up, this is our very first organized shoot at our new range, so there are bound to be little problems and issues that pop up during the shoot, so please bear with us. Also, since this is a new facility, it's still fairly primitive. The firing line will be gravel, but no overhead cover. Camping area will be primitive.

Thanks. I was a member 4 (or so) years ago, but just got busy with other sites.

Will do. Also, if you want to get an ArfCom group together, we would be willing to cut a package deal for line spaces, gate passes, camping, etc.

Also, if anyone is an NRA certified RSO, we'd be willing to trade a gate pass for 4 hours of your time working as an RSO.

Wow, some serious action here! Sweet!

Sorry about the incorrect info. Dammit. Good thing Eric dropped by to thump me on the head for inaccurate info. (That's good: Builds character) I'll fix the original post to reflect current news.

If the site gods give the go-ahead, will we need some sort of signs or something?

How many lanes we gonna need on the line? Figure 1 for every three or four people? Maybe a vendor table to hawk our wares?

Dunno. Just throwing some ideas out there...

I wish! Being the new guy at the plant I don't have but a few days vacation and I have to save those for the plant shutdown days that occur during Christmas, Memorial Day, and Labor Day. That way I get paid for those days instead of having a short paycheck.

Run a full auto mag for me boys!!

Will do.

I would be willing to come down a day early and help with setup. Just let me know.

Peta, you should contact staff and tell them about the shoot and let them know we are planning a AR15.com spot on the line. We can supply a banner and would like ot give away some arfcom prizes, memberships, shirts and stickers and such. Also, we should try nad do another tannerite buy before then. I would like to take a couple cases down myself.

BTW, I am watching surviving the nuge and he just dumped a 20 round mag from his AR!!!!

I'll probably come a day early or so. I'm sure you can find something for me to help out with.

Knowing EK, I'll probably be put to work holding targets...

Cape, I already IM'd staff on the arfcom participation of this and would think that they are watching it??
(big brother and all

)

I want to help, I want our corner of the gun world to be a part of this, as much as we can

So, +1 on the early for set up part, and I'll also contact Daniel to see about another buy for us.

Sounds like a blast, or quite a few of them??

I took vacation today for this, June 15th thru the 20th. The extra day coming home was more for me to relax and clean guns

Posted: 1/30/2006 7:34:45 PM EDT

I can't garantee anything this far out, but if things worked out I might be able to help with the shoot or an arfcom table.

Keep us updated!

Sounds good. We just had a group buy on tannerite, thus the reason for mentioning it.

Email sent as I will be around to help at least a day early.

Sweet! Now the hunt is on for ammo! Know a good supply of cheap tracers for the night shoot?

WS4LIF: If you are able to procure an M16, My Beta-C mag is at your disposal, just let me do a dump or two.

You think SteyrAUG would come if we asked nicely? I gotta see the Shrike live and in person...
