This AR was put together only the night before the shoot. That is SP1Grrl in the background going, "yeaa!!" Its her rifle. But since it was put together at the last minute, she gave hubby the honor of firing it first. After upping his life insurance. AR15 AR15 Bump by TexasEd Dueling-Subguns Krink |

Looking forward to the Turkey vid or pics. ILL and I left before that unfortunately.

I found the website where LeonUK conspires to scam us into thinking he was from the UK in order to get to shoot some cool toys!

Hey, I have Old Timer's uh, whatever they call it. And I was at the shoot. I'm lucky I remember MY name, much less all the new ones I met at the shoot, screen names, real names, dooooh. I really would like some labels. Seriously, you guys apparently see each other a lot more than some of us newcomers. Please?
|
|
I smell a FED (and your board name looks FEDish...) |
|
|
A first name and a screen name will do. Nothing sinister. In fact, a sreen name will do since I am on the forum quite a bit. Just faces to go with names. Please? |

Looks like y'all had a good time. Now I'm kinda wishing that I didn't spend my lazy Sunday napping on the couch.

Big thanks to Makarov Mami and CockedNLocked. I hope everyone chipped in for food.... it was a great day!
Thanks to Hound for being the full-time range officer, and giving the safety briefing. I know it is extremely difficult to keep an event like this to any level of organization... a lot of shooters, with a lot of different wants, in a small space. He did a GREAT job of keeping things moving and safe. |
|
Thanks Mami and CNL for putting on the shoot! You went all out on the food for us.
Brisket was perfect. |
|
Thanks CNL and Makarov Mami. Little Soowah and Tanlegsintx had a fantastic time. It was nice being able to put more names and faces together.
Pics to follow! just got home. |

Wow Guys. Thay was FUN. Mischa is still running around tonight asking when he gets to shoot his shotgun again. He calls everything a shotgun. We had a good time and everything felt SAFE. Your food was good too from what I understand. Wife nibbled with the Kid. She said it was alot nicer than she figured it would be, and she had a sh^& fit when she heard tannerite for the first time. John, Mark, it was good to meet /see ya again. Thanks for the fun, and a place to see if my mags work.... They were crap, guess I will stick with my Orlite mags. good enough for the isralies..... good enough for me.

Many thanks to C&L and Mami for putting this together and thanks to Hound for helping keep it safe. Tons of fun today. I just hope some one got video of the turkey filled with tannerite. I got peppered with bits of it standing at the 50 yard line.

Thanks to all that came for an afternoon of fun in the sun with guns.
If I missed saying Hi to anyone Im sorry and it wasnt intentional. I was wearing thin towards the end after no sleep for the last couple of days and being up all night cooking. I would like to thank Hound for his part in making this a safe and enjoyable get together. He did a fantastic job (btw ... how many times did you go over the berm for relief ) Thanks to the guys that donated some ammo for me to be able to shoot my new toy today since I didnt get any yesterday at the show due to circumstances beyond my control. Thanks to everyone for their help in cleanup after the shoot. You dont know how many times weve gone to the range and others have left more trash and junk behind than you could believe. This is probably the only open range in N/Tx that is open to the public with little or no restrictions on firearms other than common sense and courtesy. With the class of people we had today at the range hopefully we can enjoy the location for many years to come. Hopefully everyone went home full and happy today. We had 51 people signed in, not including kids and several that didnt make the sign-in. Im guessing around 65 with kids. and yes their were enough donations made to cover the food and a little to spare. thats why I didnt ASK for anything more than a small donation of your choosing, since I knew you guys would come through with flying colors. I took quite a few pics today and hopefully I wasnt shaking too badly from exaustion and pain and at least some of them will come out for me to post I would also like to thank who ever it was that allowed M_M to get behind the .50 for the first time today. I was determined that today would be the day that she would break her cherry on a .50 and you made this possible. Again I thankyou Leon . Our guest of honor. Hopefully we made your visit to Texas a memorable one and you will again come to vist in the future If I missed anyone in thanking you for any part you played in making this an enjoyable afternoon, consider it done at this time mm38 you owe me a commander since you sold mine to M_M. and dont say I can shoot it too since she already has it under lock and key and I cant get to it. |

ummmm, you were having a good time? |

(CnL's big long post...)
^^^^^^^^^^^^ What HE said... Seriously, it was a super turn out, and an awesome day! Thanks to everyone who showed up and made it great! I really think that this was the best day I've had since moving to Texas! (And I LOVE my new pistol!) (Oh Santa, I'm going to be veryyy good this year, so may I please have a .50 cal of my very own...?) Now bring on the turkey vids!!! |

Ice, Ice Baby! (Damn, I wish there was video of the Tactical Ballet...) |

Thanks for clearing that up, LT. Now I'm going have to change my screen name to Hefty-FED. Damn, I'm old and fat! No wonder there are no mirrors in my house. They are all broken! Seriously, I had a great time. Totally awed by the firepower that showed up. I can't explain why it took me so long to get into the AR stuff and this great forum. I'm proof positive that old dogs can learn new tricks. I may be slow, but I'm ahead of a lot of my friends. Thanks All (and LT) Be talking to you on the forum. |

As a relative newbie to ARFCOM...I want to say thanks to CnL and M_Mami for a near perfect day, and that aboslutely had to be the best day I can remember with firearms....Hound, thanks for the clear direction/safety and patience not to have fired a single shot all day with all the fun we were having!!!!
You all have impressed me greatly and my next question is....WHEN CAN WE DO THIS AGAIN!!! |
|
I gots a shitload of pics to go through. But I'm F'ing tired, so I'll post them in the morning.
I have [Beavis]Fire! Fire! Firefirefire![/Beavis] |

cheers to all involved in making this happen.
Thanks to all for the weekend. The gunshow, lunch{well, for the opportunity for everyone to sit down and meet}, dinner{sorry, that I missed this part, had munchen duty}, and the awesome shoot today. Helluva good time was had and won't be forgotten for a long long time. THANKS again to all, wganz ¶ ETA:> HAIL TO THE CHEF!! That was some fine cooking there. |

Everyone,
It was great to finally put some faces with some names this weekend. Sp1grrl, ShortywithanAR and I all had a awesome time. Thanks to everyone for letting us pretty much shoot your guns at anytime- it was too much fun. CnL and MM: Thank you for the food- it was great to meet you both. Sorry about your cat, I hope it comes back. If it doesn't, it was Jens fault. lol. Damn cat is fast. Bach- The machine gun sensai. I need a M2 now along with about $50k of other toys. You seem to have more fun letting people shoot your gear than shooting them yourself. Thanks again for the instructions. Alex gets a gold star for starting the range fire. Tell him I want that pack of smokes back that I let him borrow. I know he is only nine but he has to learn that smokes ain't free. Hound- Range master extraordinare and comedian. For an open range and basically a free for all MG shoot we felt totally safe. Except when the smoked turkey exploded and took out a couple kids next to me (about 70 m from the turkey). It looked like someone RPG'ed a playground. Made me laugh. (it really wasn't bad but I like telling the story that way) Legs- I didn't even get a hug when you left. WTF? I saw you looking at my ass all day. Just beacuse TRG wasn't there doesn't make it right and I feel like second fiddle to boot. At least you sat in the smoking area with the other cool people. Claire, John, Scott, Mike (RenegadeX), Brian, Kevin, Mike again, Ty, FailSAFE and Al- Thanks for the laughs. I am still laughing. I promise to never dance on the firing range again. MaroonFeather- Thanks for letting us shoot your AR-50. Now I have to get a BMG but at least I don't have to try to sweet talk Jen into it now. She is a convert and that is worth a lot- I owe you about 10 cases of beer. LeonUK- I hope you had a great time. I also hope you make bail after you tell your mates in the UK what you did on your holiday. Come back and shoot the HK any time. I'll call you when I get to Reading this spring. Anyone else I met today and forgot to mention- it really was great to meet you all. Jen is posting the pics and vids here in few mins. |

He's back, thanks! |

Alright who has the freaking Turkey Vid Dangit!!!
Oh and Jason, I'm not that funny looking. You can quit laughing now. My mother says I am quite a handsome man. |
