OK, here is the latest update:

On New Years eve Day, we will be hosting an MG shoot at the Impact Zone in Brookshire, TX.

I met with the owners and the gameplan is this:

1.  The Beltfeds & Rifle caliber MGs will have their own bay.
2.  AR-15s and other Semi rifles will be in another bay.
3.  The big bay will be set up for a Rabbit shoot (SMG & Pistols) & Rifles when the rabbit shoot isn't going.  ($10.00 to enter, winner splits the pot witht he range).
4.  One bay will be set up with self re-setting steel targets.  This will be a Subgun & pistol only bay i.e. NO RIFLES).
5.  3-Gun Match/IDPA type course in the last bay.
6.  Clay pigeon for the shotgunners on the end.

There are three BBQ pits for those who want to cook.

The range fee is $15.00 to help the owner with annual upkeep and maintenance.


Parking:  Unlike the previous years, parking will be in the field in front of the bays.

EXCEPTION:  If you have NFA- especially beltfeds, you can park in the last bay.  Phil or I will direct you down to that bay and get you parked so you can set up.


SAFETY ISSUES:  
1.  The buddy system will be in place (see #3- we had an M-16 with one in the pipe stuck in a rack a few years ago).  
2.  MUZZLE DOWN:  Self explanatory- easier to live without a foot than a head (FOR MOST PEOPLE):)
3.  Tag-Outs (in the form of Zip ties) will be used wihen carrying arms off the line.  Onc the guy next to you has confirmed that your chamber is clear, the mag is out and the safety is on, a ZIP tie is to be placed in the chamber and the bolt closed on top of it.  This obviously provides a visual check and confirmation that the weapon is clear.

VENDERS and AMMO on site:
1.  A local ammo shop may be joining us to provide ammo.
2.  A local gun shop may also bring ammo and parts.

SWEEET! Looking forward to it.

Attention Machine Gun owners!!! (and people with cool sh$%)
This day is also Boombastic's Birth Day and you should let him shoot all your guns.

This year, the firing lines will be well marked and defined with police/caution tape.



On another note:

BOOMBASTIC, I am very sorry, but SC-Texas does not let anyone who refers to himself in the third person shoot SC-Texas' Machineguns!

Dig it?




Happy birthday!

SC-Texas will be bringing a lage slowfire upper on a M-11, a POF 9.25" bbl, an AC556 and maybe, a 1919 if he can find some links and a tripod.
SC-Texas will be wishing you a happy Birthday!

Bring as much as you think you will shoot, then add about 500 rounds.

Seriously, bring what you want to shoot and you can buy extra at the event.

Might want to think about bringing a case of clay piegons. They make great little reactive targets and targets on the centerfire rifle range were pretty far and few between.

I'm still not sure if I'm going to make it this year but if I do I'll try to remeber to bring that damn bucket of 223 brass I've been trying to give away to a reloader (not a scrap seller).

Does anybody have an MG-42 and a Thompson that I could shoot a little bit?
I love shooting Thompsons but have never tried an MG-42 before and have always wanted to.

Fot the MG-42, I have Romanian and Yugo 8mm whichever is preferable to you.

Phil ask to mention the rabbit shoot.  it's simple.  for ten bucks you get to shoot at ten clay birds that are thrown with a rabbit thrower (along the ground).  pistol and SMG only.  you split the pot with the range.  so if there are 10 people the pot is $100 and you get 50 if you break the most birds.  there will be a shoot off if there is a tie.

+1 if he is driving a vette.  I pulled a Honda out of the ditch last year.  The road ain't that bad at all, but a little clearance does tend to help.

So, hypothetically speaking, if someone here on the board drove a Neon (why????)  it would not be a good idea to drive all the way in.

Due to rain and the resulting mud creating a lack of parking space, in addition to the ranges being ankle deep in mud, we are postponing the shoot and moving it to Januay 7, 2007.

Even our alternate range will be under water.  Ask DevL about that!

Anyone have that video of DevL's car getting pulled out of the mud hole?

I'm glad we still plan on having it!

Got this whole box of shirts I need get rid of!!!

Got everyone's shirt, except for Shane-82.

Shane, I put in a 3XL to my friend, he read it as 3 XLs.  What I do have is last year's shoot shirt with the STG44 on the back in a 3XL that someone didn't claim, you can have that one for free.  Sorry about this.  Or if you want to wait, I'm sure others at the shoot will want one even though they've all been sold/handed to the people who asked for one and like last year, I'll order another set of shirts.  Whatever you want.

I have 6 extra XLs for anyone that wants to claim them.

3 extra size Large as well.

and a few Medium for the wifey/GF or youth that you bring along.

I'll put up a graphic of the shirts probably tomorrow so you know what you're getting.

$20 per shirt.

thanks, see you guys next sunday (hopefully Godwilling weather permitting! )
