Let me know where to send the money. If you want PM me with your adress and I will send you a check. Thanks for organizing this event to help the wounded heroes.

This is for a good cause & the more people the better. |
|
I will definitely be able to make it. My brother and 2 friends will also be coming.
yacataco +3 Can't wait......I've never even SEEN a full auto rifle shot before. I can't say thanks enough for putting this together. I'll bring 30 hamburgers and buns as well I wish I could have made it to the easter shoot, but I had a test that week and couldn't make it. |
|
Thank You !!! |
|
|
as long as I know ahead of time, i can bring mine with me. |
|
|
I can't believe I didn't look for this thread sooner, sorry Omi. I'll definitely be there.
What do you still need, just ice? I could provide electrical, lighting, generator, fans, etc. if needed.......sorry, no bullhorn. I also have a 32" Viewsonic LCD TV that is ready for some bullets and/or tanerite. BTW, How much will the raffle tickets be selling for? |
|
If you can bring Ice that would be great. Maybe some BBQ sauce. Im also in need of some big coolers. Anyone have some? I have two smaller ones I will bring. |
|
|
I will do ice. I have some coolers, but I'll also look into coolers and possibility of "Mamoth Grill" and/or Concession Trailer from 1st National Bank of South Florida.....although it is July 4th. www.1stnatbank.com/community/ |
|
|
That would be awesome !! Let me know Monday if you have any luck ... |

Your the man -- THX !!! |

AWESOME TY !!! |

Alright here is my list ...
Im getting name tags, liability waivers, raffle tickets, targets, tannerite, and tons of ice and water. I still need to get a hold of a bull horn and several really large coolers. The 3 people that offered to help being RO's Here is my plan ... We currently have 4 RO's including me. Id like to get one more person to help being an RO just in case. Volunteers? One RO at the line at all times. One at the gate collecting $$$ and giving forms/rules/name tags. one running the shoot/drill/etc. Two enjoying the event. My wife is going to be helping at the gate. The idea is to rotate so 2 RO's are on break and gets to enjoy the event. Sounds good guys? Lets get some ideas opinions on this plan? Remember this is going to be a pretty big event and we don't know the skills/background and safety levels of all the participants. Since the event starts at 11am do you think I can get all the RO's to be there at 10:00 am to setup? |
|
We were going to try and get there early to help set up, maybe around 9 am??
|
|
I was not thinking it would take that long. but you are probably right. 9:30 I think would be better to setup. |
|
|
I have the current liability and rules documents ready to go. What do you guys think?
Liability Waiver Rules The liability may change since we are hoping to get a more specific one form an attorney. |
|
You can count me in for RO. I never don't it but can't be that dificult.
|
|
If I wanted to put up with baby sitter shit like that, I'd go to Trail Glades. I'll just set up my own shoots at Henry's. Last time rules were added it was an annoyance, now theres liability waivers and name tags? What's next, holding hands on the firing line? No offense TJ, nothing personal against you but that shit is lame. |
|
|
Is this coming from the guy who refuses to wear eyes and ears? Seriously, if you don't like the rules just don't come. ETA: Name tags were recommendations from the last shoot. This is not going to be a small event and the supports want to CYA. Cant blame them in todays world. |
||
|
I wear ears, just not eyes and I don't plan on going, any more. Like I said, not that I have anything personal with you but one of the last fun spots we have down here in SoFL, has turned into Markham Park. If someone can legally buy a firearm, then you don't need to hold their hand dude. Either way, enjoy the shoot. |
|||
|
Yea you wear ears -- what were they .45 or 9mm rounds you put in your ears the last time?
I also don't have a problem with you man but you are not going to find many people who agree with you on this one. I normally would not do a waiver -- but this event is different. The rest of the rules are what you would find on every range and every event. Even if they were not my rules, The range has mandatory eyes/ears policy. |
|
Nah, whatever not trying to turn this thread into a cry fest. Enjoy your shoot fellas, take some pictures. |
|
|
TY ... |
|
|
if i dont have to work im in and ill try to bring 3 buddy with me !!!
|
|
Good move... Safety in mind is a + 10000000000... I want to enjoy the shoot safetly with my two guests that just came back from IRAQ... |
|
|
Agree. Safety before fun. Some times, some of the people that comes to this events are first timers and don't have firearms common sense. |
||
|
One quick question, what about targets?? Do we need to bring our own? Are they available over there?
|
|
Bring as many targets as you can. i will be providing some for the competitions but you still need some for your targets ... |
|
|
I'm thinking of bidding on this and bringing it as a target. The problem will be that no one will listen to the "hold your fire" commands...

I will bring 60 hot dog buns, a medium size cooler and ice for it.
