After lobby day in VA last year it was my intention to get involved in with what is now the American Pioneer Corps
A lot was going on then on a personal level and now there is simply a lot going on. While I think that’s something to still pursue I do have a issue I will be honest my issue is my hesitation to do an event when I don’t know any of you. That said maybe a informal beer/dinner at a place like Wild Aces Greer or some friendly kinda place would be a start. Who would be down with next Monday say 630-7ish ? |

If your in then just post and I will call in for a table based on the count we have by Sat.
We all obviously have at least one thing in common. Honestly meeting a bunch of members when I was in VA was pretty cool. We are a very diverse group for sure |

Quoted: Monday 1/18? View Quote Yes I only have Sundays off. I know Monday may prevent some that are a bit farther away but if we can get something going we can always adjust future dates and times. Hey even if it’s just 3-4 of us it’s time for all of us to start getting to know each other. No one needs to volunteer more info than they are comfortable with. However networking even for business etc will keep are investments within like minded individuals. Skills that may help each other. Swap meets etc. Lots of good things are possible, but at worst you blow a few bucks on some wings and a beverage |

It'll likely just be me.....most of my friends are still back in the gulag for the time being...
|
|
Anyway we can do a little later? I can’t be there til 715/730 but can just come late if it doesn’t work for y’all
|
|
would love to attend but I'm out, mornings and days are my only option at this point... but enjoy your eats...
|
|
Just get there when you can get there....look for the table with the red dots going everywhere
|
|
I’m fine with 715 if that doesn’t mess anything up
Looks like it may be a small group but I’ll go even if I’m by myself |
|
Im going to try and make this. Will see about bringing a shooting buddy of mine that isnt on Arf as well.

Doesn’t sound like it will be to many but I’m still good to go on Monday
|

I’ll get there about 715 and grab a spot.
I’ll figure out something so everyone knows who I am |

I'll be there as well. Just need to know how to tell who you are.....
|

I’ll grab a table about 715
I’ll text my cell number to you so you can message when you come in. For anyone else I’ll just post what I’m wearing before I get there. I’ll try to grab something that sticks out. |
|
|
I sent those who said they would most likely make it my cell.
For anyone on the fence waiting to come let me be clear. This isn’t about starting a “ group” , planing the apocalypse or selling Am-Way It’s about starting to establish more community between people with similar Intrest. I hate to even say this next part . Please refrain from idiotic conversation IE things that are not legal if you do come. |

So apparently everything in downtown Grear closed. Wild Aces Blueridge Brewery The Mason Jar, Southern Growl etc
Moving to Monterey‘s Mexican 6130 West Wade Hampton. I had contact numbers for everyone that one hopefully this find you if it doesn’t I apologize |
|
|
Guys thanks for coming out I had a good time.
If Monday is good I’ll plan another next month |
|
Yes. It was good to meet you guys. Monday is fine with me.....hell just about any day is good for me, with enough notice....
|

I’m going to make this a once a month get together.
There were 6 of us last week so hopefully more will come out next time. For some reason every place in the area started closing on Monday’s. I’m going to switch to Tuesday ( edit it’s feb 23rd not March ) at 730. Stay posted for where downtown Greer. I want to check out the mask BS etc. Reloading etc was a big topic so let’s make this a swap meet as well as dinner . If you have ammo primers powder etc then bring it on. Make a list and bring it inside you can swap after dinner etc. I’ll I ask is stay legal and ethical. If the swap meet goes well I’ll see if we can find a spot in the future that we don’t need to be discreet. When it comes to ammo and guns just remember if your not a FFL don’t try to be one. @jibs009 @chadsc @johnqpublik |

I'll sort through my stash and bring what I am willing to part with for trade. I've got some powders and different calibers of brass... And thanks for organizing this, and handling the logistics. |

View Quote You’ll fit right in. Magnets are probably a little easier. Scuba definitely quicker lol. I got certified when I was a teenager but haven’t dove in a long time. I know there’s at least one G 43 mag with a TT baseplate in Keowee. The only time I’ve ever bumped a mag release it shot into the water like I did it on purpose. Any of you guys into Percision rimfire or want to be? |

View Quote Not sure if the drive is worth it for you but you’re always welcome. If this starts to gain a little traction, a Summer meet up or two is something I’ve thought about. |

Thanks. I haven't "gone anywhere" longer than 50 minutes away since the end of September. I'll keep watching the meetup threads for an excuse for a drive. PSA on Woodruff Rd is a 90 mile drive for me.
I live 6 miles from the PSA store in Columbia. To keep a joke running, I'm thinking of checking out PSA in G-vegas to see if all they have is Keymod accessories in ranger green. Just like PSA-Columbia/Fern. |

Hey I fixed it in ten post but Feb 23rd at 730 is Next Meetup.
I am a month off because my brain is fried. Looks like we will use a private dining area at Tipsey Taco. One of the guys knows the owner and I was told they are like minded. Sorry for the mistake on the date. Also feel free to bring a friend if they want to come. |

There are a ton of fun stores in the upstate worth a trip normally. Right now maybe not so much |
