OK it is on for June 28th-29th.
RIGHT NOW!!! If you haven't figured it out yet, this is gonna be pretty frickin' big. Stop slackin and just get down there. 9:00am exit 77 I-5 Park & Ride DON'T BE LATE!!!! Are you guys gettin antsy yet? |
|
Remember that June 15 is fathers day. I don't know how many people would not go do to family functions that weekend.
I have vacation June 30-July 4 and was thinking about going up to Omak again during that time. So I guess at this point I am undecides as to which weekend would be best. |
|
I was hoping for June 7th, 14th, or 21st, but I have an idea why those dates are not included.
Either way, you folks who have not been to one of these shoots, I assure you it is a nice shooting spot and a great time! Those that have been... chime in and let them tally up the attendees :) |
|
Well guys I got word today.
It looks as it is back to work next week and we are scheduled for 7-11's or 12's. So I will see you guys this winter. I would still love to see you guys have a shoot down here. I will help as much as I can. |
|
Gentlemen,
June 14th is also Flag Day and The Army's Birthday!! Freedom is not Free! No Better way to honor those that served than a major "blast-off!" But I'm game for any weekend, or weekday! or whatever! Lets shoot!!! |
|
Well guys I know it is a ways off, but I am in for July 26-27.
|
|
Well just start that as the NEXT one! I could go shooting damned near every weekend. We can do this once every other month, no prob. Especially in the summer. I'm chime in for June 28-29. Are we going to go up Friday to set up (6-28)? I'm in for that too if we do. {must remember tannerite, glowsticks,propane, roadflares....} |
|
|
I am in for late June. Its soon, I will probably have my rifle done, and school will be out.
|
|
I suppose if I really had my arm twisted I could go on the 28th and 29th of this month......ow, ow, OK I'll go for that one too. Are two votes allowed???
|
|
Ok, I voted.
I'll just be going down there for Saturday though,then coming back home that evening. There would be room for one rider in my truck, if someone from up Seattle way is waffling on whether or not to go because they don't want to mkae the drive. |
|
Boom Baby...6/28 and 29 would be great....for some underfolder sweetness. The pit in Chehalis/PeEll is very nice and has distance up to about 396 feet.
|
|
Can somebody gives mes direction to this place??? I would like to check it out sometime hopefully when everybody is there....
|
|
Usually we meet at the park and ride off of I-5 in Chehalis and kind of convoy our way up to the pit. It is kind of hard to find if you have never been there before. Of course if you get lost I'm sure JAFO is willing to meet you for a beer in Raymond! |
|
|
I take it WAC was good to you? :) |
|
|
You'd better start jamming the poll then because that day is winning! |
|
|
Is everyone gonna be cool with the dates that the group picks?
|
|
I cannot be there on Fathers Day but any other time would be fine. If we end up picking that weekend (June 14-15) I would just have to come home on Saturday night or real early Sunday.
|
|
I'm sure everyone will survive without me or SuperClucker there :) |
|
|
Yes but at this stage in the game there is no reason not to TRY to make it conveinient for at least as many shooters as possible! besides, it just wouldn't be the same w/o you! |
|
|
How about a few more votes? SCollins, you still around? DeepSeaSnakes, you back from Basic and AIT yet? Vader, you vote yet? 007? CavVet?
*JAFO waits to see if he's voted off of Chehalis Island* |
|
Let's say that the end of the day on TUESDAY the 3rd is the last day that counts for voting.
We can then start arranging times and specifics for a shoot. I hope that everyone will try and make this shoot. Myself, 2WP and various others loving getting together and we as a Washington shooting community SHOULD get together and celebrate our RKBA |
|
I voted the other day.....ya cant bitch if ya dont vote! |
|
|
Only one day left to decide. Come on guys, we need some more feedback. I don't just want this to turn into me and scrun and the West Seattle crew blowing crap up all day and getting drunk at night. That would be just another weekend!
|
|
As of 3:00pm it is looking like the 28th-29 of June. Still time to vote until 7:00pm tonight.
Everyone start clearing your schedules now |
|
Chehalis Shoot Saturday June 28th followed by a night of hard drinking
Smaller shoot Sunday June 29th and clean up. Please IM me so I can get a list together, with transport info (some guys might need rides or want to carpool.) also leave contact info. I will see if I can get this thing together. Thanks!!! I hope to see everyone there |
|
I just voted for the 28-29th weekend only to find out my wife works both days (an extreme rarity). It seems I can never coordinate my schedule with your activities. If there is another at the end of July, I'm in.
|
|
Hmm, that means I have a gun show yet to stock up on ammo at.
|
|
2 WAC shows, if you ever come up to Monroe. There's one up here this weekend. |
|
|
I'm in. I can take someone if they need a ride. Will probably go Friday night after work. It's nice to spend the extra time setting things up and then partying Friday night as well.
Why does that mean you can't go? When my wife is out of time working all weekend that just means I have to have twice as much fun (for me AND her)! |
|
|
My wife and I are both in providing we can get a sitter. Looks like I'll be spending the next few weeks loading ammo.
What's the format for this? Distance? Targets? Any rules? |
|
Format: Open shoot bring targets, cold range every 30 minutes or so.
Distance: I am not sure 2WP, Jafo? Rules: Be safe, not shitty beer (unless your 2WP), everyone cleans up. |
|
It has been generally accepted in the past that no drinking will be done during the shoot. There are too many of us running around and too much chance of a mis-hap. While partying at night though we tend to break out some tannerite and propane bottles to shoot at with a little tracer fire. This is a lot more controlled as there is only one person shooting and everyone else is waiting for the fireworks. If anyone is worried about safety, just ask the participants of the last two shoots there. It has been very, some would say too, safe. Nobody wants to cause or be the subject of an accident! |
|
|
Hopefully I'll have my rifle by then. Got my RRA M4 upper coming here Monday and just waiting for the Lower to come in stock and for the FFL too arive. Chehalis looks a little far away but I'll see what I can do.
|
|
I am in, but prolly only be able to be there for Saturday. I will also prolly be bringing a new member to the board with me. I don't think nightsniper is coming as he will be on vacation at that time.
|
|
Hey bigscrun, you should edit your first post to add the names of all who have said they would for sure go and update it as people confirm or deny.
|
|
I plan on it. For sure.
Did someone say tracers are good? I know I have some I've been saving. |
|
Sure! Look at them all flock!!! When I can't be there. I should be able to make a token showing at some point or another...
I am actually thinking about working nights so only time will tell. I go back to work tomorrow. Safety first at that pit! There is a faily well established rules of the pit that the veterans will have to relay to the virgins. |
|
That should tell you something shouldn't it? If it'll make you feel better we'll all arrange for a "we miss you" lawn job to be done at your place. |
|
|
That's why were sending CombatJack in. |
|
|
It's just not going to be the same without you either 1GUNRUNNER. I am going to miss your improvised logging equipment, the way you "taper off" early in the evening, and of course TBD!
|
|
My wife wants to know if she'll be the only woman there.
What about logistics? Food, water/beverages, toilet facilities? I have a small portable gas grill, just large enough to feed 4-6 people. I can also bring a CD player. I hope you like country/western. Do we need to bring our own target holders or are there objects we can hang the targets on? |
|
|
|
|
Am I to assume that since JAFO is not on the list that he does not plan on attending? I know you wanted a diff date but does this mean you can't go? The metropolis of Raymond will declare this a day of mourning!
|
|
I would be interested if it was the later option in july that way I could save for it.
