What time is the shoot going to start? I would like to meet some new people and fire off a few hundred rounds. If I can show I would have my wife with me more than likely.

I'll be there 7:30ish (heck, I might just camp out Friday night) and stay until it's dark. It is pretty crowded on Saturdays but we should be able to commandeer a bench or two and rotate folks up to the line.

if we have a large group which it looks like we will, we should all bring some lawn chairs and maybe a bbq and set up on the grass to the left of the range. we can take over a couple of benches and alternate between shootin' and shootin' the shit around the BBQ. I can bring some burgers.

i'm in and i might bring a brother or two, this will be my first meet with fellow ARFCOMERS.

I'm still a definite maybe.

I don't have any side jobs lined up for that weekend right now, but if one comes up I can't pass on the money.

If I do make it I've got a bunch of folding chairs and a table or two.
I'll know better if I'll make it a week or so before hand.

Heck, maybe I'll win the lottery on Wed. and won't have to worry about side jobs

. I will be leaving here early to get there by 9am.

Food - Im willing to bring whatever, I can pick up some bubba burgers 2/3 pounders

Drinks - Coke, Pepsi, Mt Dew, Sundrop, doesnt matter.

So come celebrate my last weekend of single life with me.

Hell, if my recent injury doesn't throw a monkey wrench in the process of recovery, I'll be there with my wife (1911 fan-even has her own) and two kids (10 & 12 year olds kids who are avid AR15 shooters) and weather permitting we will camp out Sat. night......

Put me down as fence-sittin', along with a buddy - got to make sure work schedule cooperates. Be great to meet more of the Carolina's Arf team - Got to meet Uh_Salt and his better half a couple of months ago out there.

Planning on camping over Saturday night if all works out.

What can I bring? (aside from the various AR's and other implements of flash and bang)

I may take you up on that, I've only shot an AR in .50AE, never the Beowulf. I think I preferred a Marlin Guide Gun in .45-70 over the .50AE though

Sadly, I don't think I can make it. The "un-goodly" guy on my opposite shift has taken that entire weekend off. I have been scrambling to get it covered, but it doesn't look very good. Somebody please dump a mag and have a few Uwharrie dogs for me.
