TheHunmobile got back to the DFW area at about 9:30 last night, and I know he had to be hard at work today. I'm sure he'll be along directly, though.
BTW, that's not a bad picture, but Psyren looks [b]better[/b] than that in real life. |

Well imagestation is obviously not working for posting pictures anymore....

[b]Yesiree, hound, I am home![/b]
For those of you needing coordinates to the ETH Farm - let's just say look for [b]Crowell, Texas![/b] You get to Crowell, we'll get you the rest of the way home! [b]Yes, everyone who reads this thread is invited![/b] [:D] Just remember, boyz, this is the rolling plains of the Panhandle at the tail end of June and dress as appropriate! There are no air conditioners at the ETH Farm. There is no running water hooked up at the ETH Farm. [b]It is [u]1885[/u] in Texas, again![/u] So just bring what you think you'd need for camping out in Texas in the latter part of the 19th Century! Cots are always welcome! Sleeping bags make sense. There's plenty of motel rooms within 8 to 16 miles of the Farm for those of us who need relief! Eric The(ReliefSeeking)Hun[>]:)] |

Glad to see you all made it back safe and sound. Did any of you buy any new toys ? |
|
[b]Thx Eric![/b]
[b]ETH shoot campers,[/b] I thought this might also be a good idea for the ETH shoot: For the people planning on camping: A bunch of guys can pool money together to rent a room for the weekend. We would just use the hotel room for the shower or to recover from heat-exhaustion. This might cut down on the over-all odor of us poor semi-auto weenies. Pulling the trigger EVERY TIME is a alot of work! I for one could use a shower after a long day in the TX sun. [b]Jarhead22:[/b] If you have ETH Farm GPS Coords. Pls email them to me. -Thx! |

Welcome back BRC attendees... I see you guys had a blast!
I was busy this last weekend: closed on my new house, and am waiting for them to finish up a few cosmetic things before I move in... (At least I got free crown molding for the delay...) |

View Quote Not a bad idea, because depending on how many folks come, we may have a bit of a rub getting everyone set up in a 20 x 30 room. There is, however, a state park across the Pease River where we all go and take sh|t, showers and shaves! It's the Copper Breaks State Park and it's got great bathrooms! $1.00 per person per day fee for day-use. And in June, the Park will be empty! Eric The(Happy)Hun[>]:)] |

Quoted: How hot are you people talking? View Quote Hmmm... you bring up a good point here. Will there be any trees/shade? |
|
100 F, or thereabouts.
Good news - humidity, around 15 - 20% Just keep out of the direct sun for any great length of time and you'll do just fine! Eric The(ThinkLiquidRefreshments!)Hun[>]:)] |

Quoted: 100 F, or thereabouts. Eric The(ThinkLiquidRefreshments!)Hun[>]:)] View Quote Good lord that's hot!!! That's almost too hot to golf. |
|
With the humidity where it is, 100F is nothing.
Maybe I'm just used to 110F or so and Houston's humidity. |

One of my favorite Texas stories: It's the month of January and we are leaving the motel around 9AM. I am sitting in the car having just started it doing absolutely nothing, while sweat rolls off my head. As I tell this story (here) someone always asks "Didn't the rental car have AC?" - Yea but, I had to let the windows defrost first. Weather fit for a fish.

I say we build a weight powered trebuchet on the farm!

Note to [b]1GUNRUNNER[/b]:
We ordinarily leave for the Hun Farm on Friday morning, so if you get in early, you can ride out there with one of us. We leave Sunday around Noon to come back, but we can change our plans to fit your schedule a bit. D/FW is on the way back to Dallas, so we can drop you off if need be. That's just how we Texans are, as you well know, being an Honorary Texan yourself! Sorry to respond to your IM like this, but mine ain't working! Eric The(ComeOnDown!)Hun[>]:)] |

Mr Hun,
My dad has taken a fancy to assualt weapons because of me.[:D] He has an interest in coming down. Would you mind if he joined us at the farm ? |
|
Certainly, [b]ilikelegs[/b], your father may join us.
He will be welcome to join the geezers in the motel room in Crowell during the...er...hotter parts of the day! You younguns can handle the heat, but it takes a real toll on geezers, such as myself! Eric The(Over50)Hun[>]:)] |

I am anxiously waiting.
I may even have something to celebrate that weekend. I am keeping tight lipped about that for now though until it becomes final. [;)] But if it does, I MAY buy a couple of round of drinks for everyone in attendance at the local watering hole on Sat. night. Please keep your fingers crossed for me. |

Hmmm, LT, are 'we' going to get 'lucky'?[:D]

BTW I hear you have a KelTec 9MM for sale at the last gunshow. If you still have it on the next Market Hall next weekend, I may be interested. Can you hook a brotha up? |

You did read where I made the 700 mile trip to the BRC in 9.5 hours, did you not? That's an average of about 81 MPH! Heh-heh![:D] Eric The(SpeedDemon)Hun[>]:)] |

So... I hear some people are meeting out at the next gun show. When/where? If I am not moving, I will try and be there.
|

Actually, I have quite a few tables, but not where we'll be neeting!
We're meeting at Brother Nick's tables right next to the concession stand! Let's say at Noon? Eric The(Helpful)Hun[>]:)] |

The gun has been stored for a while and never fired. I was on the ar.com's AK site and a few guys walked me through it. Looks cool... So I take it you found one of us who knew how to remove an AK stock??? |
