I can't make any promises, but if it's still around I may be able to donate a stripped car door. Gotta check with my dad on that one. I'll bring the 12"X20" IDPA, 1/2" thick... |

I have some plant hangers like this http://digital.hammacher.com/Items/12182/12182_1000x1000.jpg I would imagine that would work just fine as long as you are ok with the possibility of it getting hit.
I'll do a count before the shoot to see exactly how many pieces of steel I have. I think I have 4 pieces of 1/2" AR500 but I'll have to check. I have a few target stands as well if people want to shoot paper. Either Sat or Sun works for me...Saturday is slightly better, but it doesn't really matter. |

OK, time to talk with the wife and see if I can reserve the weekend for some "me" time... :) She won't come, but my son might want to... will a 11 year old boy be OK, or too young?

I can handle being on good behavior but I don't know about the rest of these guys No need to behave, he's been around my fraternity brothers since he was born... when he was 1, and started saying Dump Truck, he pronounced it Dum Fuck. My college buddies asked him about that dump truck he loved so much 15,000 times in one weekend. (laughing every time and he loved the attention and the laughs...) On monday when i picked him up from daycare, the lady pulled me aside and said she needed to talk with me... he had been using languge that was not appropriate. So i picked up a truck and said "What's this?" to my son.... "Dum Fuck". Then she understood... 
I think he'd be well behaved, but i have no problem with a "no kids" rule if that's the rule... i'll have fun either way, it's a matter of if i'm camping out in a small tent, or a bigger one.

I also respect the idea that sometimes people don't want kids around... |

I'm in. I forgot about this thread after the new england forum was divided up.
I don't mind sharing; What are people interested in shooting? I'll be bringing my AR's of course, but I'm mostly a handgun guy so in that regard I have a lot more stuff. |

I have a pretty wide range of pistols I could bring, so if someone is looking to try something specific speak up. I have 9mm's, 40, 45, 380, 38/357... including a Dan Wesson 1911, Walther P99, and a modified Beretta 92 among others. I probably won't bring my older milsurps because they are somewhat delicate and the ejecting brass is too rare to loose. BTW, maybe it was mentioned earlier, but whats the situation with food/beverages (going out to a place afterwards or BBQ there)? |

Me and a buddy are likely to be there. We're both just across the river in the Upper Valley so no need for a camping spot. My son will be back from the UK in July but I don't think that will interfere. He'd rather be shooting than most anything else in any case...

I'll bring .22lr, 9mm, 5.56/223 and 7.63 x 39 and 54r along with rifles that can shoot these... not sure exactly what yet, but I have lots of ammo...
As far as food and drink, i'll probably bring sandwiches for lunch, and go out to eat later... not sure if we will spend the night or not... might be a tougher sell for the wife... although it sounds like a good time. |
