thanks! Also how much to get in? |

There's no fee for the shoot per se, just the normal range fees. I'm not sure what those are off-hand and I don't have the range contact information to find out.
I'll ask Truckin' Joe over on Glock Talk to find out for us. |

Normal range fees are $10.
I'm not sure if the range owner will charge spectators, I suspect not. Jason has been pretty easy going in my dealings with him at Tony's. |

I dunno how many people are coming to the event. I usually have one of them cheapy HEB BBQ pits(35gal thin metal drum) and it tends to work just fine. I need to see about getting another one for home use anyways. They're not expensive and they're DFW Crew approved.

Sparsky, They're definitely Austin Crew approved, too! I'll try to snag some sausage or hotdogs and bunz and stuff. (since I won't have a lot of ammo..hehehe) I'll also try to get some charcoal. Mike, what are the range fees for us out there? |

Well I'm up for cooking. The more people to volenteer food and drinks the better. I'll see about picking up a grill next weekend when I get paid. If anyone wants to bring another pit it'll help with the cooking. Lotta times there's more food than grill space. Umm how about table? Can anyone bring a table? Mine's up at the Hun Farm. I'll keep yall posted on stuff I can bring. Just gotta see how much money I'm going to get on next weeks check. |

Sparsky, I'll grab a pit to bring up there too. Along with a couple of 20lb bags of charcoal, and maybe some hotdogs or burger stuff. Do y'all usually get the "meat log" of hamburger meat, or smaller packages of it? Lemme know, and I'll get some cookin' stuff and grub together.

You know.. I don't think I've ever cooked hamburgers at the Farm. I know last years Central Texas Shoot I brought the pre-made patties. Out of two 8lbs bags they maybe only ate 1/2 a lbs. Then again there was alot of other foods there. |

I just heard from our range liaison that Jason's range is behind schedule on construction and will not be open before our event.
Instead, we will hold it at Tony's Range near Andice. Same time, same date. This is where we held the Central Texas Summer Shoot last year. I'll send out updates to the other message boards: Glock Talk, Bower's, and BiggerHammer.net. This range has 150 yard rifle, 100 yard and less rifle, and 25 yard pistol/carbine ranges. They are class III, .50 BMG, and tannerite-friendly. Tony's is located at 10000 N Highway 183. From Cedar Park: Travel north on highway 183 past highway 29. The range is located on the right side of 183 about 11 miles north of 29. It is across the street from a "Lobo Village" billboard, and you will see a radio tower in the distance on the right. Slow down when you see the billboard, the range is easy to miss. From Round Rock: Travel north on I-35. Take exit 261A (Sun City, Lake Georgetown). Take a left on Williams Drive (FM 2338) and take it to the end of the road in Andice, where FM 2338 has a "T" intersection with 970. Turn left on 970 in Andice and take it until you hit 183. Turn right on 183, and the range is about 1 mile ahead on the right. It is across the street from a "Lobo Village" billboard, and you will see a radio tower in the distance on the right. Slow down when you see the billboard, the range is easy to miss. From Dallas: Travel south on I-35. Take exit 262 (Sun City, Lake Georgetown). Take a left on Williams Drive (FM 2338) and take it to the end of the road in Andice, where FM 2338 has a "T" intersection with 970. Turn left on 970 in Andice and take it until you hit 183. Turn right on 183, and the range is about 1 mile ahead on the right. It is across the street from a "Lobo Village" billboard, and you will see a radio tower in the distance on the right. Slow down when you see the billboard, the range is easy to miss. |

Keep us updated on what food's gonna come. It may help if anyone showing up and bringing "community" food to post here, so we don't have a whole shizzit-load left that we have to cart back Premade patties sounds pretty good. Are we talking pre-made/pre-cooked, or pre-made/need to be grilled up? |

SHADE!
We're gonna need some shade! I still have a couple of those cheap canopies down at my 'rents house, so I'll have to pick them up. If you guys remember last year, there isn't anything out there for natural shade, so we need to provide our own. I am going to stop by Academy and see how much the nicer folding canopies are. Check it out. Oh, bring some chairs, too. Academy had some nice folding chairs for $7 last time I was there. Lookin forward to seein everyone again, and meetin some of you guys that I haven't met yet! |

Yeah, those Academy pop-up canopies are pretty cool. I have one down in South Texas, and love it. It's a 10x10 ft, and 10ft. high in the center I think. Plenty nice stand under while shooting, plus some place to sit and eat/drink/BS in the shade. I'll pick one up (as I'm going to need one for Gunstock anyway). I think they were like 60 bucks?

I just bought a canopy tent from Academy two weekends ago.
They run 19 bucks for the 11x13ft version. There are acouple cheaper ones, $12 bucks but they seemed pretty flimsy compared to the $19 dollar version. Does anybody have any info regarding "reactive/real world" targets? Last year we were able to bring some appliances, tannerite, and I beleive I even remember a car door with a toaster oven strapped to it. As long as we haul out the mess, are the rules the same this year?, as I have a whole host of old electronics that could serve as targets. James Austin, Texas |

I actually ended up buying the $29 version that had the full mosquito netting on all four sides.
It was a tossup for me between the $19 and $29 versions and I figured when I am camping at Big Bend the extra 10 bucks for the netting will be well worth it and the netting unzips and rolls up and out of the way to shoot out of. I will get manufacture info off the unit I have tonight, the $19 version should be the exact same manufacturer from what I remember, just sans netting. James Austin, Texas |

I'm not going to be able to make this event due to a last minute training opportunity that popped up.
Matthew_Q, could I ask you to drive this thing and check in with Tony to make sure something unforseen hasn't happened as the date rolls around? |

Mike,
Shouldn't be a problem. I suspect everything will run smoothly like last time! Too bad you can't make it, but I'm sure that training you'll be in on will be worth missing a get together! Just don't miss Gunstock!! |

Anyone know who much the admission for voyeurs will be? Also will there be machine guns for rent? Does the range have ammo for sale? A friend & I are coming from Waco then possibly onto Austin for the gunshow.

Bite,
There's no fees for just spectating, however, everyone will be paying the normal range fees. IIRC it's only $10. The range doesn't have any guns to rent, AFAIK. People will probably bring some fun stuff, and will let you try a mag or two. There was a little store at the range that had ammo and such, but the guy that owns that is opening up his own range (the one we were going to have the get together at, but they're not going to be open by then) Come on out, even if for a little while... it should be fun! |

Bad range conditions possible!!
It's looking like the Austin area might be getting frequent storms throughout the week. If so, it's likely that the range conditions will be pretty muddy and nasty. I'm not sure who would want to slog through all that muck. I'd postpone it, but I'm not really coordinating this one, guys. I don't have accounts on the other boards that Mike posted to, so I can't get the word out well. If any of you guys can, it would be good. If it's really wet and muddy, I probably will not come out. |

make people stay home. Not much rain in Waco...... |
