Only with wizard eyes. Unless you mean tracer fire.

Good. I need ideas on how to make this a success. I haven't done an event in years.
Do you all bring your own food or pitch in and I buy? I can make up a kettle of chili and a pot of beans.
I will have a couple RV spaces with power available. Who needs hook ups and who is dry camping?
I have room to camp an army with tents.
Music, lights, party place is like Wolfy's except outdoors.
I will be building a new range farther away from the house. Our dogs hate gunfire.
We have a cement pond, if you're brave enough.

Lets start planning now before Christmas madness sets in.

Depends, sometimes we pitch in, sometimes different people bring different things, sometimes both. Do you have a smoker?

Posted: 12/5/2021 5:55:53 PM EDT

[#10]

Yes. I have a cinder block pit like James too.
I can grill, fry, boil, smoke, you name it.

Posted: 12/5/2021 5:58:18 PM EDT

[#11]

I'm hoping the chickens are laying by then.
I need to shoot some does this season, I have way to many. Might make some sausage too.

Either way works fine for me - Whatever you prefer.

If it's BYOF, I'll include some extra to pass around.

Who needs hook ups and who is dry camping?

Dry-camp for me - 17' travel trailer will fit just about anywhere.

If I can make it I will be in a tent.

Posted: 12/5/2021 11:24:33 PM EDT

[#14]

Just depending on work schedule I'd probably still be interested. Trying to see if my brother in law would want to go. We'd be in a tent.

BYOF or pitch in either is fine by me.

.50s and .338s ok?

This.

I dont foresee any reason why I wouldn't be able to make it as long as the date is nailed down a few weeks in advance.

I can pitch in or byof.

If I have a berm built by then, yes. I should. I just need a warm day for the tractor to start.

Tentative dates are January 28-30. Alternates are the following weekend.

Bump, and interested, if this is a family event worthy of bringing young children. It’s been a decade since I attended an arf gathering.

Posted: 12/21/2021 8:50:04 AM EDT

[#18]

I'd be interested. Wife, Boxerdog and the motorhome/truck. I could bring my portable skeet machine if anyone is interested.

Posted: 12/21/2021 10:31:58 PM EDT

[#19]

My wife and I might be able to attend. If so, we would probably just sleep in my SUV.

Machineguns welcome?

Is there any potential spring break events, family friendly with ungins? I would like to possibly bring some of mine with a camping trip and exposer to good responsible people

@shooter_gregg

Any update? I'm gonna put in the time off request soon. Just want to make sure of the dates.

Posted: 12/25/2021 5:28:53 PM EDT

[#27]

Yes. Everyone seems ok with the last weekend in January. That is the date that we are shooting for. I will start a list of attendees in the OP when I get to a pc.

Posted: 1/3/2022 5:53:01 PM EDT

[#28]

Update in the OP. Several questions have been asked. Read and reply please.

@buckshot_jim call me please.

Kid free would probably work best.

ETA: I vote adults only.

Anyone bringing anything to sell/trade if we are still having the Swap Meet?

I got some AR parts stocks, grips, maybe a stripped upper/lower and rail combo also got plenty of 12ga buck n slugs maybe my .38 ruger lcr and more

Posted: 1/4/2022 12:42:36 PM EDT

Definitely will be a swap meet. I need some stuff and I have stuff to trade.

if everyone posts what they need, then it will help us better decide what to potentially bring to swap...

I'm looking for ar9 upper, bolt, buffer, tube and hand guard. I have the lower, barrel and mags (colt).

Posted: 1/5/2022 4:41:22 PM EDT

[#42]

Already mentioned it’s kid-friendly only for us for now, we’d bring our travel trailer. Dry camp is fine during the winter for a couple days, for warm weather we’d appreciate a power plug. If you have fresh water on site, that would save me having to tow in with a full fresh tank but it’s not a huge deal and I always have around 100ft or more of garden hose with us and a hose bib splitter with shut off valves. I wouldn’t complain about full hookups of course.

Posted: 1/5/2022 4:59:31 PM EDT

[#43]

The first one will be adult oriented. I am interested in doing a family friendly one when it gets warmer. I have a stock tank I swim in.
Right after the end of the school year might be best. That is before the gawd awful heat sets in.
I think spring break falls during turkey season. My hunters would not be happy with that.

It's 14 freakin degrees here this morning. I hope it isn't this cold at this camp out

Posted: 1/7/2022 10:36:20 AM EDT

[#45]

Me too. The power went out this morning. Fortunately I had propane installed last summer. I'm cooking breakfast on the gas stove and the new space heater is keeping us warm. It's 17 degrees here.

Posted: 1/9/2022 8:04:07 PM EDT

[#46]

I’m gonna spoon with Lug1 I guess, or sleep in my tent alone.
Had some medical crap come up so hope I can still make it.
I’m going to come self sufficient and see what happens.

I just posted an AR9 upper in pistol caliber parts Greg, FYI.

ETA: I’ll bring stuff for swap meet. Gear, ammo, stuff…..
Is it cool to bring a friendly dog?

Posted: 1/9/2022 8:30:03 PM EDT

[#47]

I think my dog will get along if properly introduced. My daughter brought her dog out and they hit it off. As long as he leaves the chickens alone.

I hate to be the one, but me and the wife both have Covid, again.... We are both sick, so at this point i'm a slim maybe. If this goes anything like last time, I'll be nearly dead by camp date.
