So sorry I missed it, I was all packed to leave and my sister calls and tells me she's on the way to the hospital with my brother-in-law, who passed away from a heart attack. 59 years old, way to young. Jeff

It was a rocking good time Bob!!! Thanks for the effort. You are a champ. There were a couple of stupid things that went on that I hope doesn't hurt future efforts. But that is the fault of the perpetrators, not the event.
We'll be back next year!! Peace! |

As you are the main guy who puts this together Bob, I join the others in thanking you. I enjoyed myself to the extreme. Somehow, I managed to not a fire a single machine gun this year but that didn't detract from my enjoyment at all. I had a load of fun letting folks fire my new .50. Seems I helped put a smile on quite a few faces. Thanks again Bob and I am glad to hear that the club is already asking about next years event.

I had a great time too! I didn't shoot any full auto but I had fun shooting the knobs off the washing machines with my .223 bolt gun and my 50 BMG. The 8 hour ride was a walk in the park after the 18 hour ride (all alone) to the BRC, especially since I was chauffeured to Bulletfest by Helldog40 and Bobby!
Thanks, I'll be back. |

"LIGHT IT UP!!!!!!!!"
THAT'S THE SOUND OF FREEDOM, BABY! glad you made it home safely, miss m! you are probably ready for a foot massage, after patrolling that line! my dogs are still barking! i spent hour after hour in the hot sun today...with ol' dale and don from the club. ALL the members were speechless at the display of power YOU folks put on! my hat is off to 99.9% of the attendees for great behavior...classy sportsmanship on a overcrowded firingline and for having patience with the few snafu's that are to be expected at any event on this scale! god bless america, american shooters and the mapleton gun club! |

It was good to see how many turned out to make this the success that it was. I will save some vacation time for Bulletfest '03 to help the setup crew. Thanks Campy and everyone else who donated time, money and toys. A big thanks to Waldo, Plateshooter and Engineer for the shady spot with all of the full-auto toys.
Thanks, Brian |

You always hear the term "Southern Hospitality", but this weekend in Northern Ohio of all places, strangers came from all over America to share their passion for firearms. Of all the people there I never once met a stranger, everybody always stuck out a hand for a new friend, and all were made to feel at home. People shared their guns, ammo, and time to help a new friend. I only wish that the liberals who demonize gun owners could have been there to experience the brotherhood.
Thank You CampyBob, for all your hard work, time and financial resources for making this one hell of an event! |

Campy, I'm sure others have said it before, but thanks again for putting on such a great shoot - it just gets better year after year!
Next year we're gonna have to rent something bigger to get the targets onto the range - your pickup just isn't cutting it anymore! [:D] Also gotta thank the guys for putting up the flag pole - that was a nice patriotic display. BTW - Campy - do you have a figure on the total amount that was donated to the club? |

Quoted: Also gotta thank the guys for putting up the flag pole - that was a nice patriotic display. Wow! I thought our modest little flag pole had gone unnoticed! You're welcome Engineer, it was my pleasure!!! [usa] Campy, it was a fantastic shoot, the people were wonderful, and the general populace of Ohio were some of the most charming and polite folk I've seen of late. I want to thank you again for all the work you did in hosting Bulletfest, and thank you for having us as your guests. Edited to add: I'm just sorry that I didn't get to meet and greet some more ar15 folks that I heard were there. I meant to, but...but...well, there was all this noise, and the smoke, and a minigun |

the club did ok, finacially...i've heard several preliminary figures...the kitchen was a big moneymaker, in addition to the generous donations!
the club appreciates your support! several emails have indicated ar15 members will be sending in additional donations to the mapleton gun club (address on the bulletfest website). remember...there aren't many places left where you can have this kind of intense fun! as i have stated...this is NOT a one-man show! many folks dedicate their day(s) to enable us to enjoy bulletfest. my hat is off to them ALL! and again. i want to make sure the cyber-shooters that made the show know that THEY are the ones that make bulletfest GREAT!!! |

Thank you Bob. Helping out was an honor and next year I'm going to try to be in better shape to try and keep up with you old guys ;)
You and Ed Avila Sr. are hard to keep up with. Sorry I didn't make it out Sunday morning to help clean up some brass, but I was beat. The sun sure is draining. I had a great time. It was awesome. I also want to thank everyone that was there for being nice, friendly people. I don't think I've met a more friendly crowd. A special thanks to Waldo also for making me shoot up some of his ammo :) Bulletfest f#$%ing rocks! |
