I may try to make it by 11:30, give me some directions. Also, do they allow FMJ?

Cool, yes they do allow FMJ and any other ammo. No rapid fire though. 4 lanes that are out to 200yds.

Here's the directions:

I'll try to make it also.  I've been trying to find a range that allows FMJ without driving all the way to McKinney.

Wait, why do you have to be 18 to go shooting? To buy ammo?  Just have the guys buy it for you.

because in the state of texas you have to be 18 to get ammo, and /or carry a rifle or shotgun.  i dont care to go to jail thats why.

Call me LT.  I got drafted by wife to babysit while she went to hair dresser. So I'm out of the game today unless she makes it back soon enough.

Sorry guys.

Princess Gigi and I had a great time with LT and JFP.

We stayed about an hour after you guys.  Was it warm or what??

Thanks for the help getting that Soviet scope dialed in.

When we were packing up I came up short one thirty round mag.  If it strayed would someone send it home?

Stay cool and see you guys again soon.

Sorry AROCK, just checked my gear and no 30rdr in sight except for the Thermolds I had originally. Could you have left it near the pistol range? [:(]

Was great to shoot with you guys.

Will try to get one again towards the end of the month. My birthday is the 27th. Maybe that weekend for a lil birthday shoot. [:)] Wonder if the Gibsons would let us BBQ in the parking lot? Hmmmm....

Well, so, ladies and gentlemen, is there not anyone gonna give us an 'after action' report?

What happened?

Where'd y'all go for lunch?

Did [b]lordtrader[/b] actually show up? [:D]

Hey I showed up. Although rather late cause of the traffic on 635. Not much to tell. The cops showed up. AROCK got mistaken for a serial killer. JFP for a mass murderer and me for a child molester. They let us go when we dropped the AR15.com name though. That and I showed em your biz card and they shook in their boots that I had ETH for a lawyer. We then sighted in AROCK new fangled scope with a lot of play in it. I mean A LOT OF PLAY!!!. Then we went home. I rented The Time Machine. Cooked some Spam Burgers and had a beer or 2. Such as life when the board is down.

BTW ETH, I updated the boards calendar to show all the gunshows till the end of the year. That way no one is asking you anymore. That and I added the Hun A Palooza to the calendar as well [:)]

Now, see, [b]lordtrader[/b] was that so bad?

What's a couple of full body cavity searches when you out with your friends having fun!

I mean, so long as the cavity searches are not being carried out by your friends, you should be OK!

I'm glad y'all had a great time!

But more to my interests, heh-heh, where'd y'all go to eat?

We did not get anything to eat together. JFP had a drive to FW, AROCK stayed cause he had more toys to shoot. I was late for my afternoon nap.

Hmmm, all nap and nothing to eat?

The very meaning of the word 'companion' derives from the Latin [i][b]com pan(is)[/b][/i] or 'with bread' meaning someone with whom you would share bread.

So the sharing of bread is [u]sacred[/u] to me!

And insofar as your mid-afternoon naps are concerned, do not worry about missing any such naps while out at the Hun Farm in October!

If you can't seem to get any shuteye out there, I will personally rock you to sleep!






With [u]real[/u] rocks! [:D]

Yo! LT!  Next time I'll bring an electric screwdriver for that soviet scope!  We cranked the adjustment all the way to Collin County just to get it on paper.

Thanks again to you and JFP!

Why did we miss lunch??  WHAT WERE WE THINKING??

I second that!  I'm planning on bringing more booze and less ammo next time.  That way I figure I don't have as many guns to clean when I get home!
