Mama says.......HA! Glad that you decided to post and welcome! Hope you can make it out to the shoot, no matter where it ends up being held at. |
|
|
Hmmmmm. account? "Could it beeee ........satan?" Just kidding! Welcome to the forum and hope you meet ya at a shoot or PR. Both of which you are required to attend!!! CH |

Well he did hit on me a few times, but that was valuable. |
|
|
Hubba Hubba! |

|
When I hit 9000 we will see! |

I like the way you think But, since lil 'ol me is so so far away from the rest of ya'll, someone will have to run the recon missions and report back. We are at a little under a month. What was the concensus about mamaloose or mamamoose (whatever) road? |
|
|
I can make a Recon run next week say Tues or Thurs, but I don't know where to go look. |
|
|
Memaloose's pit is good width-wise, plenty of room to park, but it's a little lacking in depth. I don't think it's much more than 150 yards at it's deepest point. I do think it could accomodate most of us though.
The only thing to watch for is ice....while the road is paved the whole way, it can get pretty dicey this time of year. But I would give it a +1 for an alternate site. |
|
|
East of Estacada....on 212 just past Promitory park....1st green bridge that crosses the Clackamas....turn right onto bridge, follow road all the way to the top, about 3-4 miles. The road has a few intersection, you want to stay on the main line, no turns. pit will be on your left side at the top of the hill. It will seem like forever and a day to get there your 1st trip up.....
|
|
Looks like I probably won't be able to make this one. My dad's coming up for a visit from Florida over two weekends...PR and the shoot.
Sorry guys. |
|
You should bring him out to PR. Hell give him a gun and let him shoot!!!! CH |
|
|
Let's just say he doesn't know about my recent, ummm, addiction yet. |
||
|
Make sure you have the camera ready for the look on his face when he sees your stash!!! |
|
PR would be the perfect venue to let him know whats going on! Bring him to breakfast and introduce him to us all! He is not some east coast screaming lib is he? It wouldnt matter really just make it a bit more interesting. ALso I would show up head to toe camo with face paint and ghillie! |
|||
|
+1, show him how you have fun!!!
That's how I got my father-in-law hooked.......brought him out once, next thing ya know, he was shopping for an AR... |
|
Are ya sure? I thought you promised him steak nuggets once a month for lunch? |
|
|
That was STINK nuggets. |
|
|
Well, I do have to keep the man happy..........after all I am boning his daughter... |
||
|
My new sigline!!!! |

|
He just about fell off his stool he was sitting on when he read this tonight....
My wife on the other hand.......her---><---me |
|
Dude, that is first rate, right out of a scene from Home Improvment, comedy! I am laughing even though it hurts!! (tweaked my back today at work) |
|
|
Ok, 3 weeks to go......we holdin' out to see if Brown's Camp is gonna be clear, or do we need to find an alternate?
The cool part is that I get to go!!! |
|
I'm thinking we need an alternate just in case. That rock pile will be destroyed if we have the shoot out there...and that's not a good thing. Oh, and it looks like Dad isn't coming out those weeks. Postponed until February. So, I'll be out there. PR probably too, although I still have to figure out what the hell is going on with my Kobra. |
|
|
I need to know for sure it's not being cancelled if Brown's camp is a no-go. I have to put in for a vacation day to attend. Is there some easy alternative that comes to mind?
Memaloose is a beotch to get to if it's snowy. That's a looooonngg way down if your rig slips. |
|
I'm going to check out an alternate location in Mollala tomorrow.
|
|
One of the pits up Sawtell Rd? ( these are at about 4000' elevation if snow comes!) |
|
|
I'm not going to make it today. I'll have to go later. I might take a long drive/lunch tomorrow at noon (gotta work...but no one's in the office). |
|
|
|

|
So, due to the number of folks running recon on Monday, the decision as to where the shoot should be made Monday evening????
Hint, hint????? Just make sure ya'll take some pics of the locations, mmmkkaayy??? |
|
Yeah yeah. I will. I think I'll need to make a stop off at Fry's in Wilsonville to write the mileage out as a business expense.
|
|
Brown's Camp is open but the new gravel arrangement will reduce the firing line alot.
|
|
|
I guess we're looking for an alternative location? Memaloose is good ( short range tho) if there's no snow. It would be very hazardous with ice/snow up there.
|
|

I say just screw Browns Camp and have the shoot at Memaloose! I seriously doubt there will be snow and only babies whine about a little mud.

Roger. I should have some nicer mags for it before the shoot. Some modified Galil .308 mags. |
|
|
|
Thanks. But the one I have on order is not a standard stock. I've got the poly one on it now. I also have an extra handguard and pistol grip (Cruiser) that came with it. |

Glock 17L (I hope that guy with the Glock F/A doo-dad is there) Bushy M4gery w/ EOTech + BetaMag Feather AT-22 Maybe the CAI/Hesse FAL (just to show the snobs that they're not all crap) |
