What do you guys think?
September 18th or 19th at Birchwood - first weekend after the sunset. Would be nice to do it in August when AK_Mike could make it though... Let me know if you have any ideas or preferences. |
|
whenever , I'll bring disks for everyone there if i have a head count
|
|
The wife and I can try to make it, depends on how settled we are in the new place, work situation, etc.
Hopefully we make it :) |
|
I'm game , we need to have a pistol comp like we did for the rifles
|
|
Sounds good to me. Sig40 what pistols are you shooting now? Did you decide on a 1911? I just did a trade for one of my ultra carrys for a Sig 239 in 9mm. Not sure why but I hope I like it. I've never even shot a sig of any kind. Not a real big fan of the 9mm but didn't need two ultra's.
|
|
for this house deal and lots of other reasons (face surgery) i thinned my heard out alot . Only Sig I have is my 226 (9mm)which should be back by a sept shoot I hope. got my BHP , my kimber and ordering my Para LTC lightweight. and a few other toys maybe a 22 kit for 1911 would be nice ...maybe 1 rifle ...thinking AR with 16 inch barell. Too bad to hear about the Loss of an ultra
this animations are great |
|
Well, I have enough Kimbers and prefer a fullsize anyways. My other ultra is my carry gun at this time. I will get a bunch of 9mm and try out the sig. Who knows might not like it and trade it off for another 1911.
Yes they are. |
|
Anyone up for a farenheit be damned shoot? Say November, Fairbanks.
Anyone? |
|
Augh! Damn sad to hear that you gave up your others.
Not so bad, don't think about it so much as an ultra loss, but gaining a sig!
If I'm home, you know I'll be there! |

|
Augh! Damn sad to hear that you gave up your others. Ahhh not a big issue , but when APW gets my 226 back it will an impressive piece of the BLING BLING |
|
|
I'll be there unless something comes up between now and then. |
|
|
We did! You had to have that compressor though |
|
|
Well I was hoping you guys would decide that for me I'm not thinking totally clearly at the moment so I hope this all makes sense... I was leaning towards a post-sunset shoot - which would also be right before my birthday. But I read somewhere that AK_Mike might be around in August. Another factor in future shoots will be the cost... For the last one I paid (and WANTED to pay) for the range rental. Another member kicked in and made all the clays and sodas and such possible. I was kicking around the idea of having a shootout fund - charging $15 or so per person and anything extra would go towards supplies for the next shoot (with another member getting copies of reciepts to keep me accountable - I' not trying to make a buck here). This way we could possibly save up enough for prizes or some steel targets or a shot timer or ???. We could also have a regularly scheduled shoot every month, or two months, or summer, or whatever... Anyway, just some ideas I've been kicking around. |
|
|
I was wondering why it was so cheap (5.00). I have no problem kicking in my share. Give me some idea of the prices so I have an idea as to what these shoots will cost. Send me a private email if you like.
|
|
same here , next time I'll bring sodas and whatever ..also I have no problem with cost issues ..I just need to bring more ammo . and not schedule a compressor pick up same day ....I hope my sig comes back before then ...
|
|
I just picked up my sig 239 and 500 rounds. So I am ready to go with this pistol. Also have 500 .45 sitting here too. I guess I better get more.
edited because it being late.. One of my kids at emerency room with maybe broken bone in foot from SKATE BOARDING. Parents BEWARE. |
|
I'd like to make it to one of these shoots someday... But, I more than likely won't be able to until next year. Sounds like you guys sure have a lot of fun though
|
|
I think November will be my next vacation, I'm up for it! The barrel on my new baby will keep me warm! |
|
|
Sorry, I've had a lot going on and planning ahead doesn't seem to work out well these days... I thought a sunset shoot would be more popular but with the lack of response, it's probably not worth renting the whole range out this time. Maybe we can just agree to meet on the 19th (Sunday) at Birchwood? I usually try for range C, but you never know what's filled up. For those that haven't seen me, I drive a black Mitsubishi Gallant with an AR15.com license plate frame |
|
|
Sunday the 19th sounds good to me. What time? Which one is range C, next to where we were before?
Tom |
|
I'll have to check the schedule, but I think they open at 10AM. Range C is the same one we were at before. |
|
|
Nope. Pretty small turnout this time. Just me, gsxrjason, Knifemaker02, Amazon, and anoher guy I know that I can never remember his screen name. No cameras that I saw, but we had fun. Some full auto and a lot of bump-firing...
|
|
I was going to be there but the wife was called into work(hospital) so she had to go. I sat here with the kiddys.
|
|
Too bad. I was expecting you and Sig40Fan to show. |
|
|
I know it sucks. Let me know when you go again and I will try to make it. How often do you go? I was going to go down to rabbit creek today but the damn rain kept me in.
|
|
Not very often lately. Busy at work, watch kids when I get home... I'll post something next time I go, and Rabbit Creek is much closer to where I live.
|
|
Same here,maybe we can have a rabbit creek meet.I need to buy some more .223 but I'm spoiled from the good deal MGNiko gave me hehe.
|
|
What kind of deal did you get on ammo? I have been paying about 98.00 for 500rd.
|
|
Maybe we should go do a bumpfire and see if they have a cow. I know full auto is ok but, from the hip might tweak them out.
|
|
Full auto is OK in short bursts. Bumpfiring from the hip will likelyget you booted from the range - depending on who is the RO.
Bumpfiring from the shoulder in bursts would be OK though - probably... At least you look like you are aiming |
|
That's kind of what I was thinking. |
|
|
I got 1k rounds of russian for $125,I was hesitant because of the laquer but it functioned fine with no jams of any kind.Ammo king has some wolf for 158bux for 1k rounds.We need to get a group buy or on some ammo,I would get a couple of cases.
How do you bump fire from the shoulder? |
