Thanks Bob!

My wife might be coming this year.

Woo hoo! Been stockin' up in anticipation ... John, good to see you're still with us! My wife has informed me that she will definitely come this year since I'm not allowed to have more fun than her ... Bob, hope you've been well, and yes, let's celebrate the EBR!

Sounds interesting, I'll try to pull up old thread and read about it!

Isn't this the Year of the Pony as well?

J. Parker · March 14, 2013, 09:15 AM

Sig's rule and ponies drool!

FourTeeFive · March 14, 2013, 07:30 PM

How much shooting is there? Not sure my budget will allow for too much fun considering current ammo prices and availability.

J. Parker · March 14, 2013, 08:38 PM

If ya come I can spare 9MM and 45acp ammo. I was thinkin' the same thing but I'm gonna throw caution to the wind and shoot my cotton-pickin' guns by golly.

Some folks shoot on Friday afternoon and some don't. Most of the shooting happens Saturday afternoon. That said, there is more to our get-together than just shooting. Make some new friends, sitting around the campfire, the tall tales , the great food, and the camaraderie is what the weekend is all about.

Thanks for the offer! I've got some, just not sure how much I would need to bring.

Very kind of you though. Hope to see you there.

Well, John, you said ...

SIGs? We got SIGs!

FourTeeFive, no one's ever complained over the past six years (it has been six, right, Bob? Or longer?) that Bob's been hosting this terrific event that we didn't have enough ammo to shoot ... We're all about sharing our sport ... and food ... and good campfire stories (right, John?) ...

J. Parker · March 17, 2013, 09:00 PM

Those are some beautiful Sig's ya got there my friend.

FourTeeFive · March 17, 2013, 09:14 PM

Now I just need to figure out how to bring my rib smoker all that distance...

Sun195 · March 17, 2013, 10:14 PM

It's a fun event. I've gone up just for the day before. Good group of folks.

Wayne02 · March 19, 2013, 02:52 PM

Missed last year, looking forward to this year.

J. Parker · March 19, 2013, 03:17 PM

Hey Wayne....hope you can make it this year my friend.

J. Parker · March 20, 2013, 11:21 PM

I don't have an EBR.

I've got an Everyday Battle Rifle however. I'm bringin' my AK! WOOHOO! AR's step aside!

cyclopsshooter · March 20, 2013, 11:26 PM

I oughta bring the WASR with the Slidefire and the 75rnd drum. BYOA

armedandsafe · March 21, 2013, 02:45 AM

I'll be there. Talking to TY and his Dad and brother, but no firm plans yet.

FYI, I'm no longer on TFF.

Polishrifleman · March 21, 2013, 11:13 AM

Those of you interested get me email addresses. I have to set up a new group as Pops pointed out that Multiply isn't for us anymore. You will get an invite from BBBB for a microsoft skydrive group. Anyone from multiply send me your email too since this can't be accessed.

Thanks

Old Dog · March 21, 2013, 08:09 PM

PM your way, Bob ...
John, didn't we do the AR vs. AK battle a couple years back? I b'lieve the ARs won ...
Would be nice to see the combat roll back, too, Wayne ...

J. Parker · March 21, 2013, 09:58 PM

There's no battle my friend. I'd take either one in these crazy times.

The_Next_Generation · March 22, 2013, 10:13 PM

Sounds awesome! I've lived in WA all my life and never heard of this..I'll definitely be there.

FourTeeFive · March 23, 2013, 02:09 PM

What are the targets and distance ranges? Need to know what to bring.

Polishrifleman · March 24, 2013, 02:24 AM

We shoot anything from paper to potatoes, bowling pins to tannerite, range is solid out to 200 and then a metal disc out at just over 300. I sent a sign in to those who have given me emails so check your junk to see if it is there.
