Gus ..... a friendly rap on the wrist ..... IF you read the whole thread you'll find there is information such as you want!!!:rolleyes: :p :D

Ok .. you are chastized!!

Please do drop me a PM if you think you can come ... with whoever .... and let me know your email address .. I am asking all who can come or hope to come to do this .... that way I build an email list for later use to disseminate info nearer the time.

If what you need to know is not covered earlier in this thread then add any other queries to a PM ..OK?:)

I think I may post an image soon on this thread so as to show range location ...... as well as emailing same to those on my list.
 
Here is a small map .....

Just to help regarding the more local aspects. I'd suggest that anyone wanting more detailed info ... go to MapQuest, Expedia etc ... and punch in something from this map - which should then give a useful printable map.

This is only a ''thrown together'' diagram .. so if it makes no sense and you find it useless please say!!! It should tho I think do the job and, nearer the time i will issue it again and with the inclusion of a written guide also, giving a more detailed description.

I looked up New Paris on MapQuest a few days ago, and it says it's exactly 3 hours from here. Seems like a pretty straight shot up I-270 to I-70, if I remember correctly.

I picked up my new tent from UPS today, so I'm all ready to camp out. :D
 
Good news David .. sounds pretty good...... I think you'd find it a pretty straightforward trip ..... and as I have said .... I'll be emailing written local directions later on, just to make the last bit as straightforward as possible.

P95, i just might make it to your shoot. seems my idea for one that weekend has tanked with only one guy interested on the opposite end of the state, so alas, i surrender. That is also the same weekend as the counter-protest at the pentagon, so if i hit the CP on sat, i just may be able to get to your place by sunday. only problem being, what to do with my weapons during my incursion into the disarmed victim zone..... sugjestions? also, how far are ya from DC?
 
Bigjake, the Pentagon is about 5 miles from where I live, so it'll be about 3 hours to the THR meet. Since the Pentagon is in VA, you shouldn't have to worry about having firearms in your trunk. If you're actually going INTO the Pentagon, the guys standing by the HMMVW with the .50-cal might want to search your vehicle :eek: , but there should be plenty of nearby parking in that area on the weekends.
 
how far are ya from DC?

jake ... my mileage to Dulles airport .. which i know ...... is 145 ....... about 2 hrs 20 mins. From here route 70, then a short leg on (forget now) 340 ? .... onto 15 South thru Leesburg ... and then toll to airport ..... not quite DC per se but close. Do hope you might make it.
 
No go Mike ..... sadly.

Wedding to attend, tho if truth known, spraying lead would be way more enjoyable than yawning and spraying confetti!! :D

I shall have to take solace in the knowledge that only two weeks after that I'll be hoping to enagage in a ''communal lead spraying''!!:evil: :p
 
Just my regular injection of exposure!! Under a month to go now .. and oh my is it ever Fall already!! Guess we'll probably need jackets on the day.

Anyone else who did not see this thread before .. scan it thru and see what is what .... Sunday Oct 26 is the day. Be good to see you.
 
Guys .... sent out an email to all on my list on 6th .. only heard back from one which was frodo527 who unfortunately can't make it.

It is now not much more than two weeks away and I would very much like some feedback just to see where we are for numbers, tho I will be sending out another mailing later.

I BCC'd rather than CC'd for reasons of privacy but I am sure they should all have gotten thru.

So - hope to hear from you and .. a reminder too for others who may not have know about it ..... Oct 26th ..... locational info is available within this thread. PM me if you need to know more.

Outa interest .... for those i hope to see .... any requests re particular guns they want to see/shoot but may not have (yet!!) ... cos if I have same then I'll be sure to bring it/them along.
 
Sorry Chris , I misread the line that asked to return a message if I was still in , DUH ! Still looks ok for me , and I'll be bringing all my MIM and lock Smiths to try and bring Mike Irwin over to my side :evil: . Seriously old and new Smiths , maybe the Mini-14 , .357 lever gun, and well I haven't decided yet, anything anyone wants to try out ? Anything to do with a shotgun there ? I've got this new Win Super X2 that always begs to go for a ride with me. Case
 
David, Ray ....... thx for responding guys .... appreciate it.

We may not have a huge number but we'll make one real good day of it ..... the firing point is covered so unless snowstorm I think we'll cope!

FAL .... sounds good . I'll have L1A1 probably too. And multitude of Smiths? .... always good.

Probably have my Mini too and my .357 lever .... as caseydog sez ... anyone after trying anything specific then say in advance in case we can help.

Shotguns? Well ..... this club is VERY well equipped for trap and sporting also but .. I tend to think the setting up of trap house etc might cut across the rest of our shooting, bearing mind the daylight will be less. Bring one along and some ammo by all means .. if space then we'll see how the day looks.

When I send out later email I shall be needing to know timing etc for arrivals ... forget now but one or two maybe wanted to camp over .. so would need to know when to be there for arrivals so as to get set up. So when next mail comes thru ... be sure to get back to me.

Oh and .. anyone at all unclear re directions .. let me know. I will write out the local directions to help with the final stage later.

Looking forward to it.
