Hey Northern Virginians... It's time to shoot!

Dagnabbit... Just sold my O/U to pay off a debt, or else I would join ya at Bull Run.

If you're gonna hit the NRA range afterwards, then I'll be glad to meet up with ya.

Let me see if I can work something out at the Loudoun IWLA ( www.loudouniwla.org ) range(s). I'll talk to the Rifle/Pistol Range Chairman ( used to be me) tonight. If not for this round, maybe for the next.
 
Warden just slapped the monitoring device on my ankle and said "Whatever."

Any chance for a later tee time? My seven-year-old has rugby practice in the morning. :D :D :D :D :D

No soccer moms here!

If the time doesn't work, I'm gonna be torn between my two favorites - rugby and shooting.

Mike, thanks again.

By the way, where's SodaPop? I still haven't bought that 870 (hint, hint). :D
 
Sorry, but MTNBKR requested the earlier tee time first, Mr. James.

Tell you what.

Since Tomcat has rugby practice, tell Mrs. James to get up off her fat, kept bon-bon eating ??? and take him!

Tell her you're going to be the MAN of the family, you're putting your foot down, you're going out with your friends to shoot guns, drink beer, and eat red meat, and you expect her to have the windows washed and meet you at the door with a cold one when you pull up!


OK, this is for everyone else.

I'll lay you 7 to 1 odds that they never find his body.

Who wants a piece of that action?
 
Youch.. Thats cold.

Mrs. 22x9 said "What? You want to do want with a bunch of yeh-whos (people you don't know) from some Gun Forum? " :rolleyes:

Spoke to the Range Chairman at the Loudoun IWLA. We can reserve the 25, 50, 100yd range for a Weekday afternoon/early evening. Since I'm a member there I can host a gathering of any size and it would be ok. Just as long as it doesn't get unruly and small donations would be greatly appreciated, but not necessary. We would also need a NRA RSO on hand, not a problem :D . Haven't spoke to the Skeet Range chairman, but I can imagine that it would fall under the same guidelines, plus a few more(#9 shot, 2 3/4 dram equivalent, 12, 20, 28, .410 only)
 
If I counted correctly, there will be 8 of us shooting at Bull Run this Saturday:

Mike Irwin
Curt
Halolva
Mtnbkr
Themic
4truck
MJRW
Roadrunner

Did I leave anyone out? I'll be driving a silver 4Runner and I usually park on the left side next to the skeet fields. I'll try to find my TFL t-shirt with "Roadrunner" across the back.

See you all on Saturday at 11 am.
 
Mike,

Dead men tell no tales... ;)

I'll be there, but perhaps a bit late. I'll probably have to cut short my son's exertions on the rugby pitch. I do look forward to this. The last outing will be long, and fondly, remembered.

I'll be the clueless dipstick who doesn't know how an o/u operates. God bless the range guys at Bull Run - they have infinite patience.

Sayyy, think they'll let a 7-year-old shoot? I asked last time and they said, "oh, in about a year." That WAS in 2002 :D

KMKeller, yes, I'm jealous.

Oh, and I'll be in a dirty 2001 Silverado, gray. Fashion statement not yet known.

Shoot it, Slam it, Smoke it

This from the Independence Institute in Colorado:

"Slam it. Shoot it. Smoke it.

Our Alcohol Tobacco & Firearms event is getting a lot of attention, including Peter Blake's column in the Rocky. What's it about? Join us for a morning of skeet shooting followed by lunch and brandy with cigars (or the booze and legal tobacco product of your choice) on Saturday June 28th at the swank Kiowa Creek sporting club. Oh, the fun things you can do when you're politically incorrect. Cost is only $150 which includes all the fun stuff. Proceeds go towards our mission, which hacks off folks who hate alcohol, tobacco and firearms. More info:

http://www.i2i.org/Other/Events/index.htm#3"

Sound familiar? Perhaps we can raise one in their honor after our event...
