I'd like to get the jeep loaded on Thursday or sooner, so we can get down there earlier on Friday, hit the shooting range perhaps? Any body else want to try that on Friday?

Great, If we can get on the road by 10, that'll put us there around 1, with a stop for some hotdogs of course!

Day pass for the range is 3$, can be picked up at Eldorado Station, same as the 4WD pass. must have: Eye protection, Ear Protection and targets. Must use approved target stands, available on site. They have a place for pistol's from what I can tell, and long rifles. If the place is busy\packed, I'll probably pass.

Finally got around to putting up an invite in VA and Tenn. SC invite got a response, but no additional new-comers.

I have eye and ear protection in my ammo box. I was on a roll for a while snagging me 9mm, and .45 auto ammunition. Need to snag a few more box's, so I have some to waste.

I love a little trigger time. But it can be an expensive hour or few hours depending on what kind of ammo you have to buy.

You aren't kidding there.... worst thing about the AR is I typically just take about 10 mags pre loaded.... so they tend to go pretty fast. You will easily eat up 300 rounds in no time flat.

I need to break down and buy another one, not sure my ammo stash could withstand it though. However the wife really does enjoy shooting the AR, so you never know.

I'll be honest, I am really considering it. It is definitely not a matter of wanting to go or not, just feeling guilty for taking more time off and making my supervisor change the schedule again. And I love shooting, especially my AR, and I have acquired a "couple", cough cough*, rounds that are still in a green wrapper


Would also really love to bring my truck(may be a perfect time to come up with a name for her), but not sure she'll be ready. Still waiting on PO to get me that title


*hundreds (shhhhhhh)

If I could get some good help, I might could get her done 'enough' to make the trip with the truck...
