Fort DIX this weekend?

[Ray Ray 3,566]

I'm not a member, but maybe some members and non-members can meet up this weekend? I want to get some of my northern guys down there if possible. If its too soon, then maybe in 2 weeks.

[Krdshrk 3,877]

Tomorrow (Monday)? Or are you talking about the 9/11-12 weekend?

[Ray Ray 3,566]

sorry, 11th or 12th

[bbk 188]

Depending if the VA takes some or all of my money, I might be in for this.

 

ETA: I'm a member and can guest people if need be.

[Krdshrk 3,877]

If I don't go to the MDTS course at Old Bridge I might go.

[Caine 147]

I can't do the 11th, but might be able to do the 12th since it looks like CR is a no-go for that day.

[tbtrout 141]

I may be able to do the 12th.

[Ray Ray 3,566]

The 12th seems like that date. Come on, where's Jeremy?

[njpilot 671]

I think I can do next weekend. Also a member.

[lunker 274]

I can make it, but only in the early AM. I have a wedding reception to go to in the Afternoon.

[Caine 147]

So how early would we need to get there on a Sunday? I remember reading on here that it gets pretty crowded on the weekends

[Ray Ray 3,566]

Going:

 

Ray

Lunker

Caine MAYBE

NJpilot (member)

tbtrout MAYBE

krdshrk MAYBE

bbk (member) MAYBE

 

sounds good so far, but we need more members

[tbtrout 141]

I am a maybe Ray and might already have Tammy and the kids coming. If they come I will be on the pistol range with 22's. Will not know till that morning probably. If not I will bring out manly guns and lose some hearing.

 

And you need to be there by 0800 the latest from what I hear lately.

[Maksim 1,504]

you guys out to come shoot uspsa. =)

Or come much later. There is always a line at the opening. People generally sign up for two hours or more. Lanes don't start opening up until 11:00am.

[lunker 274]

And I am a member. I can take three guests.

[Caine 147]

Ouch - that means I'd need to leave by 6am to get down there by 8!

[njpilot 671]

Early bird kills the worm

 

Actually if a few of us get there for opening and pay for 2-3 hours, you could get there for 9 Pete and just join in.

[Ray Ray 3,566]

Well, I'm goin if someone wants to sign me in.

I'd go but I'm bring the gf. There is no way I'll get her there that early. We're going to CR still Pete. Maybe one day during the week I'll bang out of work and go to Dix.

[Ray Ray 3,566]

Where's Jeremy?

[tj462nj 32]

I'll be there, can also guest in some

[Caine 147]

So, what kind of stuff should the guests bring (aside from guns and ammo of course)? Targets? Target stands? Clays? With the exception of shooting fruits and vegetables, I'm not very familiar with the facilities at Ft Dix.

definelty targets, stands and any fruit/veggies/water filled plastic bottles you'd like to destroy

They also sell targets for $3.

And a happy disposition! :shock:

Ha. They do sell targets/target stands (they're targets on target stands) for cheap there as well.

Rain is in the forecast for Sunday with temps in the mid-70's... I would still recommend bringing some water or other beverages.

If you need a mat for shooting prone, then sure.

 

As for my attendance, most likely at this point. A chance to meet Pete and Ray, plus the rest of the crew? How can I not make time in my day to do that? Plus, I can get those DVDs back to you, Pete :shifty:

I'll give a more definite answer within the next day or two.

[Caine 147]

I'll probably just buy the targets/target stands there I guess, cuz the ones I have that we use at CR probably wouldn't work at Dix.

 

What exactly is the deal if it rains tho? Is any of the range covered? It would suck to drive 2 hours down there only to get rained out and have to drive back home :?

if it rains, then we can go to Brick or Lakewood and shoot indoors

I think they have post hole diggers for target stands.
