Junior 14 Posted November 6, 2016 So are there any special instructions? This will be my first time going. Do I just drive in and look for the large group? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sota 1,191 Posted November 6, 2016 Sounds like we're taking at least the left most "ports" for ourselves, hopefully. If you get there after 9am look for the silver jeep liberty with plow signs on the side. I'll be the guy with the kid, two popup tents setup, and possibly the gay pride t-shirt if it gets warm enough. ETA: Drez... grow the damn beard back already. Was so much easier when we could tell people to look for the al qaeda looking dude smoking a stogie. ETA2: I'm ASSUMING Drez means the left most ports. the ones sort of hidden by the trees.

DeerSlayer 241 Posted November 6, 2016 Thrower is in the truck, got the optima yellow top on the charger, 3 cases of clays in truck, and I grabbed another case of shells this evening. Just have to pull some cases out and grab a bunch of shotguns. Probably leave my house around 8am. Takes about an hour to get to Clinton. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Krdshrk 3,877 Posted November 6, 2016 I have 2 cases of shells and will supposedly have 3-5 others with me. Edit - don't forget daylight savings time tonight... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HBecwithFn7 296 Posted November 6, 2016 Good luck today, folks! I'll be with you in spirit.As it turns out, I attended a "shootout" in Florida, yesterday. But a little different kind. This was a "NFA" shoutout. You were welcome to bring your own inventory (semi's, shotties, and any NFA items you might own), and/or you were also welcome to shoot some of the NFA items on display by the sponsor. You feed them your own ammo. I continued to get some more practice in with my LE6920, and I was hitting some of the steel targets at 65 yards. And, just for you, Krdshrk, I finally got to brake in my JM Pro. A guy there had a "Soda can" launcher which took the place of some clays. It was cool to watch the soda cans ♫♪ "burstin' in air... " ♪♫ But the highlight of my shooting that day was putting 100 rounds through a MAC-10 9mm equivalent. It's funny, but although there was very little kick when in "single fire" mode, you do have to adopt a different stance (lean more forward) when firing full auto as it will try and push you back a little. But the overall highlight of the afternoon was winning the grand prize at the raffle , a GSG 1911 .22 pistol! Totally unexpected! So nice to walk way with that gun.... and all that was required was a NICS check and a 4473. They did it right at the range by phone. Since I have a FL CWFL, I didn't have to wait 3 days. WooHoo! A really nice day. Hope you have the same later today. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr.Stu 1,922 Posted November 6, 2016 There's a chance I could drop in with my girls after 1 if you guys are still there. Are they allowed to use their .22 rifles? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sota 1,191 Posted November 6, 2016 .22 on the clay range? i'm pretty sure that's a "no." you could go over to the other side of the WMA and shoot there, I believe. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DeerSlayer 241 Posted November 6, 2016 There's a chance I could drop in with my girls after 1 if you guys are still there. Are they allowed to use their .22 rifles?If you bring them over to the rifle range down the street. They can shoot rifles there. Shotguns only on the clay range.

Mr.Stu 1,922 Posted November 6, 2016 Thanks for the quick answers. We've decided to head down to the shore since this is likely the last nice day of the year. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Purple Patrick 638 Posted November 6, 2016 Solid shoot today guys and gals.... until some a hole brought pumpkins and ruined all the fun this signature exceeds the 15 character capacity count 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Malice4you 627 Posted November 6, 2016 I was there pretty early (for me) and I swore that someone else left them there before us. They may have been hidden for safe keeping, thats all. Thats how I remember it, anyway. Had a great time today, even when not hitting my targets, which may have been most of them. My friends also had a blast. It was great to see everyone and meet new people. Thanks guys for everything! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sota 1,191 Posted November 6, 2016 just unpacked the jeep. came out to my garage smelling like an expended ordinance factory. Think the wind was blowing the powder residue on the vehicles, and some stuck to it. Smells GREAT in there now. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
