Old Bridge USPSA 6-24-12
I appreciate the offer Jon but I do need to go to Jackson. Made a deal in the marketplace and tomorrow is the best day for both of us. I'm gonna get some chores done around the house too -- How do you guys get away from the wife every weekend to shoot. Maybe I could get her interested like Mike and Cheryl -- Then I'd have her asking me to take her shooting!!! Jer

Old Bridge USPSA 6-24-12
I'd love to join you guys and try this out but I never got around to making bullets this week. Besides that I've got to go to Jackson to pickup a 1911 in .38 super. I'll check the calendar and see what next week brings at OB. Have fun and be safe -- Jer

Charles, I'm just getting in today -- Did you get my phone # thru PM's? I'll try emailing it to you, maybe that will work better with your phone. I have no PM's here and the only emails I have from you are regarding posting your pictures of the 5.7 Jer

Old Bridge Sunday Steel 6/17
none of that happened -- guess it was just a miscommunication between time keeper the person who actually logged it in. We had 6 different people on the clipboard throughout the day.

I'll never run a 9mm -- Silly little girl bullet.

I know when I was doing the score sheet you did have a couple DNFs on the scorecard. I don't know why. I don't really know the rules. Does missing a plate cause a DNF?

Old Bridge Sunday Steel 6/17
I'm actually ok with my score -- 158.85 I shot a 1911 in 45acp -- 7rnd mags --I did have a few rounds where I had to change mags. I really don't have much experience drawing from a holster either. I've got a score to improve on now. I'll be cutting my own plates over the weekend to get some practice. I'll do better next time. Jer

Airsoft is hard on the wallet
I live 3 minutes from Godfather -- Been there a dozen times -- Lots of "not in stock" on the wall but we go there to get "hands on" a certain piece before buying elsewhere. I have had a good experience with their airsoft tech though -- His name is Vince -- Very friendly and was able to get me through an M4 rebuild without me even buying anything from him -- He even gave me deans connectors out of his personal box O stuff said he doesn't use them. The owner just never rubbed me right - I've met him a few times The places he has for gameplay are, to me, way overpriced. I'm sure he's got a huge insurance bill but it still is a good chunk of cash to shoot plastic BB's at each other for a couple hours. Jer

Old Bridge USPSA 6-24-12
Sounds like this one is gonna be hell on my reloaders disease --- the absolute need to recover every piece of brass fired I'm on the fence at the moment -- How long do these usually run on sunday? Does the registration time run out? Jer

I think I put 13 rnds down range one time. I know the time was like 18 seconds. I swear those plates where moving...

1911-22 or a revolver .22 for the wife under $400(suggestions please)
When we where shopping for my wife we went to a few local shops and tried everything in her hand. That's how the decision was made -- what fit her. It ended up being a smith model 60 with a 3 inch barrel. She loves it. I load .38 wadcutters and she'll shoot 200 rnds a range session. Since this small revolver was hers only I had her get her FID and her own pistol permit.

WTS: Hogue 1911 Rubber Grips
If Mike doesn't want them I'll take them. I've got a 1911 build brewing and was thinking hogue wraparounds. Jer

Old Bridge Sunday Steel 6/17
you're welcome Mike -- Cheryl did all the work, I just held the flashlight and confirmed she got it all. I didn't want her to need an extra hand and have to come looking for help. The more I think of it we should have saved the piece. I'm pretty sure it was lead but it certainly could have been some brass or copper with the lead. Like a piece of copper jacket. Fire out of battery maybe but I don't think it was a slam fire while loading another round. I was right next to her on the left, she fired a round, then was hit with shrapnel, there was not a second discharge. I do agree she was hit too fast for it to be her own fragments coming back at her. I'm not so sure it wasn't from another pit. That piece wasn't very deep -- it didn't take much to remove it. Just a brushing with her finger and it was out. I guess we'll never know. Jer

Old Bridge Sunday Steel 6/17
Addictive --- Really??? I had a great time too -- things got better once I settled down and remembered to aim. There was no pressure at all but I still found myself jittery at the line. You regulars really did make it easy for us new guys -- Thanks Jer

Old Bridge Sunday Steel 6/17
It sure didn't seem like the second session was planned when it was announced. I would bet quite a few bailed on it too.

Thanks for the offer -- We'll be driving a GMC safari van lifted in the rear like the A team van. I'll have an AR15 on my shirt with an ACU boonie hat. Jer

Old Bridge Sunday Steel 6/17
Alright Myself and my son a gearing up to shoot this tomorrow -- What happens with lunch? Last time I was there they had a barbecue running but that was the big match at the beginning of the month. We also are looking for some Ruger MK III mags -- I've got 2 so I could always load for my son He's gonna shoot the MKIII hunter. I've got enough mags for my gun 1911 45acp How do they handle the newbs? Do they try and keep them on 1 squad or are we able to join you guys if you'll have us? Jer

Recommendation for 1911 pistol in 22LR
Bummer -- I could have sworn I saw on another post that your son did YSB at old bridge. I guess I should have looked at your home range and figured it out. Sorry for the confusion -- The offer does stand though -- I just ordered a short LOP trigger and a different grip mag to make the gun fit small hands -- Should work out sweet for them and I get to buy another so it will fit me Jer

Any mortgage gurus around? Ri-Fi
I pay my taxes quarterly -- Makes the monthly payment easier -- no escrow I still need to squirrel away almost 1000 per month for them but it still seems easier than the mortgage co doing it for me House appraised at $285,000 -- property taxes are almost $11,000 per year -- something is wrong with this
