I am really bummed I couldn't make it. I had to do some work on a house in the Poconos. My planned trip to gun shops in the Stroudsbergs was a failure. Both town had a St Patty's Day parade marching down their shared Main street.

 

Matt, I should've realized you were going to shoot your S&W 686 today when you showed me the handloads. I would've given you a few of my hellacious 357 handloads to try out.

 

On a different note:

Anybody looking to buy a nearly new Dan Wesson Bobtail?

It's just taking up room in my safe.

 

 

This picture pretty much sums up the day!

 

 

Though we had a catastrophic failure with a pistol purchase permit which left me without a new 1911. I was still able to get down to Ft. Dix meet up with friends and do some shooting. The weather was absolutely amazing and topped out around 77 and all in all it was an awesome day. And then I even had to fix Tim's truck b/c he's mechanically challanged!

 

But a good day even with the epic disappointment

A thread dedicated to busting on Matt. :clap:

It's not the first,,, won't be the last.

I just wanted to mention, especially for you guys I have not met yet.

You suck, You REALLY REALLY SUCK

 

 

But seriously, I had lunch with my mom & my sister and my nephew who is leaving for basic training tomorrow.

 

 

Weather permitting, I will be at Dix on Wednesday.

Gosh, I really need to get out there.

Aside from weekends, which from all indications are busy, how is it during the weekday? Also, what days is the range open? I tried accessing their site, but it doesn't seem to be around currently. From what I have gathered, the schedule was: Wednesday (1-8pm), Friday (1-8pm), Saturday and Sunday (8am-4pm)-- is it still the same? I've also read its relatively not busy during the Spring/Summer, but a madhouse prior to hunting season... true?

And, lastly, regarding targets in general-- anything goes as long as its not glass or whatnot, correct? I'm thinking about just getting some real estate sign holders from a hardware store, and retrofitting those to be target stand worthy.

 

Oh, and to clarify, $60 for membership and $3 an hour, correct? And you can sign up/pay and shoot on the same day? If so, I might have to go this Wednesday...

 

Dangit, one more thing. What do they, the range, consider "weather permitting" since its an outdoor range and all?

I was so annoyed I missed today, I just started a new thread about going next Sunday. I am clearing out my calendar.

Yeah we suck, but we had FUN.

Ben....

 

Yes.

 

during the weekdays, not busy at all, only perhaps during the first hour or so.

 

On the weekends, it really is not bad. Especially now since the pistol range is open as well, and I have never seen it get busy/full.

Outstanding, thanks, Maks. I don't mind waiting a bit, but some of the things I've read on other forums sounded a bit extreme (two hour waits, etc). Since the weather is getting better, why not shoot outside? And since I'm primarily a rifle guy, I always feel cooped up shooting indoors . Do you guys still do the meet ups on Wednesdays?

AWESOME time today wish I could have stayed longer

 

What Sierra book did you guys say to pick up?

 

This one: http://www.midwayusa.com/viewproduct/?productnumber=946494

Ben, (or anyone else)

 

If you have a CAC card, Active, retired, Dod Civ, contratctor, the cost to join is cut in half. I believe the Fri hrs (1-8) start sometime in April to Oct

yes.... wed's depending on weather... only a few of us.

What's the address also? I can't seem to find it anywhere.

No friggin clue....

 

I just put the intersection of

 

Cookstown Browns Mill Rd, & Cookstown Wrightstown Rd, in Cookstown, NJ.

 

When you get there, continue following Cookstown Browns Mill Rd south for about 2 miles. You will see signs for various ranges on the left and right. Keep going down till you hit a sign for Fort Dix Range 14 on the left hand side. Make that left, go straight down. You will see it ahead of you. Follow the road to the end, passing the trap ranges on the left.

How's the 31st sounding to you guys?

Damn, looks like it was a good day to shoot. Sucks to work on a Sunday afternoon! Maybe next time.

Hey Chris,

 

Just got a new permit on Friday and have the cash. Could you bring it tomorrow night? I'll help you make room in your safe!

You might have to fight Matt for it though. I'm pretty sure you can take him though.

Hey, I got money and permit in hand. First come....

Keith, I have posted a Marine sniper across the street from Chris's front door. You won't make it two steps out of his front door buddy I don't think its worth it

Thanks fore the heads up Matt. Chris, will meet someplace away from your place.

He would still have to make it out of his own house with my gun, not gonna happen

Matt, did you know that lunker has a picket fence encircling his yard made entirely out of rare, unissued 1939 pre-production Sako M39's? The same fence made out of pure rapper-grade platinum would have cost less. Its truly a sight to see.
