MTN thanks for letting me shoot that .308 bolt gun. It was nice on the recoil.
Gstanley its just not the same when your grandaughter does not come. Tell her we miss her on the line.
Your guns are way to snappy for Jedi.

[MTN]

Had a good time nice to see everyone. My friend mike couldn't stop talking about how nice everyone was, and how grateful he was to shoot other people's guns. Food was great, cupcakes awesome.

I would like to thank gstanley for letting me shoot his sporter 1903 Springfield. And cbhausen for shooting the tavor.

My .308 reloads came out better then expected. Had nice grouping on 100 yard line. It will get better once I put the scope back on.

 

[gunbunnies]

Had a great time as always... Good people, good gun's, and good food.....

I took a couple pictures but not many of the group.. there were these sexy gun's laying around soooooo , although I did get one of ericwp shooting his AR 57...

How often do you guys do these? Is it a monthly thing?

I'd love to make the drive up from Indy sometime.

yep, monthly march to november. the next one is 11/2, cmon up! had two members come up from indy this weekend to join us.

 

[aclark]

Only one I got to this year but had fun. Enjoyed shooting the Grendel and compared some shotguns. Never did get down to the 100yd line, maybe next time but the Grendel is good to good I'm sure!

Mark that pistol is pretty cool. So is that 5.7, Eric.

BDS JIN what was the foregrip you had on your AR. I've never seen that one before but liked the egronomics on it.

 

[darkkevin]

had a blast today, got to fire a few new (to me) guns and they all worked well. was a little disappointed the last time i took out my AR with the very expensive Tactical Fire Control, Inc. | 3MR Trigger for AR-15 trigger, but today, i think after a bit of break in, i ran GREAT! shoulda took video, but once i got the right feel for it i could dump a 30rd mag in under 5 seconds easily. prolly quicker, but wasn't timing, need to do that. and dammit mark, i gotta have one of those EXTAR EXP's now. and they'r in stock.........................................................

 

[black label]

It was good catching up with everyone today, and meeting some new people.

Jedi you started it with your weird pinky hug, I just ended it with the bear hug. I was just defending myself.
You were double molested, don't forget about aclark.

DK that extar exp is the least of your worries, t_star said she was going to make you buy her a vector. Guess she didn't drop that bomb yet.

It is the Strike Industries Cobra grip, Cobra Tactical Fore Grip - AR Rail Attachments - AR - RIFLE ACCESSORIES the official retail price is 25, but you can find it from other online retailer for about 20.

 

[cbhausen]

tbhausen and I had a great time coming up and putting a few faces with names. 100 rounds through my P220 (937 total now) and 160 through the Tavor (300 total now) and both firearms are still 100% reliable (although I probably jinxed them now). We shot some nice enough groups with the Tavor to make it seem possible to do an Appleseed with it and actually keep 'em in the black. I'll have to try that someday. There was lots of food and drink and so many firearms... tbhausen imaged many of them while on display. I'll see if he can post them here.

Thanks everyone for your hospitality. Gun folks in general and INGO folks in particular are some of the most cordial you'll every meet!

Had a great time, took my yellow Grendle out to re zero the scope after it got loose. Turns out it was shooting right on target after remounting so no effort was needed other than pulling the trigger.

Got to compare my AR Gold trigger (which is still my favorite) to aclark's CMC trigger and for the money it is hard to justify spending double to get the slightly shorter reset in the AR Gold. I also really liked the flat face and bottom hook on the CMC trigger, made it easy to index finger placement shot to shot. Probably will get a CMC for another of my ARs, it is well worth the price. AR Gold is still a f-ing great trigger, but if you are not competing its probably not worth the cost of admission.

Also thanks to Therese for the maple bacon cupcakes! I got to eat my cupcake and KLBs cupcake.

Didn't mention it, but it was my birthday this weekend so spending time at the range cooking and shooting with friends (and JEDI) is a good way to celebrate.

My condolences on Jedi.

At least he didn't hug me!

 

[gunbunnies]

It was priceless to see Jedi with his own AR even though it did have some graffiti on the stock and some pink on it....
