[74novaman]

AND I'll be bumping this daily so we can get the biggest group possible to see it/come.

[74novaman]

From what I can tell on this thread so far, here's the current roll call. If we can get a pretty good idea of numbers, it might make the restaurant thing easier.

Chime in and let us know if this is right and how many extras you're bringing! I'm pretty excited to meet some forum people and get to shoot together!

Update the OP for date/place/time?

[Estand]

Correct by me. I am 90% sure I will be solo.
Here's a list of what I plan to bring. Anyone is welcome to try anything if you can provide the ammo please (brass only please, except the AK47 doesn't matter)
Handgun:
(S&W) M&P 40 compact + 9mm conversion
M&P 40 FS
M&P 45 FS
Kahr P40
Kahr PM40
Ruger 22/45 MKIII (NIB, needs to be broke in, I have ammo)
Rifle:
DPMS LR .308 AP4
M&P 15-22(lc)
AK47 Yugo under folder (7.62x39)

Again, I will have new unopened full size M&P 45 mags (10 & 14 rnds) in case anyone happens to have FS 40 or 9mm mags they want to trade.
I know, long shot with such a small crowd but putting it out there.

[srothstein]

Date is this Saturday, June 18
Time is 11:00 for lunch, 1:00 for shooting
Location is Kreuz's Barbecue for lunch (11:00), Lone Star Range for shooting (1:00).

[UpTheIrons]

I should be bringing 4 people total. Wife, Boy Child, and father-in-law have all expressed interest.

As for guns, I'll have: a Kimber Custom II 1911, Ruger SR9c, Ruger Single-Six convertible (22LR/WMR), a Browning Buck Mark, and maybe a Crickett or Savage Cub (it's pink!). Any and all are welcome to shoot, so long as you bring factory ammo to run through it.

SewTexas, are you willing to let others test-drive your LCP? I've got .380, and no gun to shoot it in yet, so I'd like to try a mousegun like yours.

Estand, I may need to pick up some .308 to try that DPMS LR .308 out, too.

If this keeps up, I'll not even get to shoot my own guns! Looks like there are plenty that I've never had a chance to shoot that are going to be available.

[Estand]

Estand, I may need to pick up some .308 to try that DPMS LR .308 out, too.

Btw if you see any 7.62x51 NATO, that's fine too. And often cheaper if you find it. Cabellas, Walmart & Academy often have that in WWB. It's a 16" carbine with a red dot, or Nikon scope w/qd LaRue mount.


I am wanting to try that Keltec 2000!

[rubiconjp]

I'll bring my family as well since they are interested in Kreuz BBQ. However because of this, I probably won't be able to join the shooting session.

[Chemist45]

Not sure what Mrs. Chemist and I will bring - mainly handguns.
I have a PS-90 I can bring if people want to try it out.
I'll bring 2 loaded mags (100 rounds). More than that, and I'll need a donation for ammo.
Or you can bring your own 5.7 ammo.

Anyone have an FN Five Seven they can bring?

[SewTexas]

Uptheirons, yes, you may certainly test the LCP , not a problem

[UpTheIrons]

Cool! Thanks!

Is this bad news:

viewtopic.php?f=10&t=45970&p=559754#p559754" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

going to make any difference in our plans? Apparently without already being a "friend" on face book the info at the link is not visible, so don't know if it is posted there or not. I was just starting to look up the exact location for tomorrow's drive..

[74novaman]

That is terrible news. Does anyone know if the range will be open now? I wouldn't blame them for closing....

[srothstein]

Wow, that is bad news.

Quick poll:

Do we still meet at Kreuz's and see then about the range
Do we change the location to a different restaurant and range?
Do we change the date to June 25?

I would still like to go tomorrow, and can see changing to another location. My first choice for a quick change would be Deitz's, but I think we might overcrowd it with all of us showing up. Their rifle range has plenty of room, but their pistol range only takes about 10 people on line at a time.

[74novaman]

We can still do tomorrow, their website says they open at 9 so we can call and see if they're open. If not, still meet for BBQ and find a range from there?
