    The Mrs. and I will come at 10. I intend to honor my offer of snacks and sodas, however we won't be able to stay the whole time. We'll provide snacks at the range portion that won't leave your hands messy, and I'll scrounge up some wet-naps as well to clean off the gun residues before you munch.

    I was just thinking.....many of us have bought or sold guns on INGO...The big pain is setting up a time and a day not to mention the cost of gas...and hoping the guy shows. My suggestion is if anyone has something to sell or something they want to trade...hey, why not bring it.
    Also I am sure there are times someone has something to sell ....that probably isn't worth a lot of money.....but they don't want to list it and have to do a lot of driving to meet someone....then it just isn't worth it.
    Seems like a lot is going to crammed in a short period of time.

    Just was out at the range and was thinking...does anyone have a spotting scope that they are bringing? Also does anyone coming have a bore sighter? I broke in my rifle barrel today, but I still need to sight it in on Sat. I have no problem going and buying one, but if someone already has one, and is willing to bring it, it would save me a headache.

    Any other non-firearm/non-picnic items that anyone can think of that we might want to bring. I know a lot of people always pack some of these items, but its better to list them than to not have them. (ie staple gun/tape, targets, cleaning supplies, etc)

    I'll have some zombie targets with me, along with some Osama bin laden targets. I'll also have a staple gun, but gotta see if I can find some staples, its empty.

    I have a spotting scope I can bring. It's not the best, but it gets the job done when needed.

    UNLESS they changed the backstop since this last spring, they backstop is chickewire, and the targets were held up by spring type clothespins. I would suggest picking up a bag of them for target holders.

    OK folks. It's about 24 hours from the time when we will all be meeting to shoot. I would like to put a few reminders here. FIRST off for those that are bringing food. PLEASE bring all the fixings you need. By this I mean if you are bringing hot dogs. bring the buns. If you are bringing BBQ, same thing bring the buns you need. I have a bottle of ketchup and mustard that I will be bringing as well as the burrgers, and buns. I believe we have the plates, silverware, and napkins covers. I have an empty laundry soap dispenser that I will be bringing with water for washing hands, as well as some of the hand sanitizer.

    I will be picking up the case of 9mm ammo today to both augment my stores, and in case anyone was unable to pick any up. The case price is $200 which works out to $20 per hundred. I have a few boxes of .22lr that I could part with if need be as well.(going to stop by wally world today and see if I can score another 6 boxes of it)

    I just checked the weather for tomorrow and it appears that its going to be partly sunny, windy and about 50 all day. Not the BEST conditions for shooting, but doable.

    I am still planning on attending but it looks like i might have to become a maybe. I still haven't started working and won't until next week and since i won't be able to leave until after 12 I can't carpool. I don't know if i can afford the gas to get there, since i'm on empty as it is. Heres hoping!

    Today I stopped at the Portage walmart. No bulk packs of .22, 5 boxes of .40, some 223 bulk packs, and a few other small boxes. But I did buy paper plates, knives, spoons, forks, and napkins. I forgot to grab paper towels. I also picked up a case of Pepsi and a case of Mtn. Dew. Hope to see everyone in the morning.

    I have a couple of boxes of 22lr (about 1000 rounds) , and a box (100 rounds) of .223 that I am bringing, I will stop by the Schererville wally world (or maybe cabelas) in the morning to pick up some 12 ga. and maybe some .308. I have some targets too.
    Am getting ready to assist the boss in making her baked beans and will also be bringing plates and plastic utensils.
