AARs: FREE Range Day at ECPR Provided By INGO and TFT 9/11/11

[pinshooter45]

Thanks to everyone had a great time

Nice to finally meet you in person esrice! Looks like you caught me and my better half getting our breifing. She was disapointed she could not bring her new M4! But we had fun any way and she got used to my 1911 which she had not got much trigger time on. And also was pleased that I finally got her Taurus running right no jams or misfires! Here's are proff of a good time! and don't be fooled by what appears to be misses. the long time between ceasefires made us find unused portions of the targets. Which we both liked BTW!

Was bummed out to miss it. Was about to leave the house to head out when it started raining heavily. Sat down, hoping to wait it out, and I dozed off. Woke up at 3:50pm.

Can't believe I missed KF! Although, Guy had us sequestered over on the public side.

Kirk was on the same side - far right (of course.)

 

[T.Lex]

Aw, man!

Well, that does it. You're just going to have to do it again soon!

I should have done some socializing before we hit the range, but the kids were itching to shoot. They both did pretty well, though I think the Model 60 is a bit heavy for them. I think I'm gonna get a 795 and set it up for an appleseed and let 'em shoot that.

Wish I would've known! I had my AR .22LR conversion bolt in the car, just in case someone accidentally brought their AR!

Nice pics and the facility looks nice. Like the tables and having the targets closer than 25 yards. That gives me an idea for our OCT outing. Where can we get an INGO sign like that & some of that other INGO gear for our NWI outings?

I poked Fenway about it again yesterday. He's looking to have a few more signs made so I told him to up the order.

Again it was nice meeting everyone..... I was the one with the G30 with the white inlay on the barrel.... Great job by the RFOs and always good to see Guy..... First time meeting Fenway and maybe next time he can pull himself away from the greeting table and get on the firing line with his fellow INGOers

Hey why not try the reloading swap meet this weekend?

 

[newtothis]

Was my first time at Eagle Creek. Met some good people. Thank you, INGO for setting this up. I'll definitely be back to Eagle Creek soon (wish they'd allow .223/5.56 though...haha).

Eagle Creek is a legit range.

Sorry bub, no rifle calibers after IPD SWAT was doing sniper training and a few of the rifle rounds make their way accross 56th street.... Ooopsy, now IMPD does their sniper training and SWAT tactics training at Atterbury.

Eagle Creek is a legit range. Agreed

Never heard that. Didn't know the reason-figured it was due to short range distances. Ever walk down to the far end? Plenty of .223 from IMPD still.

Ahhhh so that's the reason why.

Public can't shoot them, but IMPD produces several tons of .223 brass a month at ECPR.

Are there times when ECPR is not open to the public when PD is training?

They only open on weekends, so weekdays belong to IMPD...
