Friday Night Steel 6-11-10

[USMC_0311]

I reckon we'll skip this one, then. I can't afford to spend that much gas just to have it rained out, and not knowing if he'll have enough mags to shoot No biggy. We are going to hit the range in a little bit, and shoot up some rubber spinners. It'll give him a chance to practice more for next month, and I'l be able to have some .38s loaded for next time, too, so I can join the revolver squad and shoot, too.

If you change your mind I have 3 10/45 mags. I will be there rain or shine going to pick up some ammo anyways.

Guys, we will shoot rain or shine. If it's raining, we will simply move the firing line back to underneath the covered line. Now if it's thunder and lightning then we would have to cancel...

Well sweet! I like the spirit. Fantastic.

No immediate threats I've seen on radar...yet. I know there is a good chance all weekend.

It's getting just a tad damp outside. A little noisy, and slightly gusty, too.

 

[HICKMAN]

looks like two cells moving in, the first one might be done by start time, with the other coming in later tonight.

Guess we'll see when we get there

 

[singlesix]

Good Grief. Just hitch up your skirts.

 

[HICKMAN]

Good Grief. Just hitch up your skirts.

We shoot in the rain all the time, it's the hail and lightening I don't mess with.


Looks like it will blow over pretty quick.

 

[Slow Hand]

lookin' pretty nasty out there guys maybe you all should stay home....I'll bring a second gun to help take up the slack!!

 

[AllenM]

Well that was fun

 

[BrandonM]

That was a blast! My times are going to be lackluster, but I had a blast. Special thanks to lovemywoods for letting me shoot my first revolver! vupdblue for all the great knowledge! Any others that we in my squad let me know, we all need to have a sticker or something put on our shirt that say our username so we can connect faces to on here lol

 

[DarcEagle]

i agree with the user name thing for those who care i would be the 300 lb guy with a Mohawk shooting the gsg-5/glock 17

 

[Joe Williams]

Sigh. Looks like ya'll ran it. Reckon we should have gone. We were getting hammered here, so didn't figure you would

Oh well, like I said, there is next month.

Ah we were in the same group, I was shooting the springfield 1911

2 years

I have only saw FNS cancelled 1 time due to weather. I have shot in the rain. heat, snow and very, very cold. As the saying goes, "The show must go on!!!!"

 

[firehawk1]

Looked to be a blast! I was the "spectator" in the black shirt standing behind the line watching you all.

Looks like I need to get busy sighting everything in for next month!!!

 

[Simon6101]

Sounds good

Sounds like you had the same regret most spectators do. "Why Didn't i bring my gun?"
