INGO "Open Carry" CIGAR NIGHT ~ Aug 19, 2010 Schererville

[melensdad]

Another design update, this one looks like a winner!!!

 

[Woodrow]

Yes. Yes. Yes. You have to go with 1911s. Kimber, Para, Colt, Detonics, dig up a Devel if you can find one. 1911 was the way to go.

Now I just have to start with IDPA!

Yes. Yes. Yes. You have to go with 1911s.

. . .

Now I just have to start with IDPA!

Yup, definitely going with the double 1911 pistols. The T Shirts will be a royal blue color. So I think the logo will stand out pretty nicely.

We will give away the T Shirts. Probably to the 'regulars' who visit the lounge and also are informal competitors at local (N.W.I.) events. Oh, and to the hot girls who work at the hot dog stand were I eat lunch The T Shirts will have a large logo on the back and a small logo on the front left chest pocket area (but there won't be a pocket).

I'm going to have some polo shirts made up too, mainly because I don't wear T Shirts. The polo shirts will be high quality shirts with contrasting white ventilated panels down the sides and I'll probably get them in blue and also in red? If anyone wants one of those I'll sell those, but they will have to be special ordered. They will probably be expensive because they will be 4 color process silkscreened, and the shirt I picked is expensive to begin with.

Been watching this thread with interest...I'm originally from the area (Griffith) and now in Indy. I don't get there as often as I'd like, but sent the notice of the 19th on to my uncle who lives in CP. Love the shirt - and a good cigar (Hoya #1 Maduro if my wife will let me away that long!). I'll definitely be stopping in the next time I'm up that way. Have fun Thursday.

Bob, those shirts look good and should draw everyone's attention to the logo on royal blue color.

 

[melensdad]

ONLY 27 hours to go. Event starts at 6pm Thursday evening.

 

[melensdad]

I just got word that a couple guys from Illinois "I-Carry" website may be coming tomorrow. They want to experience an "open carry" friendly culture.

Can't get much more gun friendly than the INGO Open Carry Cigar Nights!!!

[melensdad]

Ask them to join you for a cigar after dinner!!!

 

[DJM95B]

Looking forward to seeing everyone again tomorrow! And three cheers for MelensDad for hosting these and Cigar Bob for bringing the sticks. Thanks guys.

 

[Woodrow]

I'm totally down for that! I wonder how fast I can inconspicuously wolf down my dinner and book back from damn Flossmoor.

 

[tem375]

See you all tomorrow!! I will have to leave earlier than usual but it will be fun anyways.

 

[melensdad]

Looks like we will have 2 guys coming from Illinois' "I-Carry" website. Both are coming down from the NORTH SUBURBS/Lake County, IL.

These are guys who frequent a website that is working to promote carry rights for Illinois and Wisconsin. They are obviously not able to carry openly in Illinois and at least one is probably going to pop his open carry cherry tonight.

My guess is that they will be looking for ideas on all sorts of topics.

 

[tem375]

only 8 hours away!! Those of you in southern indiana need to be leaving pretty soon if you are going to make it.

 

[aclark]

Got caught up at work and with a couple other things so I couldn't make it. I may try to stop in next week after work just to get in and check the place out. Any particular day I should think about melensdad? Probably be around 5ish.

 

[melensdad]

I locked the door to go home at 11:45pm last night. If you had a gun we would have let you in!!!

 

[GhostofWinter]

Had a GREAT time last night Bob. Sorry about keeping you there so late! The conversation was just so good it was hard to just end it. Whenever you have a group of guys talking about guns it just seems that things go on for hours. Can't wait for the next one! LOL

 

[tem375]

I would have liked to stay that late but I had to go help my fiance pack because she was moving this morning. Still had a great time though, and this was the largest one that I have been to so far.
Hopefully next time we can get even more gun owners. Speaking of next time... ...when is it gonna be Bob???

 

[bdj357]

Good times! Good times! Hopefully with my schedule, I can make the next night meet.

 

[Woodrow]

I wish i had known how late it was going to go. I would have made my way. I look forward to next time, and I'll be in this weekend to stock up.
