Cool. If you haven't used one of them yet, you may want to check with Andrew to see how many extras he has left -- you're going to want one after you try it!!! (I've already got one, this one is intended to be my "spare" so I dom't have to always search to find what box I had it in last...)

Rich and I will be there once again. And this time I'll be smart enough to not shoot a gun I've never fired before!

Yes, it'll be the same one as last time. I don't think it made a whole lot of difference, since a Glock is a Glock. Now that I've put my normal type of trigger in it, and I've gotten used to the .45 vs. .40, I should be able to shave a whole .00001 second off over those 12 strings!

I guarantee though, at some point this summer, I'm going to shoot my 10MM in a steel shoot. And not those silly neutered 10s that most companies sell these days. That ought to be fun.

So what is the deal with food and drink? Does the club have canteen or do we bring our own? Do people grill or is cold food the order of the day?

Thanks.

With Mr. Bergquist bringing his truck do you need two? I might hook up with somebody else to share expenses.

Thanks.

You have to bring whatever you need/want. I would recommend bringing something to wash your hands with also.

yeah, things can certainly be done "by hand", but isn't it more enjoyable and often faster when assisted by either the help of a good woman or a well engineered hunk of equipment...? :lol: :twisted: :lol: :twisted:

To answer a question or two.

There is no food available onsite and the closest is about 5 miles down the road. If you want to bring a grill, you're welcome to but expect everyone around you to have big sad puppy eyes while you're eating.
Bring something to drink and sunscreen for exposed skin, it's supposed to be a warm one.
There are Biffs onsite for calls of nature
Bring plenty of ammo and practice your one handed shooting :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

I deeply regret that I cannot make it again - we are moving next week and packing boxes will be my challenge this weekend...

The shop alone is a truckload.
