The Second Saturday is fast approaching and that means a Steel Shoot (Yeah, I know it's not a third Saturday, but there you are).

OK. What's needed
just like the Second rule of gunfights states......Bring a Gun!...... 9mm, .38, 41, 44, 45, will do the job.

Holster, not needed for a Tyro, but you cannot shoot Man v Man without one. The trigger MUST be covered.
Round count, in a perfect world 100 would suffice. If you have the slightest idea you might miss, bring more....lots more. I don't miss much but I still bring 200
Hearing protection, if you want to be able to talk with your grandkids bring it, learning sign language at 50 isn't easy.
Eye Protection, good quality sunglasses, safety glasses or prescription glasses are MANDATORY, they should wrap around the side or have side panels.
Think of your shooting glasses as your American Express Card, don't leave home without them. We're shooting at Steel, bullets shatter, pieces of them bounce.
Clothes...This is Minnesota, bring snow clothes, rain gear, sunscreen, shorts....you get the picture...be a boy scout.

If you believe the TV weather liars, we should have a nice day... Maybe

Hydration, bring something to drink, it may be hot (or cold) so bring water or something else.
Food, the town is six miles from the range and there are no facilities on site, bring some lunch, you might get hungry otherwise.
Start Time, Setup will be at 8:30, Shooting will start at 9:30.
COF, Four stages, each of 4 strings with the best three times to count. The winner will be the one with the lowest total time for the 12 runs.

$15 for Non Members, $10 for Members. (Gopher Campfire Club Members)

If I can find someone to cover my oncall for the day and the wife is feeling ok. I will be there for sure.

[LarryFlew]

Just so no one worries about being at the bottom of the heap I'll be there again

Whew!

I wish I wish I wish...

I'm going to be back in MN for a while after October 15th, so if I can finagle a gun to use and find some ammo, I may be able to shoot on the 19th. (Fingers crossed)

I think I know where you can get those along with holster and mag holders.

I don't have the fancy gear like some others but you're welcome to use mine. The only thing I don't have a spare of is a belt.

[Jeff Bergquist]

I appreciate the offers, and there is plenty of time to sort things out, but I do still have my Safariland adjustable holster and a couple 9/40 doublestack mag holders since I thought those things might be hard to get in Costa Rica if I had an opportunity to do some shooting here. Also it goes without saying, but I'll say it anyway, that I will pay rent for whatever gun I use and pay for the ammo. Thanks again for the kind offers, you gun guys are such a bunch of enablers.

Got a brother-in-laws graduation party to go to. So no bang ping for me.

In bitches, as long as the wife is feeling ok.

[Rotary12]

Good thing I looked. I would have missed this one.

[Doc Harvey]

Sorry to miss this one! Hope y'all have great weather!

[Ski_Doctor]

Oh man I wish I could make it but I'm otherwise occupied. Please post the next time something like this pops up.
