Six Days to the Blogshoot

Blogshoot is still on for Saturday. weather sunny, with a high of 50, so bring a sweater and/or a jacket.

And aside from Keads' bowling pin shoot and Larry the Historian's .50 Barrett, I'm thinking that we still need something more to make it fun.

So I'll put up a nominal prize to whoever brings--and fires--the most interesting firearm, to be determined by consensus of the other shooters.

I will exempt myself from consideration, but all others are invited to bring the interesting.

PS--rumor has it that Nancy wants to try the pin shoot with her muzzle loader. That sounds fascinating, but our regular shot timer will obviously be inadequate for scoring such a weapon so I'll be going to the store today to buy a calendar.

  2. Nancy would be entitled to whack you in the shin with her muzzle-loader. And an experienced smokepole shooter can fire three times a minute ... if they don't fall asleep in-between. :)

    So maybe an egg timer ..?

  10. I guess Brendan and I will be considered boring if based on what we bring to shoot. I don't think we have an interesting boomer betwixt us.

    Need to know two things please:

    Can we shoot at binary explosive targets at the range we will be using?

    The address of the range again please, I cannot find it.

    Thanks,
    Glenn B
