It is currently 11 F here. It makes me sick that you guys can shoot in the middle of winter!  ------------------------------- Will / Once you've been amongst them, there is no such thing as too much gun. --------------------------------------- and, God Bless John Wayne.

So can we . . . we just have to do it in our boxers between 6:30 and 7:30 a.m., taking care to stay well hydrated.  Mike | |||

We shoot here down to zero F. No gloves while shooting. If you like shooting, it's really not bad at all. But picking up empties in the snow sucks. | |||

Rusty; I'll try to be there. I shoot there at lunch fairly often; mostly at the 50yd practicing for smallbore shilouette. Probably will be bring one or both of my sons (11 & 14). No big bores but some fun rifles none the less. Pete A. | |||

Mike, If you'd just not make a stop at every gun shop between Kingwood and Juliff, you could make the trip in a little over an hour! Be good to see ya Sunday! Rusty We Band of Brothers!

Rusty; So far all is clear with the required officials (my wife) and I'll be there with one or more of my team. I'm a member at Bayou Rifles and can help with any guests. Will bring as many firearms and ammo as my trunk will allow. Seems to be bad form to leave the range with anything but empty shells! Pete A. | |||

So sorry I missed it; I had every intention of coming but work got in the way. I'm sure you all will have a wonderful time; what a great crowd! "Experience" is the only class you take where the exam comes before the lesson. | |||

It was a nice day to spend with nice folks. Hopefully Fjold and Rusty can post a few pictures. Fun to have Frank shoot, quite well, his first >.375 rifles. Mike | |||

Fjold, thanks for coming to Houston and giving us a good reason to get together. Rusty, thanks for putting everyone together for a fun morning and thanks for lunch! It was good to meet a few new faces and to see some of the regulars again. It really is fun to think that so many like-minded Houstonians were able to get acquainted via a Dubai sponsored website. ______________________________ "Truth is the daughter of time."

Jim, it looked about 9.5 mm to me. Great fun yesterday, guys. We had a neat assortment of guns to shoot, mix of big and small bores, doubles and bolt. Great company. Rusty, thanks for organizing. Bob | |||

Rusty, Just pulling your leg. I've seen you shoot. Maybe when Frank finds the picture he can post it - is this the one where Elvis is holding the target?  SCI Life Member DSC Life Member | |||

2 bullets, 1 hole. That's my story and I am sticking to it. [Rusty, is the statement above okay? Just bring the check to Dallas and I will pick it up there.] Mike | |||
