Lever Gun Shoot, Dec 14

[BlueFin]

Come shoot mine! Look for the fat guy in a MD shooters shirt or a Steelers hoodie. I'll have my saiga in 7.62x39 as well.

Sure be glad to. See you tomorrow.

Thanks

Sorry I didn't get to see or meet everybody today. I think I met about 5 or 6 people including Bluefin, PRyker and Hughmon, and a few others that I can't recall.

Phil - Cresap is a first class operation. Y'all run a nice range.


Hugh = Thanks for letting my son shoot the 17.

Guys,

Thanks for organizing the lever gun shoot! It was sure nice meeting everyone.

What a blast! It was very busy so it was hard to keep all of you guys together but sure was heck of a lot of fun! Good weather too! I believe the first 3 hours straight we had people waiting on rifle benches and then through to close we had people waiting on pistol benches... man, what a day! I guess everyone who has been buying guns decided to start shooting them now.

I want to thank everyone for being very safe as well. You guys made a good impression on the older members. I believe shoots like this will become easier and easier to put together in the future!

Yea, that is a very nice range. I even got a free camber stick for my Saiga, rather than using a spent shell.. It is about the same distance as Hap Baker too, might have to use Cresap more. I just wish you could do some off hand rifle shooting

I didn't get a chance to meet anyone I don't think, except a nice gentleman with glasses who drives a Hummer. The place was so packed I didn't even really try to be honest.

What a great day for a shoot! I had a great time, and it was wonderful meeting everyone.

Thanks to Phil and the staff a Cresap! I always enjoy myself shooting a Cresap, and part of that enjoyment is that I always feel safe shooting there. As busy as the range usually is, that is a real testament to efforts of the staff.

Sorry that I did not meet everyone, perhaps at the next shoot!

I think Phil mentioned the possibility of other themed shoots such as a Russian theme, and I am all for that.

Sorry I didn't make it guys, this weekend got hectic quick. The wife's grandmother is up at Hershey Med. Center and just when it seems she's recovering something else seems to go wrong. Another theme I think would be fun is a black powder shoot.

 

[BlueFin]

It was a blast. I wish we can do this more often. I am in for the Russian theme shoot.

Russian/Commie shoot would be cool too.

P.Ryker - It was nice to meet you on Sunday. Cresap is a nice range and you guys run a pretty tight operation there. That was my first time there. Boy, was it crowded! A little too crowded for my tastes personally. I guess that is a good sign for the shooting community that it was crowded, certainly was nice weather.

I overslept and didn't get there until about 11:00am. I only met a few of the folks there shooting. I didn't feel comfortable wandering around the lanes and talking with folks while there were people waiting for a lane to shoot.

It was the first time I had shoot my Marlin 336 30-30. It felt good but I had some issues with the pre-mounted scope that came with the rifle. I need to get smarter on the scope and get it rifle zeroed.

I also shoot the Winchester 70 30-06 that I had bought on Saturday up in Harrisburg, Pa. It needs a scope, I wasn't hitting too much with the iron sights. I could definitely feel the 30-06 effect in my shoulder this morning A little sore, but in a good way!

Does Cresap allow taking pics? I will bring a camera next time.

I meant Russian/Commie shoot. I do not own a Rusky gun

not in the facilities from what Topher and P.Ryker have said, it's due to the fact cameras turn some folks into idiots who do dumb things and the possiblity of the pictures being used in a bad light for gun owners.

Sorry for digging up this thread.


Wanna do it again?

 

[joppaj]

Pick a date, maybe I can make this one.

 

[hughmon]

I'm game, as long as I am free.

Truth be told I have not shot the 'ol Appalachian AR in awhile.
