Thanks again for all the work that went into this.

I would like to say thanks to the Stemmer's Run Rilfe & Pistol Club and the volunteers for their time and efforts. It was a great time had by all, I think. The steel pins were a big it, also thanks to Beth for keeping track of the shooters times. Can't wait for the next month. Will post some pictures tonight.

Feel free to try to break them again next month

Not THAT hard to weld, you did preheat... right?

I know, saw your post on page one, I was the long haired guy w/ the camera and shooting the sig .45, cant really say I shot my ruger mkII cause it was acting all sorts of stupid on me, FTE and double feed plus the trigger started messing up as well.
I also took about 300 photos (tho camera was set to full auto so some are 10 shot strings of the same person shooting).

Now to get back to work, have some welding to do

Wow this looks great! I'll be putting it on the calendar for next month!

wreckdiver · April 15th, 2012, 03:31 PM

Looks like fun. That should give me an incentive to get over there and renew for the year. Ive been spending all my time shooting indoors lately.

Public shoot, show up even if you haven't renewed

brianong18 · April 16th, 2012, 08:28 AM

Bring anybody interested too. It's a ton of fun. There should be another shooting position open at the next shoot so more people should be able to have a go at it.

jbollman · April 16th, 2012, 09:56 AM

Thanks for posting the photos.

brianong18 · April 28th, 2012, 12:01 AM

The next pin shoot is coming up. May 5 from noon to about 3:30-4:00. I'll be there. Hope to see more of you folks out. It was a blast last time.

GNLaFrance · April 28th, 2012, 12:08 AM

I'd love to do this, but I can't stand unsupported for long. Is there a class for seated shooters?

brianong18 · April 28th, 2012, 09:38 AM

How long can you stand? The rounds go by quick. 5 rounds that are 30 seconds each.

Kingjamez · April 28th, 2012, 09:50 AM

I'll be at the May 5 event. Can't wait!

THier · April 28th, 2012, 10:34 AM

I unfortunately will miss the May 5 pin shoot,, I am helping with the March of dimes walk for babies,, and my daughters have an event at their school as well,, too many things scheduled May 5.

Can't wait either. This month was my first time going. I am hooked. Started going at a good time since they started using steel pins.

CroftonBilly · April 29th, 2012, 09:06 PM

Hooked also, see you there.

Marauder · May 3rd, 2012, 08:57 PM
