Not me...I've moved across the country

 

[guthook]

Some of us moved to safer pastures. (Sanner's Lake)

 

[Edward78]

I dont blame you. The last few times I went down there it was a little crazy

 

[Capt Skup]

Many report how unsafe the Grove is, but I cannot recall any accidents ever taking place. I have caught people handling firearms with the range called cold, and some idiotic replys but no accidents.

I haven't witnessed accidents resulting in notable injuries - worst case I've seen is 'Garand Thumb'.

However I have been down there when a bloody baseball hat was found in the trash can, and a few drops of blood on the concrete pad - Table 3/4 area.

It's been pretty safe the few times I've visited, but they're all Friday mornings. BradMacc, was that you joking about everyone being government workers two weeks ago?

Possibly.

If you saw a bolt rifle on the table I was on, then it was probably me.

must not have been too bad or it would have made the news there. Still would be interesting to know what happened. Different story but I thought someone said a guy was down there trying to quick draw, slipped on some brass and shot himself in the leg/thigh...this was a few years ago now.

It didn't look to be too bad by what me and Dan saw, but it's still an attention getter.


I've heard some stories, but I couldn't say how true they were.

well if you smelled rotting flesh then I'd be concerned a little more

With all the bugs and critters running around there, flesh wouldn't have a chance to rot.

Wildlife has to eat too.

Myrtle Grove. Getting flagged and muzzled is an art form:
Haven't seen so many flags since the U.N. building tour...
MG has more muzzling than the Preakness...

As heard at MG:
-"Those ain't baffles, thems, there is targets!"
-"You don't need targets for the stands, they do just fine by themselves!"
-"How many rounds of AP do you think it'll take me to shoot through the baffle support?"
-"Whaddaya mean I can't shoot buckshot at the stands?! Oh yeah, that's what the shack is for...silly me."
-"Of course I can go change my target during live fire, I'll walk in my lane. Do you think I'm stupid?"
-"...half a cat."
-"...RAPE WHISTLE!!!"

The only dumb shit I have ever seen at MG was someone monkeying with a stuck round in a brand new Henry while the range was cold.

You forgot one - "I don't know how the hell you managed to do that...", when you tried helping me with that 60gr Vmax handload a while back.

lol. Sounds like you've been doing pretty good since the last time I saw you. I may have to don a plate carrier and pay the Grove a visit soon. My life is getting boring.

 

[K.C.Dean]

who else sells the passes for Myrtle now that Fred's is closed?

The Walmart in LaPlata sells passes.

The Grove is always good for a bit of excitement, probably why I keep going back.
