    How about for father-daughter, as my 14 year old is determined to shoot it as well?

    This looks like a LOT of fun! Already working on a babysitter... If I can get child care, my wife and I are SO in!

    Apone - my daughters all babysit. I have a 17, 14 and 11 y/o and they are always looking for sitting jobs. I know with the newborn you are probably looking for a family member to sit with them but let me know if you can't work anything else out.

    Look, Ron Jeremy, don't you be casting any eyes at my daughter's high heels!

    Oh man...BUSTED! :D

    No no...I've seen her handle an AR before. No messin around here boss. But I did think seeing a girl blasting away with an AR in high heels was one of the funniest things I've seen at the range.

    Awesome - that's like almost two boxes of ammo!




    Yea - well I think Apone and the Mrs have "his and hers" tactical carbines

    Must be love....:D

    Dude...

    She's got one of the best rifles in the house. Of course, she knows that, too. You see - that's strategy... I give her the best, so I can spend what I want on some lesser "junk". 10 happy years of marriage!

    Important Facts about our Zombie Shoot and Registration

    We will be launching registration for our Zombie shoot on August 24th at 8:00pm EDT. We are launching registration in the evening due to the fact that many employers block access to gun related forums and many of you who have emailed me work jobs where you don’t have internet access during the day.
    As this shoot has been advertised on well over a dozen boards, I have decided to post the registration link on only one forum. This way no advantage is given to the members of any one particular board or forum. We fully expect this shoot to sell out within the first hour and as such, it might very well be sold out in the time it takes me to post to all the forums. So here is the only site where the registration link will be posted:

    http://www.therallypoint.org

    The link will be posted in the Mid-Atlantic NY, PA, NJ Forum located here:

    http://www.therallypoint.org/forum/index.php?board=28.0

    I will start a new thread call ZOMBIE SHOOT REGISTRATION
    You will be able to register up to two shooters per registration. Just because you complete the registration form does not mean you’ve been accepted. We anticipate hundreds of registrations for just 100 shooting spots. You will be notified via email by August 27th if you’ve made the list. Only those making the list will be notified. We will be maintaining a waiting list. Should we receive a cancellation, we will go down the waiting list in the order they were received.
    For those who make the list, we will need to receive payment in full by no later than September 10th. If we fail to receive payment by the 10th, your spot will be forfeited and given to the next person on the waiting list. Once we receive payment, you will get a confirming email to that effect. We accept personal checks and US postal money orders ONLY! NO CASH WILL BE ACCEPTED. The price for this event is as follows:

    •LRGC Members: $60.00 each
    •Non-LRGC Members: $75.00 each
    •Non-Shooting Guests: Free

    We shoot in rain, snow, sleet, or shine. We will only delay or cancel our shoot if lightening or weather conditions that would jeopardize personal safety are present. So far we’ve never had to cancel a match. That said, for those who make it in and send their money on time, you can cancel up until October 10th and receive a full refund. After October 10th, no refunds will be given unless we cancel the shoot. If that should happen, your money will be refunded.

    If you are not a current member of LRGC, you will need to be at least 18 years of age to shoot at this event. We regret this but insurance requirements dictate our path. Minor children of non-members are welcome to attend as guests, but cannot participate in the course of fire. All participants will be required to sign our standard release of liability to participate in the shoot.


    Remember this is a shoot and not a match. You will not receive a numeric score. Instead you will need to “survive” each evolution in order to qualify for the grand prize. The rulings of the range safety officers are final. So no chin music! If you fail an evolution you will still be eligible of all of our other prizes and trust me, they are considerable! We have over $9000.00 worth of products, gift certificates and coupons on our prize table. We will also have prizes for the best dressed Zombie Hunting Couple. And yes “couple” is defined as one male and one female. Only one of the couple has to be a registered shooter to qualify for the couple’s prize.

    There will be two distinct courses of fire available for you to participate in at this event:

    1.The Standard Rifle/Carbine Course (i.e. AR, AK, FAL, M1A, M1, rifles etc)
    2.The Scoped Precision Course

    This is a 3-gun style match. All shooters must fire the pistol and shotgun stages with those firearms. Those stages are the SAME for everybody. When it comes to the rifle stages, you must make a choice. You will register as a rifle/carbine shooter, or a scoped precision rifle shooter. You can shoot one or the other, but not both. If you are uncertain which way to go, please know that the precision rifle shooter will be expected to hit .5MOA targets out to 200Y. The rifle/carbine shooter will be presented with actual size targets at various distances from 10 to 200 yards.

    You will need to pick which course of fire you want to shoot at time of registration. Remember, you cannot shoot both. In order to participate in the precision course you will need a bolt or semi-auto rifle of .30 caliber or larger with at least a 10X optic. Please note .50 BMG’s are not permitted at LRGC.
    For the Rifle Course you will need a semi-automatic center fire rifle capable of firing at least 8 rounds without reloading. So for all you M1 Garand shooters, feel free to bring your War Babies!

    Both courses of fire will involve a pistol stage so you will need a pistol with a strong side holster and two spare magazines or speed loaders. Both courses of fire will also include a shotgun stage. Please note only shot shells with #7.5 or smaller shot is permitted (i.e. 7.5, 8 or 9 shot only)

    Please be prepared with the following:

    Precision Rifle- 40 Rounds
    Standard Rifle- 150 rounds
    Pistol- 50 rounds
    Shotgun-40 rounds

    A shooter must begin, and successfully complete all evolutions in order to qualify for ranked prizes. Should stoppages occur, It shall be the final decision of the range staff observing at the time as to whether such stoppage was resolvable by the shooter (or caused by operator error / poor maintenance) or a range malfunction. They alone are authorized to grant a re-shoot, or consider the shooter overcome. This decision is final and without appeal.

    Please be sure to dress for both the event and for conditions. Food and drink will be available for purchase at very reasonable prices for all participants and guests. No alcohol is permitted on site PERIOD! We permit SBR’s, SBS’s and suppressed weapons. Please have your ATF forms handy. If you are a sworn LEO and wish to shoot with your full auto duty weapon, that is permitted but it must stay in semi-auto mode only. Please be prepared to show your agency identification. Other than that, no full autos are permitted. No armor piercing or tracer ammo and we request you not shoot SS109 or M855 at our steel targets. You may shoot this ammo at our paper and polymer targets.

    Please plan on arriving at the club no later than 8:30am. We have a lot to do and much to cover in our opening briefing and we need you to be punctual. We are working on securing discounts at local hotels for those coming from out of town. More on participating hotels will be posted later. Also, we plan on having a vendor’s area for your shopping pleasure.

    Prizes will be awarded after the final shooter has completed their course of fire. You will need to be present to win. LRGC has no provisions to ship any prize. It is important that you know the laws of your State and understand you are responsible for adhering to any State specific rules regarding any firearm accessory you might win i.e. don’t be taking 30 round magazines back to NJ!

    Feel free to email me with any question you may have at lastdefender@aol.com

    Sir, pardon me, but we don't want to hear what you give your wife, and what you're doing with other people's "lesser" junk.

    Dammit too much competition from here. :)

    Those 100 spots are gonna go fast.


    In all seriousness, based on the dozens of emails I've received requesting special consideration or early registration for one reason or another, I believe this shoot will sell out in the first hour.

    So if this event is of interest to you, please don't snooze. Once it sells out the only hope you have is the waiting list. Based on the response from the shooting community to this year's event, we may consider having a Zombie weekend next year. But for 2009, it's 100 shooting spots and that's it.

    Something tells me there's going to be a pretty good representation from the Great State Maryland at Zombie 2009.

    And oh by the way here is a little something posted on this board only...... I have it from a pretty reliable souce....me...that there will be a pretty nice prize awarded to the shooter traveling the furtherest distance. :innocent0

    Good luck to all and thank you very much for your support of our event.

    I've got a buddy that's on the fence about coming, and he would stand a pretty good chance of winning that long distance prize. Might there be any insight as to the prize? :innocent0
