Fall Shoot 2010 - 11/7/2010

Wonder if a video of shooting an Omalley sign with a belt from the 1919 would make mainstream news channels?

Can't remember exactly, but didn't they just rule that taking campaign signs wasn't a crime with that sheriff vs state cop case a while back?

Hopefully cause ive "borrowed" my fair share of election signs in my day

Theres no lack of O'Malley signs around here...

In reality, O'Malley's signs would be perfect. He'll have no use for them if re-elected next week. He'll be restricted by term limits and having "Martin O'Malley for Governor" signs would be pretty pointless, so we might as well recycle them properly.

I have 2 AR500 hanging steel plates, any problems with bringing them this year ? I wanted to stick one out at 100 yards and another at 200 yards.

If I buy something and put it up in my yard and you come along and take it, that's theft, plain and simple.

Although I would argue that it's worse than mere petty theft because it's essentially a suppression of another person's first amendment rights. You wouldn't want someone taking your guns, so don't take away their rights to free speech.

Pardon my digression.

I agree, and would not suggest stealing a sign. But after the election I imagine people would give them away.

If the MSP finds the video, they might come around asking questions.

Looks like I will be toting a load of ammo cans to the shoot. $7 for 5.56(.50 cal size) and $5 for .30 cal size.

Attention members in the Frederick, Hagerstown, Chambersburg, Martinsburg, Cumberland area... I started a carpool thread here:

It's a 3-hour drive so let's save some gas and some sanity and help each other out.

I've got one that I'll have out at 300 as well.

Don't forget MDS members that the clock changes the day of the shoot (i.e. Fall Back) !!!! Set your alarms an hour early just in case !

Just get one of the illegally posted ones off the highway or the telephone poles.

That's where I get the backers for my target stands.

It's suggested that citizens remove the ones posted on public property.

Save me one round of 30-40 Krag?

Spot -- Sorry -- I've had to bail on the Fall shoot. But I'd be happy to rendezvous with you at some mutually agreeable time/place and give you as many rounds on the Krag (or anything else I've got that interests you) as you like...
