The railroad has been hiring.

Tri-City Gun Club is close but no air conditioning. lol

Have you been there recently? I used to go there to use the range on a regular basis for the reasons you listed. Last time I was there, probably last fall, half the lights in the range were burnt out, the AC wasn't on, and half of the lanes were closed due to the electronic target retrieval...

Not sure it is still there, BUT they HAD 2 in stock that day.

Not sure that I have ever carried while wearing them, but I wear them at work all the time. When I hired out with the railroad I bought them because that was what most of the older railroaders were wearing. Now I wear them because they are comfortable and you don't have to pull your pants up all...

Thanks for the post. Stopped into Atwood's today because of the post and had a look at the pistol. While there I noticed they had a Girsan MC P35 (Hi Power clone). I've been looking for one of those for a while. Still looking for a SA-35 but the P35 will hold me over for a while.

Springfield Armory SA-35 But have yet to see one in stock anywhere.

I really like Archery Traditions in Yukon and War Torn in Mustang. Archery Traditions is primarily dedicated to traditional archery and they have a large indoor range. War Torn used to be inside Archery Traditions but moved to their own shop in Mustang. They concentrate more on compound. Hope...

I received the random number email, 2150, on the 16th. Haven't heard anything else.

Update to my own thread from a long time ago..... Tech-Sights work like the sights on an M16A1. The front sight is to get you in the ball park while zeroing the rifle. The rear sight is to fine tune and to adjust for different distances. Hope this might help anybody else that has the same...

I had a local FFL holder submit a copy of their license. The expiration date of their FFL was after the mailing period but not long after. An email from the CMP said this FFL wouldn't be good enough due to the expiration. Then our friend, 1911 admin, made a post contradictory to the email I had...

I'm in. Fingers are crossed that I didn't screw anything up with the constantly changing guidelines that weren't in the rules but are being treated as if they always were.

Happen to have any milsurps?

Happen to have a link? Thanks.

Nice looking revolvers. I kind of wish I had picked one up when they were easily available.

Meh is about right. The first day I shot a 257. Both my prones were lower than normal but my off-hand was good. If both my prones had been normal I'd have done really well (for me). The second day I shot a 241. In slow prone thing would seem to settle down. Shot a great group in rapid...

So how is everybody doing in the games? I shot a garand yesterday and today and will be doing so again tomorrow.

Happen to know anybody that is either Law Enforcement or a Range Safety Officer? If so, they can observe you while shooting and fill out the form. If you really want to do so, do so sooner rather than later. When I first found the CMP they had both garands and carbines. I thought to myself...

Do check out the CMP (http://www.thecmp.org/), and do it soon. It wasn't that long ago that I started collecting milsurps. When I first started the CMP also had M1 Carbines. Now they are gone except for the few that they auction off. Garands are going quick. If, after checking out the CMP, you...

Tell us a bit more. What type of competitions? Any particular time periods of history you are interested in? Any particular nations? Bolt action, semi-auto, or does it matter? For your first, I'd get the one that calls to you. Wait, that advice applies to all of them, not just your first...
