Yes hopefully. I would like a piece of this action and so would my carbine that I built. Hopefully money doesnt get too tight to do this.

I vote for June. Heat doesn't bother me, it's the humidity. Does SC get humid at all during June? :?:
Thanks Anianna!

Although, I think this class is going to be in St. Louis (don't worry, it will still be humid)

Huh? What? I thought this class was going to be near fort lost in the woods or somewhere like that? I read something about middle of no where, forrest, and 800 yards and I started to get giddy. Where/when/how? Details people!

The range that we are going to use is three hours from St. Louis. Where you got SC from I have no fucking clue.

So this class might be in one state or another one, or maybe another reality. And it might be a two day re-start, or a building on the previous classes, or a repeat of the last two classes, or counting to potato. It might be in May, or June, but mostly likely in 2012-ish.

Just making sure I got the facts straight.


Oh, and if we're talking a June class remember the frequency of June birthdays, anniversaries, June weddings, school getting out and family vacations. It sucks to try to plan shit in June.

Dude, don't we have like a B-TEAM for that? I mean, I am sure it could be done with Brian, Holly, and Kevin there. I'm sure Barnhart won't be going to MILCOPP as well.

In the beginning of threads like this people spitball all sorts of shit. Some of these ideas are along the lines of "we should make it a bullpup-glock-carbine-conversions only class" are just ridiculous and should (and will) be ignored. Some of these ideas are off-the-wall but potentially awesome, ie "We've got a range five miles from Braxton's family's land that has a shoothouse!". If you don't open up the floor for discussion, you don't get the potential for some awesome class ideas. We're doing some planning behind the scenes to try to make the shoot house range idea turn into a reality :D . In the mean time, if you're getting anxious, ignore this thread for roughly the next week or so, I hope to have everything locked in by then. Once it is locked in, I'll edit the original post and we'll go from there...

Some of us would like to do both if possible. I don't think any of those people are B players, btw.

We'll see. Depending on what happens and how much manpower we need for the local event we may or not scrub it, so we dont have to bail out on someone we already committed to.

While our other three Chapter Officers could certainly run any of our events, we would of course prefer to be there ourselves if possible.

PS. I'm going to print this out and show brian holly and kevin, though, and let you explain yourself.

OK, but if you change your mind, it only takes me a few minutes to dig one.

I think he's just worried about what you might find buried in his lawn if you start digging... like a dead hooker or three.

No. Montana was never mentioned in this thread. Next person to throw out a ridiculous location that has not been mentioned already in such a manner as to suggest that it has been mentioned gets scorpions in their boots. Y'all have been warned. Besides, who needs montana when the range in discussion already has a 800 yard range? I don't think anyone is planning to show up to this with a .50 cal AR upper with 20x glass (and while watching them in the shoot-house trying to run that would be hilarious, I'm guessing it's a NO-GO), and in any event this is not a long range rifle class.

Greg you are right, I just misread the state abbreviation MO as Montana not Missouri.

So what weekend are we talking here? Time to pick one. We have other ranges and commitments we'd like to start setting up schedules with and do not want to have a class scheduled that would overlap and nix this. While it is only February, trust me, this stuff comes up faster than anticipated.
