    I'd love to come again, but I have a clinical scheduled from 1500-2300 at the ER. I had my dates written down wrong, and had last weekend off instead... my own stupid fault for not double checking all three of my calendars.
    Have fun guys!

    Bill, we missed you!

    Another beautiful day for fellowship and trigger time. Only three of us there, but we made excellent use of the day.

    Broke out the 10/22 only after using my allotment of 223. Time to hit the reloading bench again!

    :dunno:Rats, still shoot better with the 10/22 :dunno:

    WOW! It's been a long time since the last mini - 3 months to be exact. With three full seeds at the range we have been busy.

    July 24 is the next mini at Cloverdale. PM if you are planning to attend.

    Anyone else? Week an a half to go. Have room for 9 shooters this time around and only have 4 signed up.

    Come enjoy time with fellow Americans, learn true stories of our nation's History, and practice the fundamentals of rifle marksmanship.

    Dave

    PS: If you are ready for the full deal ..............sign up for the weekend at Riley (24/25). You will not be disappointed!

    Weather isn't too predictable, but right now is showing mostly sunny and hot, in the 90's.

    If you have a pop up cover feel free to bring it as I do not have a covered firing line. Bring plenty of water, sun screen, and any snacks/lunch you want, etc.

    Plan to make a full day of it (0900 - 1630), as long as everyone stays hydrated and alert.

    We will learn/practice the skills of the Rifleman and learn the history of April 19th, 1775 - our history as Americans. Whether native born or naturalized, we share this history as citizens. The history of the founding of OUR Nation.

    Come out and join us, there is room on the firing line for you

    Have five signed up now. PM me for a slot on the line.

    PS: Cost only $10 for all the sunshine you can get. (Please be advised, we will not charge you extra if it is liquid sunshine!)

    I just talked my buddy Steve into coming, he will be there as well.

    so sign him up for a spot.

    He does not have a GI sling tho, is there any chance someone might have an extra we could borrow?

    We now have some cover for at least part of the line. It will be a hot one, but some shade will help. :rockwoot:

    You were there in spirit, unforgiven. DaveD mentioned how much you supported the minis when you lived in the area - maybe you happened to be shooting at the same time he was talking about you. ;)

    It turned out to be a great day. I was worried about the heat, but DaveD paced the day well and the breeze was a lifesaver! Good shooting, good history, good people - how could it get better?

    By shooting some steel afterwards. :D That was fun! Thanks, DaveD!

    Hope to see you all at a full 'seed soon! Dom, thanks for bringing your canopy to help cover the line; Steve, you're sooo close, so we'll expect to see you back soon!; Doug, thanks for hanging out with me behind the line and I hope you feel up to more shooting some time; Eric, you made some great improvements today so I hope to see you back soon! It was great meeting all of you!
