NWI INGO General Post - Part 8

@ bradmedic


I got a lee single stage press, works fine for me. I found powder up at kempfs in Michigan city.

+1 for Kempfs. I have found some components I needed for a decent price.

 

[Ericpwp]

It sounds like there's justification for a trip to Michigan City, though. Except, I would have to drop the wife off at the outlet mall.

 

[t_star]

I saw the WTB, and through out the price of 100 bones. There's just no justification for me to make the trip.

Sure there is. Dinner at Ale Emporium. Heck, I might be willing to take the trip just for that! Say good-bye to that hundo from the gun tho.

 

[Ericpwp]

Right, I would come home with one less gun, and nothing else to buy a new gun with.

The infamous Hi-point!

We need to have a NWI INGO swap meet.

This is fun. Can't wait to turn on the porch light tonight, see about some moths that been hanging around these parts.

Does anyone know if it is legal to sell an Illinois resident gun parts (AR Slide Fire stock)? I think that I'll be ok, as long as they have a FOID card. What say you?

 

[bigretic]

not sure why, but I picked up an 870 12 from an old guy the other day. anyone have any take off stocks laying around? now I'm kicking myself for giving the last set I had away...

 

[cyprant]

So I was able to shoot my AR for the fist time and just curious about my group I shot from 100 yards. I had noting to shoot from at the farm as far as a rest goes, so I sat Indian style and shot 5 rounds and managed a 5" group with a 3x9 scope set to 6 or 7 power. I was actually surprised the were all on my target after seeing the crosshairs float all over the place...

What's a respectable group at this distance and set up? I want to do an Appleseed very badly and am also wondering what a "rifleman" group would be at 100 yards??

I know 5 shots is not a real measure of a rifle or a shooter, but I only had 60 rounds and my wife was shooting with me...

 

[bradmedic04]

Welp I drove in the winning run in the first game, bloodied myself sliding in. We had one guy dislocate his shoulder diving for a catch.

I thought this was going to be a friendly tourney but these people are not messing around.

The infamous Hi-point!

You are selling your .45 ACP Hi-Point.
oh now you won't be a true thug no more! I knew this would happen once you got married.

PM Wild Deuce about Project Appleseed.
I do have Project Appleseed targets that you can gauge what a grouping of 5 shots at 100 yards would have to look like.
Based on your image and not knowing how big your target it I am going to say you won't get a patch but be a level I candidate.

Level I is the lowest, Level II is middle and Level III gets you a patch.

Operative word is PARTS.

It is legal to sell PARTS across the state line, as long as they are not parts that required a transfer for the original purchase.

So YES.

2015 Meet & Shoot Schedule

Mark your calendars boys and girls because Season 6 of the NWI INGO Meet & Shoots is going to be a bit different.
With 5 years worth of voting data now on INGO I have managed to look at the prior years in terms of what days we picked and based on that have select the 2015 dates! This will help:
- me cut down on the number of PMs I have to send
- allow those with limit vacation dates to pick way in advance which ones they want to attend
- remove the voting post and then the official post for each event

As this year comes closer to an end I'll post the 2015 NWI EVENTS in the NWI INGO social channel.
This is just a preview of what is to come.

SUN, 22 MAR
SAT, 25 APR
SUN, 24 MAY
SAT, 20 JUN - YOUTH/FAMILY Day @ Winamac (Need to confirm with DNR still)
SAT, TBD when mods can come up

Here is the data I used

Sounds good Jedi. Not many people vote usually anyway.

Did you make sure not to pick any holidays?

Only one is meorial day which is a Monday and we meet the Sunday before

 

[dyerwatcher]

I get to scratch one off the list.

Please don't let anyone stick this one down their pants.

 

[bradmedic04]

Well let's see. I fired Dave Otto from third base coach after telling him he was doing a "****ty job" before we lost the semifinal game.

What a blast...

I thought, once you're in, you're in 4 life?
