Re: DFW Get-Together May 14th was a blast! Thanks all!
After the next couple weekends I'm going to be free. If you would be interested in going sometime with me and Caleb send me a PM.pnctar wrote:First of all ... a BIG thank you! to Hoi Polloi for putting this together. It was really great to meet some of the people we talk to everyday, online. What a great group of people!! I shot way to fast in the morning and gave up my station but, I sure enjoyed looking at what everyone had, helping one of our newer folks and shooting a few of the guns that I was interested in. TAM and Pawpaw are going to cost me about a grand I love those Kimber's.
I also want to personally thank AndyC for his time and mentorship out on the skeet range. I'm that guy that doubled my score from the first to second round and now ... I'm really in trouble that was addicting and I love my new O/U (first rounds through it). Soon as I find a friend to go out with me those "skeet" are really gonna be in trouble

Re: Let's Party! DFW Get-Together May 14th (Taking headcount
We definitely need to permanently add skeet as part of the get-together! We had a group of 10 out on the skeet field until 6:15. Andy coached us all through the first round which helped a ton. The second round saw a lot of improvement with just about everyone. If I remember correctly, one guy improved by 10 points in the second round. It was a ton of fun and I recommend that everyone tries it at some point. Just remember to bring sunblock! I got home and looked like a tomato

Re: Let's Party! DFW Get-Together May 14th (Taking headcount
Both, I'll try and get more definite answers for the the last two over the next couple days.Hoi Polloi wrote:rexinthecity wrote:Ok, latest update on my headcount. It's me +2 definitely going, +1 likely going, +1 might go.
Is this to the restaurant? Range? Or both?
On another note, can anyone bring a Kel-Tec PF9 that I can try out?

If I can convince my friend to stick around for it I'll be there.Griffen wrote:I spoke with my son today and he's interested in Andy's offer for some skeet shooting learning. He'll be out there as a future CHL holder, and figured why not hang out for some shotgun lessons while he's at it, if the offer is still open. Is there anyone else going to hang out for sheet lessons after lunch?

I have at least one friend coming with me. I'm still waiting on decisions from two people.

Re: Let's Party! DFW Get-Together May 14th (Taking headcount
I'll be bringing an XDM 4.5" 9mm, XDM Compact 9mm, RIA 1911 GI Series .45, and a S&W 22A. If my friend comes he will be bringing a Walther PPS .40 and a Glock 19. If anyone wants to shoot these I expect I'll have plenty of ammo with me but feel free to bring your own or donate ;)
I'm also thinking about bringing my Mosin out since I don't shoot it much (I'm terrible with iron sights). I have a ton of cheap surplus ammo for it so anyone can shoot it as much as they want.
As far as restaurants go, it's hard to go wrong with mexican.
Is anyone thinking about doing some skeet shooting? I have a Remington 970 Wingmaster that I never get a chance to take out and I could use pointers/practice.

Re: Let's Party! DFW Get-Together May 14th (Taking headcount
Great idea about the ammo. I just got a 1911 and buying .45 ammo puts a big old hole in my pocketHoi Polloi wrote:Mercado Juarez now has a competitor!Griffen wrote:Mecardo Juarez is a good restaraunt and close by, but I'd also like to suggest another possible venue for consideration. The Texas Bar and Grill is located on Las Colinas Blvd, just off Hwy 114, and has an outdoor seating area along the banks of the mighty Las Colinas canal. (Yes, there is similarity to San Antonio riverwalk) Its got a decent lunch menu - as we used to go there fairly often when I used to work along the canal a couple of years ago. I offer that for those that may choose an alternate to Mexican food. I don't believe they are 30.06 posted as I recall. Thanks.
What do the rest of ya think?
While I'm asking your opinion: What do you think of the idea that I bring some solo cups and we can make donations to members whose bullets we use? They can just be placed at each lane. We can all bring some quarters and dollars. I believe most bullets work out to be about 10 cents to a $1 a piece (most being in the 25-60c range), depending on if they were reloaded or new, brand, quality, caliber, etc. Some people were very generous last year and let many try their rarer guns and I'm thinking it would be nice to have a way to take responsibility for some of the costs we incur, especially since we're setting aside specific time to help others this range day.

I'm in for the restaurant as well, most likely +1.
I'm bringing an XDM 4.5 (9mm), XDM compact (9mm), RIA 1911 (.45), and maybe a Mosin. If anyone is interested in trying them out just let me know.

Re: DFW Spring 2011 Get-Together
I'm in for sure this time. I'd probably bring 1-2 people with me.
