DFW Get-Together May 14th was a blast! Thanks all!

[Hoi Polloi]

Just look for the group wearing CHL badges. One lady will be wearing a CHL tiara....can't miss em

Are you laughing at my tiara?

I counted restaurant votes and I thought at first we had a tie, but I realized I missed one vote. It's 2 for The Cellar (Griffen, Pnctar), 1 for the defunct Texas Bar & Grill (Excaliber), and 4 for Mercado Juarez (C-dub, Geekwagun, Paw-Paw, Rexinthecity). Mercado Juarez it is!

[Hoi Polloi]

What are the odds that the dates to vote on are a copy of my class schedule?

So are you going?

I voted for 04/30.

Are you unable to go next week then?

I'm in for sure this time. I'd probably bring 1-2 people with me.

How's the count looking, Rex?

Voted for everything except Apr 29. Pretty sure that's Larry Joe Taylor week/weekend.

I have no preference on dates, I will work around what ever one is set.
There will be at least 2 shooter and maybe an extra.

Look forward to it the last one was a lot of fun.

It was fun and I'm excited about next week! Do you have a better idea of your head count?

I'm pretty much open on date. I plan to attend unless something comes up. Thanks for heading this up.

Are ya coming, Donnie?

Hoi, I'll be there, and I'm working on the other half. One condition though. You have to let her shoot your new gun.

Is your better half coming?

Add me to the count for the range and restaurant.

I'll be there for both. I might bring another shooter.

Do I get you all to myself or am I sharing you with another shooter?

Thanks Hoi!

I'll be there by myself and just me at the restaurant.
Happy Trails! N

Did you see that guy up there laughing at my tiara? We're gonna have to sit beside him and tell him what for!

Thanks Hoi...

I'll be there and bringing my stepson. He's interested in getting his CHL, and has been trying out different firearms as he decides what his first purchase will be.

Awesome!

I'm in for the restaurant as well, most likely +1.

Still most likely +1?

So I guess that I missed it, the location is Elm Fork?

Are you coming? I thought you could only go on one of the dates not chosen. So glad you are stooping to my level and going to a public range with its rules and all.

I'd love to make the trip up from Austin if y'all don't mind a complete forum n00b tagging along...

Still coming? I hope so!

I plan on going. As long as I am not out of town

So, are you gonna be there?

Wish I can make it...I may be out of the country for work....

I hope you can come to the range so we can get you covered in gun powder before you have to go through the airport!

If I have the boys again that weekend, I know they'll want to go. They haven't shot the Mosin yet, and have been pestering me....

Are the boys coming?

[lonewolf]

They really want to. Its my weekend with them, so we should make it. It'll be a good test of public behavior around civilized adults again. They did really well last time, IMHO. They've been wearing me out abuot shooting the Mosin. I'll have the old "how to be a man" lecture and follow-up reinforcement of gun safety on Friday evening with them. One of my neighbors has expressed some interest in accompanying us, so there may be one or two additional guests along. We'll see how it goes. My wife said she would really like to come but has to work at her second job that day, so unless something changes, her pink .380 may not see much use......

As always, really looking forward to the shooting and the company!

I see a thread where our friends in San Antonio/Austin are trying to have a get together. I hope they have as good a time as we do!

[Pawpaw]

I'll be there for both. I might bring another shooter.

It looks like I'm all yours! I asked a couple of other people, but they have plans. I already removed my "might" from the poll.

[rexinthecity]

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

Thanks for thinking of me Hoi, I will definitely be there for both
I can't wait to meet y'all in person.
If anybody saw something in the list that I posted earlier let me know and I'll be sure to bring it.
I voted possible +1, but he told me that he registered and voted that he would be there, haven't seen a post from him though. Don are you out there?
It is 10:00 at the range, right?

[The Annoyed Man]

I'll have the old "how to be a man" lecture...

Is that the one that follows a butt-whoopin' and a cold piece of ribeye steak applied to the swollen eye?

If there's a bad word in either of these, I apologize.

[lonewolf]

Pretty much all of the above. I'm a big fan of the movie myself. Kids these days have a lot to learn about what responsibility and accountability really are. My advice to young men is pretty concise:

1. Never marry a woman you think you can live with. Marry the one you know you can't live without.

2. Make your mistakes. We all have (and still do..) Learn from them, don't repeat them, and carry on.

3. Take responsibility for both what you do and what you don't do. Actions and inactions have consequences that must be faced. One way or another.

4. Anytime you point a finger at someone else, there are several more fingers pointing right back at you.

5. If you want to be treated with respect and as an adult, then you had better act like one.

The list kinda goes on and on, and may vary as circumstances require it.

Maybe I'm a little old fashioned.......

P.S.--I don't recall there being a bad word anywhere in the movie.....

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?

If I can convince my friend to stick around for it I'll be there.

Looking Forward to it - me and one other registered guest - -

I didn't see this thread until today. Is it too late to sign up? If not, I'll try to come and bring a few friends with me.

Not too late at all! Let me know a restaurant count when you can, please.

I'm going to pull together the recommended list of supplies, the schedule, addresses, etc all in one place in the next couple days. It's all here, but dotted throughout.

As a matter of fact, everyone please let me know your restaurant count (definite, probable, maybe) so I can call Mercado Juarez with it this week.

We really had a great time being able to sit down and chat with each other last time and I'm looking forward to it again.
