time to make a run for some FOSTERS.....i've got ya covered tony!!!....don't worry bob, i'll have some of that "brown stuff" you like too..!!!...i ain't much good at alot of things but i do know how to supply my buddies with refreshments..!!! :emoticon:  8)....ps...timmy, you gotta learn to say "g'day mate" and then we'll give you a fosters.!!!!!
: Professor Meat-Hook....
: Bhawanna October 29, 2009, 01:49:25 PM
is he going to the fun-shoot ?....haven't heard anything from him.... :o
: RE: Me "Aussie" buddy is coming..!
: longislandhunter October 29, 2009, 01:52:00 PM
Roger.... sorry for the late response but I just got home a few minutes ago from a quick trip to my summer place up in the mountains to shut down and winterize the place  .... anyway, thank you for offering to meet me and let me follow you to the shoot.... that was really nice of you and I appreciate the offer greatly  :)

Gene,,,, thanks to you and Bob also for offering to let me come down by you guys and finish the journey with you.... that offer was greatly appreciated also  :)

However.....  my wife reminded me that we are already booked for 2 events, one on Friday the 6th and one of Saturday the 7th, that we already bought tickets to,,, so,,,, "murphy's law" once again rears its ugly head and has screwed up my plans to attend another S.C. shoot   :(  

I'm really bummed out by this,,, I really wanted to make this one....  I was so excited about making this shoot that I completely forgot about these other 2 events that were already on the calender.  Problem was my wife wrote them down on her calender but I never wrote them down on mine.....  My wife told me I could go on Sunday but of course there's just not enough time.  The Ducks Unlimited Dinner/Dance we're attending on Saturday night won't be over until around midnight and with a 12-14 hour driving time to the shoot there's just no way I can make it there in time on Sunday...   :(

Anyway, I will be with you guys/gals in spirit.  Please drink a beer and shoot a bullseye for me guys.  

Jeff

: Bhawanna October 29, 2009, 02:01:58 PM

: RE: jeff.....
: longislandhunter October 29, 2009, 02:10:41 PM
Roger,,,, I could video me dancin and post it...... but I don't really think I want that many people laughing at me all at one time   :D

I guess what we're gonna have to do is set up for reservations about a year in advance for Jeff.....lol... Anyhow... sure was hoping you could make it but maybe the next time.

Just thought of something.... maybe we could have one at your place and you would be sure to be there. :p  :p  :p

I plan to be there for Saturday only (darn it). I plan to bring a .177 Lightning XL and a CAR78a .22 that I just got from Archer. I would bring my .177 Disco, but I like to restrict pumping in the house here where the humidity is low(ered). If someone will have air to share, I'll bring it. I'll pm for a good GPS address. i know how to get to the island from here via hwy 61 joining into hwy17.
: maybe a low-country boil?
: Bhawanna November 01, 2009, 02:06:12 AM

Well, well, was just getting ready to ask when the next one wuz when lo and behold, here 'tis, already rolling toward the fun zone.

My thoughts were, and don't want to offend anyone, knowing how little things can add up, maybe a small cover charge for grill gas and the other extraneous, miscellaneous things that hosts cover may be a nice jesture..................as I said, being new, not wanting to offend.

So, if I were rich and famous instead of sooooooo good lookin', I'd have had one of those Meister Grade Annies that recently went down on Target talk.  That first one had me absolutely in heat, lust and LOVE all in one shot.

Have an Izzy cornered but waiting to amass enough fund$.

I'll PM you Timmy with a few questions.

Tom

I either PM'd or E'd Timmy but no reply......must be a cyberspace thing.  Are .22 rimfires allowed?  I have a bench gun and position rifle that could use some exercise.........

Had a real SHOOTER show up at the range tonight.  He looked like he knew his way around.  Found out he PCS'd in from Quantico.  Talk about shoot!!!!?????  He is double Distinguished.  Man, what a shot.  He may come with me Sat.  Really hope so as it would be a real treat to watch him with either rifle or pistol.  We shot and gabbed a good portion of the evening.  I mostly listened.  I told him there would be some nice 10 M. rifles in attendance.  He mentioned wanting to go triple Distinguished.......He could do it w/o breaking a sweat.  Oh yeah, he's young and ripped.  So  Bwahanna and I will be eating our hearts out..............should we be so inclined.............Ahhh, memories, eh Perfesser?

: Gene_SC November 05, 2009, 03:24:21 PM
Nopowder burnersplease.
: RE: Charleston SC. FUN SHOOT!!!! :)
: CharlieDaTuna November 06, 2009, 01:32:03 AM
I agree with Gene. This is an airgun fun shoot.
: RE: Charleston SC. FUN SHOOT!!!! :)
: TCups November 06, 2009, 02:27:23 AM
Understood.

BTW, do the big boomers J shoots, (much louder than any of my rimfires with sub-sonic ammo), bother you, too?  Just asking.

Let's be clear, though. The last two times our host, Timmy, held a "Fun Shoot, he said it was OK and had even specifically asked me to bring the powder burners along.  And I was happy to have a nice range facility where I could stretch out to 100 yards or longer.  But to be sure, I don't ever want to do something that makes one of Timmy's Fun Shoot anything but an absolute good time for everyone there, especially you, Gene.  So no more powder burners at (Air Rifle) Fun Shoots.  Let's keep it fun for everyone.  Thanks for saying something up front.
