I was bringing my duaghter back from Birmingham where she was visiting her mother. ON the whole, I’d rather have been shooting.

These are some great excuses. I’m filing them away for future reference. But sorry, Michael Silence’s is the best.

super accurate CZ 9mm… did I leave my locker unlocked?

I’d have been there, but I knew I’d be in NashVegas today so I never promised I would.

I was planning to come but at the very last minute I swear an alien spacecraft landed in the field across the street and they looked confused because there weren’t any crops yet to make circles in and so when they came to the door to ask about it I got caught up in a conversation about…

Oh nevermind. I live far away and wasn’t planning on coming to begin with. I hope you had fun anyway.

Personally? I was at a full auto shoot on Saturday which the more stalwart of us still held despite a rather drenching and constant rainstorm (the person who designed the EZ Up needs to be sainted.) The good part about the rain is that we could hose tracer and incendiary ammo around without worrying about the fire hazard (the local fire company stages a truck there for a small donation and the Lions Club sets up a stand to serve food…pretty cool actually) although it did make getting the vehicles we were shooting to burn a bit more difficult.

Yesterday was spent scouting out a 200+ acre location here in PA which may become a dedicated full auto range and subgun match course. Other weapons will be allowed, of course, but so many ranges will not allow Class III weapons that the prospect of a range which basically caters to Class III as it’s primary purpose within a reasonably short drive is fantastic. We’re going to do a small, private subgun match there next month to get a better feel for what would be the lower range (which would mostly be pistol caliber shooting and 100 yard target ranges) and probably we’ll go look a bit closer at the upper range which would be developed towards the firing of larger caliber weapons and beltfeds.

So, I think I did my part to support the gun community…hope you guys had a great time though, we sure did despite the crappy weather!

I was there!

Thanks again for letting me shoot the AR. Now I KNOW what I am going to do with my unfinished lower…

Well, I was going to type all about it this morning, but Blogger is fUxx0red.

Sigh.

Off to work.

(It’s really hard to fake like I hate going to work, you know. )

Sorry, Uncle. Our landscaper dude came over and we were going over his spring schemes for the yard. When I looked up, it was already after 5. Time just got away from me …

Received an email at midnight Saturday alerting to a must attend meeting else child would not get to sleep over at the zoo. We discussed Cathy going by herself but we couldn't work out childcare and transportation issues in time. Hell or high water on the next one!

My apologies, Unc.

I got tied up doing things around the house with my (new) wife, and wasn’t able to get out the door in time.

I loaded up my WMDs , but it was already 5:00 p.m. and I am 30 minutes away, so I decided I would be too late to do some serious shooting.
