If I'm not down at the cabin in WV I'll be there. I had a great time at the last gathering and enjoyed meeting some new faces.

If anyone has any requests for fireams feel free to ask!!

Many of us won't bring certain firearms unless somebody wants to try them out.

New shooters are always welcome.

Still A Go...

... for me!

After the NRA Action match in the AM at a local club, I'll be at the gathering.


DanV1317,

Still want to try out a Sig P229 in .357Sig? If so, I'll bring it along.


See everyone there!

No AK's at casa del 9mm.

How about a gaggle of 870's or .308's?

Yes it twas Mr.9mm.

I have 2 Bulgarian AK's now. Still debating on whether or not to sell my Mak90's and hold on to the Bulgarians.

Let's make this is a bolt action lever action shoot.

Bring your bolts and lever guns!!

I'd like to try something different for a change.

Anyone dressed as a cowboy will get a 1% discount on admission.


On a serious note... can you guys add this thread to your signatures so we can promote this gathering and bring in a load of PA TFL members? I'm not over here that much anymore, but it will be nice if you guys could bring in the high class clientele that TFL has.

Jamie,

My Bulgie is an Arsenal, Inc. SLR-101 SG . It started life as a milled receiver AK made to take single stack mags. Arsenal milled out the mag well to accept regular AK mags. Furniture is green K-Var plastic, with "NATO" length butt (I'd rather have the standard length butt stock b/c I'm short).

I have a PK-01V red dot mounted on it.

I bought it last Fall and still haven't shot it.

Sporting Clays are back and running on a limited schedule until June.
Went up today and busted 100 clays, sadly most of them on the ground.
The course is in OK shape. The path has been repaired but several of the wetter stations simply had a ton of mulch piled on top of the swampy ground.
There were several new throwers and we did not have many problems.
Best of all, Jamie's buddy, the zz-top guy is back and friendly as ever......
It looks like they're still putting a little money into the place.

I was actually up there a little over a week ago. I lectured him on his attitude towards new members and people I'm taken there. I told him he better be careful how he approaches people because he's been inconsitant and rude towards people I've introduced to the club.

The pistol range was fixed up because one of the neighbors got one to many bullets in their barn. Apparently their house and barn are about 800yds back and slightly to the left. They suspect the guys shooting rifles in the pistol range are bouncing bullets out of the pit and smacking the ladies barn 800yds back. I told them to raise the height of the berms a few months ago.

The pistol range is much nicer.


Please spread the word and try and brings some friends!!
