Stevo Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 CANCELLED: Sunday September 18th, 2016 10:00AM @ Colliers Mills WMA Range OK well I started this on the other site and got a pretty good response so it's being renamed and posted up here also. I am going to have a GTG for the kids at Colliers Mills. Rim Fire Day were we will be teaching them how to use a Shooting Range. I will have a few .22 rifles and kids can bring their own if they want to. Rim Fire only. I have one volunteer who is a NRA certified instructor who will be there. I have the tables, targets, .22 ammo, and a few rifles. I will bring Hot Dogs and Burgers too. I will need at least 3 more volunteers to help with the kids on the firing line. The idea of this outing is to teach them the proper rules and use of an outdoor range. Should be a lot of fun for everyone. If it works out like I am hoping the next outing will be on the proper mechanics of Rifle Shooting. Breathing, trigger pull, etc. And then maybe we will take them to a center fire range. Kick it around a bit. What do you all think? 3Blade, LPJR, Rusty and 4 others 7 Sent from my flip phone with the big buttons so I can see them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haskell_Hunter Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 I like the idea. When are you planning to host this? Sapere aude. Audeamus. When you cannot measure, your knowledge is meager and unsatisfactory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leo801 Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 I'll help out if you don't pick a day that I have range duty at home. Any dates in mind? Rusty 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tarhunt Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 As long as my son doesn't have a baseball game then, we should be there. Rusty 1 "The Nation Which Forgets Its Defenders, Will Itself Be Forgotten". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo Posted August 22, 2016 Author Share Posted August 22, 2016 I wanted to see if there was an interest before thinking about a date. Wow there is an interest lol. What do you guys think is better Saturday or Sunday? I was thinking the 3rd weekend in September. The opener is the last weekend right?

allmann Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 opener is the 10th on the second weekend. As long as I am not working I will help run the line. Rusty 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haskell_Hunter Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Sept 24 is youth day, so that weekend is probably bad. Sapere aude. Audeamus. When you cannot measure, your knowledge is meager and unsatisfactory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo Posted August 24, 2016 Author Share Posted August 24, 2016 OK I am just trying to avoid a very hot day. I can go anytime so why don't you guys pick a date. Sent from my flip phone with the big buttons so I can see them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buck154 Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 I may come over and help depending on the day. I'm only 10 minutes away from there. Rusty 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haskell_Hunter Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 I could do the 9/17. I have a Ruger 10/22 I can bring and a "bucket of bullets". Let me know if you need anything else.

BowhunterNJ Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 I too have a Ruger 10/22 that I can bring, as well as one of those metal rotation targets to set out. I'll see what I can do to stock up on some ammo, I only have a couple hundred rounds right now. Agreed to prob avoid the following dates: - 9/10 (Opening Day) - 9/24 (Youth Day) Rusty 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
