Won't be selling hot dogs but will be smoking ribs on the smoker for Saturday night. Also I don't rent my guns but I do like to share a mag or two among friends. When we get there Thursday and if we have cell service I will post up our positions.

Last year I shot an STG-44, a Sturmgewehr 44. Super-rare Nazi rifle from near the end of the war, basically where Kalashnikov got his ideas from. I'd only seen them in museums, and there was one on a "rent me" table. Saved one round for my collection, they're some oddball caliber. Too cool!

Oh yeah, an M2 carbine also. An M1 carbine with a select-fire happy switch.

Any report on the Shoot? Thursday used to be set-up day, and the week-end looks rough.
Not the first time. Bob McBride, who set it up years ago, always said: "We shoot, rain or shine"

Little cold and muddy but lots of targets. In spot 49 and 50 stop by and say hi.

Finally stopped raining fri night. Wind dried the mud on sat, but still had a busy day. Got to cap off the evening with a 250 rd PKM belt and a 100 rd tracer in the MG42. Sunday should be a nice day, come out and shoot some machine guns. But is does shut down at noon.

No kidding! Missed it last year because of the weather. I knew it would be a muddy mess and said screw it.
