Slackers.

Dammit, if I didn't just find out I'm getting laid off I would be all over this! [Bang]

Excellent class.

This was my first training class of any kind with Magpul Dynamics. I was very impressed. They will be getting more of my $$$ thats for sure.

Thanks to Jeff for setting it all up.

And congrats to Mick-Boy for the great job shooting. Without a doubt the LaRue OBR is a very accurate rifle in the hands of a skilled shooter.

Any pics from the class?

Who knows if Jeff will post any. After all the keyboard commandos started jumping all over him in the Pat Rogers thread for what they deemed unsafe photography, I would not blame him if he never posted another pic of anything.

Crap like that makes us look like Glock Talk or barf.com

awww... I wasn't being a commando was I? I apologize if I did. (sarcasm on) It's not my fault I can shoot the wings off a flea with one hand behind my back and my eyes blindfolded... and did I mention the flea was around the corner in a hurricane? (sarcasm off)

Oh well, maybe we'll see some pics some other time.

I'd like to do a course like this, but I'm afraid I'm not even to "beginner" in the long range rifle game yet.

Hey man, I was practically brand new to long range, and I still learned a ton. Like maybe next time I'll make sure the mag on my 700 actually works before showing up to class... oh well, I guess it's just one more reason to swap out the stock for something with removable mags. Or maybe save for an OBR... Costa's stick was really smooth.

It was my first class with Magpul too, and I was also really impressed. Thanks again Jeff for setting us up, and thanks Hoser for letting us put some dents in your steel.

I really want to go, please keep us posted when the next one is scheduled.

In my humble opinion, if you are brand new to long range rifle you can go a LONG ways toward improving your skill level by getting involved in NRA Smallbore and/or NRA Highpower competition.

It might not be supercool-ninja-tactical, but fundamentals are fundamentals.
