Title: LTR Loaner for this coming weekend (7-31-2010)
Post by: Mr.Fancypants on July 26, 2010, 11:47:31 AM
I am bringing 2 new Appleseeder's with me to this shoot that have access to a varying degree of .22's. For all I know neither of them can get one that has a detachable magazine. I have encouraged both of them to post on here, but neither have, so it is getting down to the wire and I decided I might post for them.

They both have larger center-fire rifles, but ammunition is expensive. I am a 1st time Appleseeder myself, but was able to put together my own LTR.

Of course, as par for courtesy, we will supply ammunition and return rifles cleaned and lubed to the owners satisfaction.

    Mr. FP, in case no one else responds, there's usually at least a few loaners available, at nearly every Appleseed.

Have them bring the .22's that they have. If they are a problem we will work something out. If they are tube fed, pick up some straws from McDonalds and we will show you how to make a simple speed loader. We can also rig slings, etc.


I imagine that we will have some loaners available.

Jim, that straw trick sounds like a great idea.

Also... I guess I forgot to mention that we are going to the Ramseur shoot.

**Edit**

Just noticed your alias is jmdavis, and not "jimdavis" I guess my mind just filled in the missing vowel to make up your first name.

No problem. It happens all the time.  ;D

I will be the shoot boss at Ramseur this weekend. I look forward to meeting you.

Out of curiosity, what time can we expect to be done on both days? I only ask because we have family in the area, and are coming in from out of town, might be nice to catch up with them at some point.
