Who else?

My gun guru has a Remington Model 41 Targetmaster he is trying sell.

It's not worth it to post it nationally because the shipping and transfer fees would be too expensive for this sort of gun.

Full disclosure: this is an adult sized gun. Cutting it down might be a sin because it is somewhat collectible. It also operates like a Cricket where you have to pull a cocking knob to ready it for firing. That is primarily why he is selling it; because the kids who come to our firearm safety classes have a hard time operating it.

He's asking $75 firm.

If I don't know you, I'd like to see your current MN Permit to Purchase or Permit to Carry.

I'm starting this thread in an effort to rid our board of clutter.
(If I've got the capabilities... )
Don't be offended if you find your posts in here.
I'm don't want to erase anything; I just want to keep the main sections current/relevant.

How many of you find yourself at the polls, on the first Tuesday in November, faced with the difficult position on which canidate to vote for? How many amongst you, find that you're stuck voting for the lesser of the two evils? Well, why is that? Is it because you didn...'t vote in the primary elections? Minnesota primaries are today!
Go vote! I believe polls close at 20:00, so you still have time.
Voting in the primaries is great because you have the opportunity to vote for the lesser of three(often more) evils!

OK, we've been given the green light. There will be a a table for us at the ZVAC show at the Fairgrounds. KMK and I will be there for set-up Friday evening. Doors open to the public at 9:00 am Sat.

Dragonfly has borrower his AS banner for us to use. (Thanks DF!) We'll also have brochures, handouts, and some targets to give away. A future Appleseed notification sign-up sheet will also qualify folks for a few door prizes. A couple LTRs and an M1 for show. We're going to try to have a video slideshow on a laptop if our table location has access to electricity.

               

We need some volunteers to hang out at the table and talk to shooters. If you have some time this weekend, please respond here or send a PM to KMK, AFTERMATH, or vmt193 and let us know.

I may try to make it down for some of sunday. I work saturday, so that is definitely a no go. I will re-update with a more solid up or down plan.

I can be there Saturday morning for a couple hours. That's usually the busiest time at the show.

   Hi everyone,,, we have a shoot scheduled for October 16Th and 17Th at Niagara Wisconsin and still don't have any instructors signed up. Niagara is near Iron Mountain Michigan and is a private range owned by Bedford. Dragonfly and I were there earlier this year and had very enthusiastic students for both the marksmanship and history. I haven't seen the sign-up sheets yet but it appears this event will be sold out for Saturday. Soooo,,,,,if you can only make it for Saturday, it would be appreciated but the whole weekend would be great.
   The range is already set-up and Bedford's hospitality is hard to beat. Can you give us a hand?
   Thanks
    Martin

 I just talked to Martin on this one...AND I see there are 26 views on the subject. Martin NEEDS some OH and RH to stretch a bit and give a hand for this shoot. He says last time there were 15 shooters and only he and DFly. Aftewards he thought they did not give proper attention to the shooters 'cos the ratio (Shooter to instructor) was way off. It would be better with at least 3 instructors. As you know the LB needs to focus on the line and not  instruction, so now you see the need for instructors.

This one is a big stretch for me right now, considering.

So I ask for AS sake, and to repay Wi. for manning our shoots while we get our state going...can someone step up and do Niagra with Martin and Jo ?

ANYONE???

I'll be driving the spear into Gordon, this weekend!
It would certainly be nice for some Minnesotans to guard my flank!

Besides!  You all failed the test on Sunday!  It's time to make up for it!

Drill weekend - otherwise I would 

I'll see if BrassBucket has any plans, but I have a sneaking suspicion she is on call all weekend...

Anyone HELP  .

Here goes; I'm not bowing, I'm begging  . Even just for Saturday  would be a big help.
