Hi! I am Biscuit (James), and I will be moving out to Edgar Springs, Mo the 29th of September. I just scored Rifleman this last weekend out at the Glen Helen Appleseed in Ca. I have been going to seeds as best I can for roughly 2 1/2 years. I hope to meet you guys some time soon.
MAN do I HATE some of my nicknames.

shot the score on Sept. 26th, 2010.
Started in 2008/09. Total events attend as a shooter: TOO MANY!!!!

Biscuit,

Congratulations on the Rifleman patch! O0  I am sure the Mo crew will appreciate having you on board. They are a great bunch of folks! Maybe you could make it over to the RBC Oct 17-25 in Osage Beach, if you are settled by then. You will definitely meet a great core of the Midwest instructors if would fit your schedule.

Hopefully we will meet on the trail one day as well. Stay strong and keep the Faith
In His Grip,

Welcome to MO Biscuit!

Edgar Springs puts you an hour and a half from our Osage Beach range, two and a half from Humansville, and two hours from De Soto.  Right in the thick of things :)

Check the schedule... we have several shoots remaining at these locations this fall.  Come on out!

I hope to get the chance to meet you soon, and Congrats on that Rifleman patch!

Now this is what I call an Appleseed national family: You need to move?  One of the first things you do is look for fellow seeders in your new location!  It wouldn't have been so easy a few years ago.  Nice.

Good luck, James!  Have fun out there.

You'll be back eventually.  Look us up when you can.

Thanks Rocket man, and asminuteman for everything.
Also asmintueman is right in with the fact that I am a War between the States re-enactor. HOWEVER since I am moving I will be giving up my rank :'(. YEA! No more Morning reports  ;D...

I was wondering who is in the area of Rolla?
I would like to know, simply because I would like to attempt to make the next Appleseed.
I do not know IF I will have a vehicle , so IF someone is willing to give an IIT0 a ride, I would be in their debt.

Ah, another CW guy.  We got one of those...  Rebel Yell is an artillery boy.  I'm sure he would be happy to tell you all the goings on in MO on that front.

I'm sure we will find a way to get you to some shoots.  We need all the help we can get!

See you on the line...

Yep,

Our "Biscuit" got all grow'd up, & graduated finally....now he's off to college......
His heads kinda lop-sided, but that was just from 2 yrs worth of clown batting...... ::) &)  $$-0 @)
Take care of him well, Big MO, he deserves it...... 8)

And it's ok to remind him from time to time that real rifles don't use caps........ **) **) **) :))

Be well Bisckie, you will be missed out here...... :'(

Biscuit,

OK, I KNOW where Edgar Springs is, which begs the question, " What in *ell are you doing there?" I have good friends close to there, and would be happy to hook you up. The Oct. Osage Beach RBC and Appleseed is going to be awesome, as usual, and we would love to see you. It's about  1.25 hrs from E.S. We can help you out if you need anything. Let us know.

The Appleseed family is everywhere.

Biscuit?  Nah, more like Hard Tack.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!  Well done- diligent perseverence rewards a Rifleman.

I'd like to have seen you earn that patch. 

Farewell to you and your 1853 Enfield; enjoy the most excellent MO gun laws while we catch up CA laws- and the Ca electorate- to Liberty's standard.   

James, you are a young man who 'knows very well what he is about.'

Shoot straight and often.
