I did show up Sunday for a bit, long enough to see something I had to have. Oh well, I hear having a retirement fund is overrated anyway
-
Thanks to our friendly neighborhood hurricane, it was pretty slow. Mostly ended up being a bunch of old guys sitting around BSing and watching it rain. Oh well, we got out of the house, had a good time and made a few bucks. I'll probably do the next one just for fun.
-
I've got a few things I'd like to move. I think I'm gonna set up there. Feel free to stop by and say howdy.

Thanks Ken, guess I won't be there.

It's a quarterly swap meet that is held at MSSA, for MSSA members only (sadly). It runs all 3 days in the clubhouse but you have to be on premises if you have a gun there for sale. They have a couple dozen tables set up and it's 75% dusty old junk but occasionally something worthwhile can be spotted there. I usually forget about it until the last day when everything's already been picked over.
-
Need more info.
-
I'll put it on my calendar.
-
I might stop by. My issue is I cant stick around long enough to sell or trade what I have
-
MSSA has an upcoming swap meet from 9/13/24 to 9/15 for those members who may be interested.
-
Well I hope some of y'all made it anyway. I haven't checked this site in a few months and missed it, would have loved to meet some locals. Hopefully there will be another.
-
I couldn't make it, spend to much time at the head. AC in truck not working, wouldn't have been a fun drive. I went after 8 bundles of shingles at 9 am and the heat wore me out.
-
Well, only 5 of us showed. But it was nice to meet each other and chat a bit. I had a good time. Hopefully we can do this again with more people.
-
I'll be unable to attend due to an assignment I received from the State Guard to complete before the drill on Saturday at Camp McCain. Hopefully I can make a future one.

Was looking forward to the meet however I’ve got a kidney stone that I can’t pass and will be having a procedure to remove it on the morning of the 6th. I’ll try to catch the next one.

Small change in plans: Same location. We will be in the members lounge area, across from the restrooms. We have this room 5:30pm until 6:30pm. We can then move to the chair / couch area by the classrooms. Restaurant is closed to eating and seating. Location: Top Gun, 2770 Whitten Rd, Memphis TN 38133 Time: 5:30 to 7pm, Thursday, June 6, 2024 Cost: $ none

Unfortunately, my work schedule has changed and I will have to work that night. You guys enjoy.

It has come to my attention the restaurant at Top Gun is closed. They have plans to open again in the coming months. With plans for some remodeling/changing of the restaurant, it is uncertain if the restaurant seating area will be available. With about 10 people showing interest, we can gather in the seating area in front of the restaurant. Location: Top Gun, 2770 Whitten Rd, Memphis TN 38133 Time: 5:30 to 7pm, Thursday, June 6, 2024 Cost: $ none See your Thursday.

It was PointBlank first time going there. It wasn't the same after Range USA took over. I asked around with coworkers seeing if anyone shot there. Most everyone went to creek/river banks and used turtles, snakes and gar for targets.

Meet and Greet, June 6th 2024

The current Range USA(s) and the old one are not the same. The current brand was formerly ShootPointBlank, which is a multi state corporation. Imagine if Baskin-Robbin’s sold guns instead of ice cream. -
I checked out Range USA years ago while looking for local reloading supplies. They had some bullets but nothing else. The place was a bit more crowded than I liked and they didn't want my cast bullets with Alox. Range time was by the hour. A trip to Range Masters was about half the mileage so I shot there 4 times. Space in lanes was great. I carried my granddaughter and a friend, could get all 3 of us at the bench to show them how the guns worked at the same time. Shoot as long as you like. My 5th trip they were closed. My CCW permit class was in Southaven with shooting at Bullseye. It was small, dark with narrow lanes. I shot there twice before the class. The night of the class those walls seemed to get closer. Shoot as long as you like. Range USA has a new store in Southaven. I went there when it first opened to check them out. Have checked them out a few times online since. Can have orders shipped to store.
