[TGO David]

WHEN: Saturday, June 21, 2008. 11:30am - ??

WHAT: Middle Tennessee TGO Meet & Shoot

WHERE: Spring Hill, TN (Owl Hollow Gun Club)

We will all meet for lunch at 11:30 in Spring Hill at the Owl Hollow Gun Club. Lunch will be grilled on site! (click here for map)

Cost to shoot is $5.00 per person. You must supply your own eye and ear protection, paper targets and target hanging materials. Handgun pits require clothes pins or tape to hang targets from a wire stretched across the pits. Rifle lanes require a heavy duty staple gun to fix your targets to the backer boards.

Recommend that you bring insect repellent. Weather dependent, also bring sunscreen and/or shoes that you don't mind getting muddy and dirty. This is an OUTDOOR range.

Also, several have suggested grilling burgers or hot dogs on site at OHGC. If the OHGC governing body is okay with that, then so am I.

My recommendation would be to eat at a restaurant in June and aim for July to have a cook-out if it is permitted by the gun club. This will give time to solicit permission from OHGC and then seek volunteers to bring supplies, food, a grill, etc.

July is a great cook-out month anyway.

[musicman]

Yippee!!! Awwww c'mon.... we had so much fun yesterday we should just have two meets in June!!

[TGO David]

Yesterday convinced me that I really want another automatic rifle of some sort. Shooting my old .30-06 was fun and proved to me that my Nikon scope can hold zero for over eight years w/o fiddling with it... but it also made me start thinking dirty thoughts about another AR platform rifle.

Maybe I'll go .308 this time...

[musicman]

I feel you there, man. Every time we shoot I realize how sad it is that I have NOTHING built on a semi-auto platform anymore. It's not because I'm too dumb to know how an auto works, but that I had to sell about half of my guns awhile back. Some of my revos took awhile for me to find, and I don't know if I could easily replace them when money gets better, but I know I can always buy another P22, 10/22, plastic fantastic, etc etc. Smith isn't making P&R model 19s anymore. The semi I miss most was my A2 config AR. Something about a 30rd mag and that nice, comforting bark makes my soul weep at its departure.... that and it's a killer gun for playing redneck golf!!

As I mentioned in the May thread, I'm more than happy to do the grillin' if someone can supply a charcoal grill ... and a 1911 for my trouble (j/k). Mine is too big to be dragging from Antioch to Spring Hill.

We could always just stab hot-dogs onto the bayonet of musicman's Mosin... one or two shots should cook them to perfection.

[Guest NoLimitSoldier]

Count me in, I need to meet some people up here. Just moved from atlanta.

[TGO David]

Definitely come out and meet the locals.

[Guest tokarev]

Problem with roasting 'dogs on the M-44's bayonet it the muzzle blast has a nasty habit of scattering tiny bits of said 'dogs over a few dozen square yards Hah!

[Guest tokarev]

Hmmm, I haven't taken my M4gery out to the range in a while. I'll have to try to remember to bring it next time.

[Guest Jason F.]

Either Saturday works for me. I have a new toy to shoot.

[xd shooter]

I'll say it again since it is gone. I'll have my new toy there too. anyone else bringing any smokepoles?

As far as what day to vote for I have to wait to see what Angel's shift is going to do???

[HanSolo]

I will be there. It always a blast to get together with you guys and gals. I am hoping to have my mits on a XDM by then, but I have to see if I can sell my xd tactical first.

[Guest Disney]

I'll be there this time!! I've missed the last couple, now I gotta make up for lost time.

[TGO David]

The date for this event will be Saturday, June 21st. It will take place at the Owl Hollow Gun Club in Spring Hill, TN as before.

Lunch arrangements have yet to be made but we are investigating the option of grilling on site. If that falls through, the alternative lunch location will be the Burger King in Spring Hill at 11:30am.

Several attendees had mentioned that they were tired of Snappy Tomato and preferred to just eat quick and head to the range. I agree with both of those sentiments.

Stay tuned for a definitive answer about where we will be eating.

[Guest Jason F.]

Might I suggest that should we grill out we plan on extra food. As guests of he Owl Hollow member I would think it polite that if any of them wander up to see what all the grilling and fuss is about we have extra burgers to offer them. It would probably add very little to the bottom line to plan on a few extra burgers or dogs. Just seems like the right thing to do to me.

[SHbicycle]

Can I bring my Spawn.

We can make him reload while we hold off the evil targets.

The 21st is best for me have to work the 12th.

[Guest Angel 24/7]

Is it the Burger King in Neapolis? Across from Saturn? Our stores are owned by the same man, I can give them a heads up you guys are coming?

[Guest HunterH]

It is looking really good that we will be able to grill out at the range. THe leadership of OHGC have been very warm and receptive to the TGO folks and I am happy that things are working out so well. I will have a final answer about if we can grill immediately after the OHGC board meeting on June 10.

In other news...I am offically a range officer for the club now, no longer a trainee. I think that will give us more leaway on what we can do there as the president and board of the club know I will be there to sponsor the event and ensure safety, etc.

I should also be hearing about an orientation session on a week day evening specifically set up for TGO people. I should have a date to propose in the next several days.

Looking forward to seeing you all again soon!!
