Looking for shooting buddies

stonedkirby · 02-01-2010, 10:35 PM

Where do i start?

Looking to make some friends to plink with, teach me about firearms and hunting, and just hang out and get to know. On another day ( where we arent shooting ) we can grab some beers and hang out, play xbox, shoot pool, whatever. i dont care. But I am new to washington ( im a former NYC resident since birth ) and embracing my new freedoms. um. and i have no friends

It would be nice to network outside of NWFA.com and actually have people to shoot with.

Sensible, level headed people need inquire only.
I will ask you to explain things to me if they are firearm related. if that would piss you off, dont bother. if you dont mind being a mentor and a friend, please do!
I dont do any sort of drugs, so please dont reply if you do.

im 22 in case you were wondering.
And im hispanic. if that bothers you for some reason, im sorry.

If i posted my desperately lame attempt to make friends in the wrong place, tell me so, and i will gladly move my shame.

And i have my own guns, i wont mooch off of you to use your guns/ammo.

Thanks!

What city ya in? If your ever in the Seattle area just send me a PM, I need more friends with guns. As of right now every time I go shooting I'm the only one with firearms and it gets a little old.

Well, I was going to reply and say that I may live out of your area but I venture out quite often.

Then you had to go on and act like being a Yankee fan was a bad thing!

We could have been friends!

You might want to ease up on those restrictions just a little.

Or look somewhere else.

siphin · 02-11-2010, 07:59 PM

i live in vancouver and love to shoot with people. we should go some time...... that is if you dont mind 2nd amendment extremists.

CharlesAFerg · 02-11-2010, 09:12 PM

Not if you're stoned.

100% drug free.... I hardly ever drink either..... It is my belief that in order to defend your life and the lives of others around you you must maintain a clear mind and be focused on every thing around you. when your under the influance of anything that alters your mind then you are not in a state that allows for rapid and effective thought.

Spray-n-pray · 02-12-2010, 10:34 PM

Going over to English Pit in the morning for a while if anyone wants to go.....

twenty20b · 02-15-2010, 07:02 PM

i'm up for shootin. most of my friends dont have the love of guns in them. i'm one mile away from English Pit. i shoot mostly bolts actions.

fleshfrombone · 02-18-2010, 10:36 AM

Are there good spots in PO? I'm in Bremerton and if I can find a spot closer than where I go now I'd be a happy boy.

I posted my spot and a couple of others posted their Kitsap Peninsula spots in this thread: Close to Tacoma, WA areas to shoot? Check there and if your spot is better/closer in let us know where it is...

fleshfrombone · 02-18-2010, 09:24 PM

I go out to Dewatto too, a few miles past the sign saying now entering Mason County. It's a rocky trail that leads up to a logging area. The only road marker is a lone post with a piece of cardboard (probably long gone) called forest springs. It would be a lot easier for me to just show everybody if we could all find a day to meet up. I hope none of you guys are nut jobs, don't want to take you all out

Kidding of course, or am I

No seriously a shootout would be great. I usually go with my brother in law and his roommate.

i think one thing we need to establish is that its also kind of uncomfortable to meet people online who are armed, you want to know that they are safe shooters and mentally stable.

fleshfrombone · 02-18-2010, 09:56 PM

My sentiments exactly! I'm kinda sketchy meeting armed people and taking them as far out in the woods no one will know you're shooting.
