Can the MP 15/22 be used if we have anti rotation trigger pins installed?

 

[Joe Link]

Just added this to the event calendar for you

The 'official' reply at this moment is no; however, our national leadership met a week or so ago and I'm sure this was one of the agenda items. As soon as I hear anything I will post it up.

In the mean time, I do have several rifles that I'm happy to lend out or DRRC does allow center fire so you can shoot your AR - no steel core ammunition please.

This looks like a blast. I'm a veteran and I look forward to any event that gives me the opportunity to learn and send some rounds down range

 

[Joe Link]

Good to see more people signing up for this. Wish I could make it!

I gotta question. How does this work with the service rifle match thats goin on on saturday? do you guys use silhouette while they are on 100/200? then shoot distance sunday?

 

[Goosebrown]

I'll be bringing my son Aedan for this one. Still undecided if I'll shoot or just help him out. We're excited but a little cold already.

Yes, we are on the Silhouette range. This event is limited to 25m. We will be using scaled targets to represent 100, 200, 300 and 400 yards.

Think of it this way - it will be 15* warmer than today

We prefer that you shoot and be an encouragement to Aedan. Let us be the coach. Flipper will be there to keep him on target

Thanks !!

 

[Goosebrown]

Looks like I am shooting too then! Yay!

Are we shooting from under cover?

 

[Goosebrown]

Good to see more people signing up for this. Wish I could make it!

Wish you could too. You seem to come to the things I miss and visa versa.

Going to do another social?

Yeah, it's about that time! I'm thinking shortly after the holidays.

Also, the are you shoot from is covered

I ask because the first time I did AS it was damned cold but dry and we were in front of the cover. I like cover... I am a bit of a wimp.

 

[Kimber Custom]

It's going to be wet. We will be under cover. We will bring some propane heaters too.

 

[JSJPDX]

I'm signed up and will be there. Looking forward to meeting everyone!

 

[Joe Link]

Well, how'd it go?

 

[Goosebrown]

it was a great class. Wet and coldish, but great. Kimber and Crew put on a great class.

My son had a hard time the first day. Second day he was not too much better till I traded rifles and let him shoot my AR and I took the 10/22. After that it was gong to take a power tool to remove the smile from his face. He shot worse with it, significantly worse, but he enjoyed it more. He picked up a LOT from the class.

In this regard, this class is going to cost me a bomb now that I have to build out another AR for him...

I learned quite a bit too. I always get wrong which way to adjust scopes and Kimber showed us a cool trick that works on all my scopes so I am now WAY up on where I was before the class. There is always another take away every time you repeat an Appleseed.

Since it was wet, they put the cardboard in plastic trash bags and then attached them to the back and the top of the target frames with the top bent over to protect the face of the target, and the paper there, from the rain. Very clever that.

Ben and Crew (Flipper, Wayne and John). Thank you for the effort and the great time.

I really like winter shoots. Something about the warm glow of a propane heater

Almost had winterseed conditions. Our AQT on Saturday was 36*. 35* would have gotten the ice cycle patch. It was a balmy 41* on Sunday.
