Poll: NW Firearms Members Training Event

[WrenchNguns]

No, fire is out...in mop up stage.

Hwy 14 should be open later today, if not take I-84 to Hwy 97 Biggs Junction, then head North to Goldendale to get around it.

Thank you.

 

[Cerberus Group]

We are about 12 miles east of Goldendale, up on the high desert area...we can see most everything coming for miles. So far everything is staying to the West of us by several miles.

Will post here if anything comes up that might change the class date(s) or time.

Right now, WSDOT has a 16 mile stretch of hwy 14 closed (roughly between hwy 197 and hwy 97). It affects the route I prefer from the Vancouver area, but I won't need to travel until the evening of Aug 4th. There's time enough for that to clear up and some other complication to arise.

Just so happens I'll be there next Friday
... you might be happy to be shed of me by the time pizza/beer:30 rolls around, though.

I'm coming Friday night too. What time is Pizza?

It looks like Hwy 14 is open... I see traffic over there. No smoke

Yup it's open. Has a reduced speed of 45 mph because of fire crews still in the area.

Just got back from the "Run the Gun" that I went to yesterday (8/4). I did certain things OK and other things not so well. This was my first formal training class so I will work on my shortcomings. Thank you Steve.

I did the "Run the gun" for pistols yesterday. I really want to thank Steve at @Cerberus Group for a fantastic class. It definitely showed me my short comings and equipped me to fix them. I would recommend to everyone to take a class with Steve. Don't think you're not good enough or this is below your skill. It will challenge and build you up whatever your skill level. I am looking forward to improving myself and to take the full two day pistol class next year. Also, it was great to meet and train with fellow members.

You did fine. Never gave up, worked through some tough training issues and came out the other end putting some groups together better than when you started.

Stay with it...

Thanks for your trust.

You started out strong and stayed consistent throughout the day, even did well with the "Curtis/Chuck/Cliff Unload" as the last drill of the class. When you slowed down, there were very few who were out shooting you...so I know you'll go far.

The class is what I call basic, as I feel the skill sets are necessary that everyone should know how to run any firearm efficiently. I've had some people not sign up, as they thought it was just another basic class. So far everyone has told me this is far from a basic class, yet agree these are needed skills...in my opinion, basic necessary skills.

The Curtis Drill is my favorite.

 

[Cerberus Group]

I have actually written that into my curriculum, it will always be the last drill of the day, be it pistol or rifle.

Formally titled "The Curtis unload drill".

I'm famous. I'm so happy. "Steve, I still have more ammo. Let's CHOOT EM!"

 

[Cerberus Group]

Since I still have ties to an ammo company, we'll pull an all nighter!

I did Run the Gun on Aug 5th, the first hands-on pistol training I've had since early 1975. My, how things have changed, and all for the better. Much to learn, many ways to improve, and lots of fun in the process. Thanks, Steve.

 

[titsonritz]

This is my thinking. Oh yeah BBQ. My problem is I'm injured at the moment and will be down for quite a while.

I had everything squared away to make it out to this before fracturing my ankle at the end of May, and unfortunately I'm still having issues. Really looking forward to signing up for a full class once I'm 100%.

I'm just now starting to get better from cracking my ribs May 9th. I had my fingers crossed I be up for it but when the time came I wasn't even going to try.

You did great. It was a pleasure to train beside you.
