Tillamook Forest - May 21 2016

[Cogs]

Sooo much fun today! Really enjoyed it. The only part that was not fun was getting lost first thing in the morning. We missed the turn to the pit and kept driving. I didn't print a real detailed map and when I get there, it sure looks different than how it looked on the map. TimberTodd, LoneWolf and I finally figured it out and found it with help from Reno911. So we started a little late. The rest of the day was very cool!

30 volunteers! 22 were NWFA members! The 30 yard dumpster was almost to the rim. We cleaned 3-4 shooting sites and relocated one tweaker camp to just down the road into a dumpster (found a crack pipe, some drug paraphernalia, an overstuffed chair that had a hide-a-bed in it, a mattress and some other items. Wish I could be there to see them come home when they realize they've been moved!).

Thanks, All. It was great!

We had such a great time today. Thanks to the NorthWest Firearms community for a day well-spent and thoroughly enjoyed. It was great meeting you all.

One of the highlights of the day... Tara!

The after party was great. I would've had the loudest guns there if'n it weren't fer that darn Barrett That sorts out the quality ear protection from the cheap ones.

If no one minds I'd like to share some of those photos over on the Liberal Gun Club board. Hopefully we can get more of our members to join in on such worthwhile projects.

Tremendous day indeed! Our impact to the shooting areas was significant. Everyone should have walked away feeling proud for being a part of it. None of it would have been possible though without the dedicated, great leadership. Thanks for a quality event!
Also, my compliments to the cook.

I love the way people go out of their way to make an event like this a little special. Thank you @bolus for that Bacon treat! Thank you @cigars for that smoke treat! Thank you @Qaolin for the fine cuisine!

Reno911 sorry about taking out your awesome target...twice. Lol.
I like that 1/2" steel plate. I'll be heading out to Sportsmans Warehouse to pick up those rebar brackets.

The chain is smaller than the target. Your sub MOA!

Of course, that's exactly where I was aiming... exactly I tell you.

"Aim small, miss small"

The man likes a challenge.

I know I rang that several time with my little Mauser. My first time shooting steel. I like it.

I see how to upload photos, how do I upload .mp4 video?

I see how to upload photos, how do I upload .mp4 video?

I did a search "How to upload a video" and see it's not available yet. Here's a clip of the conversation I read in the thread...
How should we handle images and video?

Are we allowed now to upload video from our PC's ?


Joe Link said:
Not yet, but we are looking at adding this ability in the future. In the meantime it's best to upload to Vimeo or YouTube, then embed the video in your post.
