So I believe I am taking firmbuttgntl as my guest. I think we'll be getting to the range around 1:00~2:00, and staying for something like two hours.

Anyone else want to come along? jlphipps & boyfriend? gunguy (if you have an FETC membership...)?

Arsenal thus far:

• Finnish M39, 7.62x54R
  
• Yugo M48 w/ Mojosights, 7.92x57
  
• Egyptian Hakim, 7.92x57
  
• Tokarev AVT/SVT-40 chimera, 7.62x54R
  
• FN FAL, 7.62x51
  
• Beretta Storm, .45
  
• Beretta 92FS, 9mm (we might not actually bring it if guests don't come along or people aren't willing to pay for ammo; Ben and I both hate the thing)
  
• Sig 220, .45
  
• Browning Buckmark, .22LR

Might show up if I hear from the bf. If not, I might be stuck here doing work

Weak.

Well, I'm poor right now and would need him to pay for it

9/16/2006 12:43:14 AM

So, we get to use your arsenal, is that how this is going to work?

We might make you pay for ammo.

Sadly, the only gun which is actually mine of the set is the M39.

Which will also, for various reasons, be the sexiest of the bolt-actions we're bringing. The M48's a little bit on the crunchy side, and we're not bringing along the K31 because ammo's so damned expensive (and Ben and I have maybe a hundred rounds between the two of us).

Pistols, if anyone wants to shoot the 92FS, they'll have to bring or pay for ammo; Ben and I both hate the thing.

Ben has an entire case of .45, and .22LR is absurdly cheap.

We're not actually sure if we're taking the SVT along (Ben says it's acting weird), but it eats 54R just like the M39.

The Hakim (8mm) is almost definitely coming along, and it gives us a semiauto 8mm option.

The FAL is dependent on someone helping with paying for ammo. I think PDHSC still has a battlepack or two of SA; we'll probably buy that up, I think we'll pop in for a bit to see what kind of ammo they have in stock. I hope they have a crate of '54R surplus, but I haven't heard of anything along those lines lately.

I will have to think about this, mostly on account of the poorness of my bank account.

So, when you say pay for ammo, do you mean buy it there (assuming it's available), bring our own, or reimburse whoever bought it in the first place?

9/16/2006 12:53:44 AM

Reimburse, more or less. If it's 8mm or '54R, or even .45, we can let it slide (for a while, anyway). But we don't actually have any 9mm or 7.62x51 at this time, so if we do get a hold of some and you want to try them out, you'd need to pay us back eventually. However, Ben and I are both sufficiently solvent that you wouldn't have to pay us back immediately in cash or firstborn.

Maybe secondborn.

^_^ I have 50 rounds of 123gr 9mm luger, and I could have sworn I had another box of ~75 somewhere, but I can't find it.

If I make it out there, I'll donate what I have to the cause. If i make it out there.
