General Firearm Talk - Erie county

[Curmudgeon]

The other thread where I posted the suggestion is ridiculous. So busting it out here.

Tim Hortons - either 20A (southtowns) at the 219 exit or NFB at creekside (northtowns).

Pick a day and location next week and we'll meet up to shoot the shit.

My suggestions:

Monday March 4 at Noon at NFB.
Monday March 4 at 330 at 20A
Wednesday, March 6 at 20A any time after 11.
Thursday, March 7 Noon, NFB, or after 315, NFB

Other suggestions?

Lemme know.

 

[BDinPutnam]

Not in my AO but I whole-heartedly approve.

 

[Curmudgeon]

Thanks. Theres got to be a good 15+ peeps here from the area.

OP at 330 would work better but have to see if i can dip outta work early

 

[Curmudgeon]

I can do later if that works.

Let's see what consensus is.

 

[Podmonkey]

Would any of you Erie peeps be interested in heading down to Northern PA, Bradford say?

 

[Curmudgeon]

I would. When weather gets a bit better.

 

[Curmudgeon]

I'd actually make that a day. I like doing some occasional shopping down there. erie is nice, theres a good amount of stores I like to shop at and I can always hit the game land for some chootin'

I gotta see if @OnSight Firearms Training has anything going on in Bradford this spring, or summer. If some enough NYGF folks go I'd hit it up. Otherwise I'll stick to the Pittsburgh classes.

I also gotta see what open ranges are available in the area. The place I go too in Altoona is a bit of a drive for y'all.

 

[Curmudgeon]

State Game Land #109. I buy a permit every year. Its like $50 I think.

Public ranges in PA are lame. Not supposed to load more than 3 rounds in a magazine, no rapid fire. I heard that some fudd called the cops on a guy for bringing an AR15.
At my range on the other hand, well, I gave going akimbo with the G19 and PPQ a try last time. It was fun, ridiculous but fun.

FoF in Erie this spring

Same cop shows up every time we shoot. Checks our permits, reminds us of the rules, bids us a pleasant day. Yeah, 3 rounds is a thing but I've had worse problems.

Yeeeeaaaaah. If my DP60 drum isn't welcome I don't wanna go. Thhhhhhhbbbbbbbbttttttt I say.

 

[99cummins]

Not sure about those days but I’d be up for a meetup at some point. Middle of the county would be a bit more convenient for me.

Is that a pistol only thing?

 

[Tisto]

Who the hell isn't at work on Mondays, Wednesdays, or Thursdays between Noon and 3:30 ????? Really ?

You must just want to meet the retired or unemployed segment of NYGF members.

 

[Saltwater60]

Let me know what you guys decide on. If it works out for me I’ll be there. I’d like to meet up with some horrible people like me.

Haha. Noon = lunchtime for those of us who work standard days. I work 630 - 3 most days so 330 is happy hour.

What works for you?

 

[OnSight Firearms Training]

Is that a pistol only thing?

It will be based solely on pistol ......for you guys. But we might incorp some UTM rifle, air soft rifle as well.

 

[GOPerfect]

I am open to meeting for coffee/lunch. Not interested in a $350 class.
