Bryan 45 Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Joel, I may be able to make it up Friday. It's been a long time since I've seen you, probably not since we shot KY State Multigun together a couple years ago. I hope I run into you if I can make it this weekend.

latewatch Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 I'm planning on going Friday morning but it'll have to be a quick trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-JQ- Posted October 13, 2011 Author Share Posted October 13, 2011 Cool Bryan...will look for you. I might be a wuss and wait until tomorrow...I hate setting up in the rain a bit more than being a wuss...watching the radar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
want2race Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 I used to go snipe the pistol match over there. I haven't been in quite a while. It's fun, but a LOT of waiting time for a 50rd match. I don't think I can squeeze it in this weekend though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-JQ- Posted October 13, 2011 Author Share Posted October 13, 2011 OK I decided to man up and go tonight anyway...I'll pick up a bale of straw on the way... This will be the first time going since selling the MP5 ...could use a buddy's in the subgun match but think I'll just watch this time. Like Shaun said wait times can be debilitating there...til the buzzer goes off. See ya in the pole barn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trey A Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 Sounds like a great time, but unfortunately the old boss man not letting people off on Saturdays, its hard to hit the good shows every other weekend! Be safe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarge Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 (edited) I went to this thing back in the very early 80's while stationed just down the road at Knox. I hope everybody who likes this kind of thing has a great time. I just personally never felt comfortable with the whole atmosphere. Huge rebel flag(at least back then), little kids shooting machine guns, etc.. Edited October 14, 2011 by Kevin Sanders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Schwab Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 I went and had a great time. The pistol match was short, but it's nice to shoot a match, go to a gun show, and watch machine guns shooting all in one day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-JQ- Posted October 20, 2011 Author Share Posted October 20, 2011 Bill, maybe you saw me there? Average height thinnish white guy with a ball cap on I didn't shoot any matches but I was glad I went down through the rain Thursday. A bunch of the old time vendors (HK especially guys) no longer go...and I was disappointed that a bunch of junk vendors are now going...not where I would go to buy a used screwdriver...WTH? Was a good time visiting with old friends over a camp fire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has gone down hill the last several times so we decided the Spring event earlier this year was the last one for us, after more than 15 years we just missed our first one. No more, the last event cost us about $3k for the week and we made a profit of about $400, on pre-sold items. Started seeing all the tools and beef jerky so we decided it was time. We miss hanging out with our buddies but I guess things change. I did get to run my buddy's Mini-Gun last time, went out with a bang, about 3000 a minute....
