Fall TGT Meet & Greet Blowout - 10/4/14

[orbitup]

Per a recent poll and confirmation with the property owner, the big Fall TGT Meet & Greet will be held on October 4, 2014 at the location formerly known as Hicksville Gun Range.


The following updates related to the property are provided in hopes of answering anticipated questions. Please note that some of your questions cannot be answered either because we don't know or, won't be answered publicly out of respect for the owner's privacy.

- You will be attending a private party on private property
- Enter the range/party at your own risk. You are responsible for you and your guest's safety
- No Car Will Be Destroyed At This Event


Given the issues that have developed this year, we cannot be 100% certain the Fall Meet will be held at the above location and listed date. We have secured a backup location south of and just 30 minutes from both Killeen and Temple. If the event is held at the backup location, the meet date will be AFTER Oct. 4.

While these semi-annual meets have all been held at "Hicksville", given the recent complications, they will now and in the future bear a more generic name. Please join us in continuing to grow these events.

Hey guys, just a heads up. Tannerite will no longer be used to blow up objects at this meet. It is allowed for open field shooting, and we are also allowed to shoot objects. JD has requested that we don't blow up any more objects to eliminate the risk of people being hit by flying objects.

[Tejano Scott]

I'm so excited! Thanks for the update.

 

[Charlie]

Thanks for the update. I'm all in.

 

[Dawico]

There if I am in town.

 

[Glockster69]

Thanks for the update. I'm all in.

Raise your right hand and repeat after me ....


I, state your name, the Duvel drinkin', cigar smokin', crusty old fart that I am, do hereby solemnly swear to attend the Fall TGT Meet.


mmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Still in Tucson??

 

[Byrd666]

Thanks for the update.

 

[Sapper740]

Hmmm. Oct. 4th is Yom Kippur....can our Jewish member(s) attend?

 

[Glockster69]

The date was selected via poll, NOT a committee! The only reason it would change is noted in the next to last paragraph in the OP.

Why no car? I understand if this falls under the "not answered publicly" category but I'm just curious seeing as the destruction of an automobile with extreme prejudice is somewhat looked forward to by 9/10 rednecks (the tenth forgot how to vote)

 

[jrbfishn]

I'm in either way. Are smaller amounts of tannerite permitted?

Among other reasons, if something changes there could be a number of people who bought tannerite for the event specifically for a car that may not be there, or may not be allowed.

Easier just to count the car out for this one.


We apologize for any disappointment, now get over it

 

[Dawico]

Still in Tucson??

Yup. Another week or so.

Hoping to be off work until the meet after we finish here. Not likely but hoping.

 

[Southpaw]

I'm in, thanks for the update. I will be putting in for the time off tomorrow

 

[Orbie]

Trucks are not cars and they hold more tannerite....

 

[MaddogOIF]

Maybe and old dirt bike or motorcycle could be a good compromise.

A little underwhelming compared to a car, but doable.

We have not been told no to Tannerite so I'd say the previous rule of 20lb per charge stands. Besides, if you buy it and can't use it, you still own it.

Here's an idea that is a combination of Clarke's *hide the Tannerite in the bed of truck* and something I've wanted to do for a while.

Build a shack! A simple box would take only 4.5 or 7 sheets of plywood and some truss ties (or whatever they're called).

Someone that will not be shooting hides the Tannerite in the shack .. left .. right .. fore .. aft, and people take turns until the shack goes blewy!

Besides, plywood is a lot lighter and easier to clean up.

I have to say I actually like this idea. Add a prize to the one that gets the kaboom.

It doesn't even have to be a shack. Why not just a sheet of plywood stood up with the charge taped to the back somewhere. Same result with much less work and cleanup.

You would have to keep it somewhat low anyways to keep bullets from clearing the berm.
