Yep, We're still in.

Got a few new pieces to bring this year.
XDs .45
Hi-point 995 carbine
AR-15 build, Moriarti Arms 5.56/.223 Wylde 18" fluted upper, Classic firearms NiB BCG, with E3 Arms Gen II lower

I also got a PSA classic/freedom AR-15 style rifle as part of a bundle with the XDs. Hopefully I'll have it sold by that time.

And dandy - what kinda' firearms did Momma Bear get this year, huh? Your new pieces sound awesome - I want to try them out, but Momma Bear needs a new 22...or 9, or 38...

I know right? Actually she only likes her .22 pistol & rifle. Doesn't even want to try shooting other calibers. She did like that .22 revolver we shot at the last event. Have to look into that.
Her son gave her a CZ P07 but she hasn't shot it yet.

There are lots of places to satay in Rapid City, but two of them that I can recommend and that are located on the west side of town, where we seem to congregate are...
The Garden Cottages Motel
4030 Jackson Blvd
Rapid City, SD 57702
605-342-6922
talk with John or Jennifer

or the Days Inn West Rapid City, 725 Jackson Blvd, Rapid City, SD 57702; 605-343-6040. You can speak with anyone there, but Angie is the manager.

Here's a group of TA.net-ers siting around relaxing after eating, or maybe it was while waiting to eat? Regardless, it's lots of fun to actually chat with your fellow forum folks in person!

Hiya folks - guess what - I am in the throws of making arrangements for us to attend a pig roast and wine tasting on Saturday September 8th at Belle Joli winery in Sturgis after we shoot Saturday afternoon! I've spoken with the owners, and it sounds like it will be a wonderful time! Stay tuned for more information on this and the rest of the event!! :):):)

Sounds great ! I guess we should look for campgrounds in Sturgis if there is to be a whole lot of wine tasting.

I would like all to remember that Sekol is doing the event this year, I just don't have the time and she was kind to take
the helm! Make sure you keep her informed and keep her in your hearts!:)

Papa bear and I are planning to attend this year, too.

And, Sekol, don’t think the Marylanders would welcome us with heaters strapped on our waists and shootin’ up an old . . . . never mind, S Dakota it is!

Wow, Daytona, there are gonna be so many dignitaries this year in Rapid City. If FIKL announces he is going, I'll have to put it on my radar just to be able to collect autographs! :)

Read about a Pastor in Tumwater who was a concealed carrier who shot a shooter in a Walmart Parking Lot. I couldn't help but wonder if it was Preacher Rogers. Never place a bet on your shooting ability with the Preacher. You will be outclassed! :)

Sekol seemed a little stressed last year. Wonder if my attendance caused any of it????:cool:

I agree, Jake. Preacher is a great shot! (And Jake is, too.)

Ummm, guess so, never been beat in a shootout with anyone at High Noon, but probably because I've never played Gary Cooper! :)

Preacher has better eyes, or better glasses and probably has a little divine intervention!
