Where did you steal this writeup from? Who cares if the weather in Arkansas changes every 20 minutes?

Probably themselves... A quick look on their website shows that they are based in Arkansas

Tell Mark I'd be down, he's going to get a bunch of $ from the Mrs and I.
Planning on doing the carbine, level 2 pistol and hopefully the knife class.

Sorry about the Arkansas part. I copied and pasted it from their class listing on Event Brite.

Dude, i am doing all 3 as well. I don't think Scott and the other Tom will be able to make it to the Carbine course in April though.

I just wanted to know if there would be some interest in a course like this. I like training with Mark and his team.

Where are you going to take 800-1000yd shots on SEPA?

There has been talk of using a location (maybe not necessarily in SEPA) that CAN accommodate said yardages, however, if there is a lack of genuine interest, then this is moot.

I would be interested if I were younger. I hear of long range ranges out around Lancaster? That's only 1-1/2 hours away from ESEPA. (Extreme Southeast PA).

Sand sock? I thought sand was replaced with kitty litter many years ago. But then, looking at the Clintons, I can see where Arkansas would still be in the sand mode.

Apparently there is one in Lewisville. Also, Ft Indiantown Gap was offered up as an alternative, but Mark would have to get prior authorization to use the range at a military base.

Nice jab with the sand sock.
