Ungawa memorial Shoot November 12

[27hand]

Do you guys do name tags and such or do people just ask
"Hey Joe, where are you going wirh that gun in your hand"

[R L Suehr]

This will be my first PAFOA shoot.. I know I have been slacking but my wife keeps a busy schedule..

Plus this is a memorial shoot... any problems bringing one guest firearms nut who I have been trying to get to sign up in here?

I'm fine with it. I can't speak for Pahuntingfool, but I don't think he'd object. Use it as leverage to get him to sign up. We can always use more cannon fodder around here.

We usually do name tags. Bamboo Master usually brings them, since he's not going to make this one, I'll come up with some. Hey you is perfectly acceptable though too.

Since it looks like I might be going, I still have the box of clays from last time... Whether someone is bringing a thrower to actually shoot em, or we just hang em up to shoot em, it'd be great if we could use them all up!

I'll have to figure out the food situation...

Guns I plan on bringing...

HK Mark 23 (.45 ACP) + suppressor
MP5 Clone SBR (9mm)
HK USP Compact .45 w/ threaded barrel
HK USP Tactical 9mm
Built .22 AR
Rugged Obsidian .45 Suppressor (compatible with everything except for the Mark 23)
PTR91 (.308)

If we're doing clays, I can bring a shotgun or two as well...

I've got a hand thrower somewhere. I'll dig it out just in case. Glad you can make it.

Here's the deal with donations. I've spoken to gunlawyer about it, since he handled them earlier this year for Ungawa. He made the suggestion of starting a fund in Ungawa's name to help out future pafoa members who get into trouble like he did. I've been mulling that over and decided to ask you guys what you would want to do? The actual Shoot is funded at this point I believe, so anything donated would go into this fund or we can just give it to Ed's family as we previously had planned. You guys are the ones donating, so I'll take your input on how to best use the money in Ungawa's name. Please let me know your thoughts on this either in the thread or in PM if you prefer. If I have to I'll make a separate thread about this.

Thanks

I would suggest a separate thread so it does not get lost in here!

If anyone has portable target holders and steel they want to bring it isn't a problem its how we get ideas at these shoots. Like the portable gun rack idea I stole from emptymag lol.

I have steel. I did break it all down before I thought I could make this shoot.
I'll see what I can put together but figure about 8 pieces or better depending on time I have.
Since food, coffee, stoves etc etc seems to be accounted for( I will bring a couple pounds of thick sliced bacon and 2 or 3 dozen cookies, 3 gallons of water, some hand cleaner and paper towels, I'll try to get more steel ready.
I'll bring a table & a couple chairs, EMs rifle rack and our guns / ammo.
Do we need any cardboard backers?

new thread w/poll.
which is in more dire straights. the family or the other fund?

[spandexlurch]

I don't know if anyone is interested but I found that cans of barbasol make great, cheap "explosive" targets. I shot a few over the summer, one with .223 which demolished the can and once with a 308 which shredded a can. I don't know if it is environmentally friendly but they can be gotten cheap at the dollar stores.
I'm also thinking of bringing along
a S&W M&P 9
Enfield No4
Stag AR-15
Hatsan Escort Magnum 12ga semi
and maybe my work Berretta 92FS
