Default Ping Jim Chandler and Bruce Bergman..Pistol Match

If both of you gentlemen would call me 805-732-5308 Id appreciate it

Jim..I need directions to the match Sunday..Im in Ontario and have
very limited internet access, and cant find the directions.

Bruce , Ive got a couple 9mms, a couple 38/357s, several .45s, my pet
..41 magnum and some others, with me.

Im short on ammo for the 9mm and the 38s, didnt have time to handload
any over the (working) holiday. You either need to buy some (best
price at Walmart at the moment..."white box", or tell me what you want
to shoot, and Ill buy some for the shoot Sunday.


Call me and we can discuss it.

Gunner, piggy backing on wifi at the moment, though will have a
legitimate connection later friday.

Uhhhh, Gunner, that's Ontario outside L.A., right? As opposed the
province of Canada with 12m bodies.

Just checking :-)).

Just saw this - will call as I'm on my way up there. If we miss
each other, .45 works fine. I can always Dial 1911. Have plenty of
..22LR and .25

East on Bear Valley Road (Hwy 18) and from the aerial maps you make
left on Rabbit Springs Road - it's a dog-leg where Hwy 18 bends south
a bit, and Rabbit Springs follows that due East property line.

Then an IMMEDIATE Left (~100 feet) onto the range access road. a
hundred feet due West, then turn right and about two miles due North
tucked up against the base of the hills.

The whole mess looks like it was a 4-way stop at one time, then they
decided to reconfigure and make the highway through traffic.

I'm going to bed. Don't expect me at 7, I'll try to be rolling by
then, Dad permitting.

It was Great meeting you and Jim Chandler!
I enjoyed working with you on technique and you were doing quite well
there towards the end of the match.

The offer still stands, get yourself a reliable shooting iron of your
choice, and come on up and Ill run you through my personal "stay alive
on the street" course. Or simply come up and Ill dig something up for
you to fire off.

For those of you that could have gone, but didnt, you missed one of
the nicest facilities Ive seen (and Ive seen many), and a great bunch
of people, and a very enjoyable shooting experience.

I fully intend on making any future shoots that they have. Ive not
enjoyed myself (well..except for being so damned rusty at this sort of
competition..sigh...) in a long time and it felt damned good to step
out onto the firing line again. Running a few rounds downrange every
3-6 months just doesnt keep the skill levels honed. Winter (and cooler
weather) is coming..so more range time....time to start reloading and
bullet casting again.

Thanks Jim, and Im looking forwards to meeting you again, and the same
to Bruce.
Bruce, give my respects to your Dad for me. A very nice man indeed.

I have to shake the extended Family Tree and see if there are any
other heirloom shootin' irons that Aunts and Cousins don't know what
to do with... They shouldn't be in closets.

Then I'll start shopping in earnest.

Beats the hell out of the 'unimproved ranges' out in the forest.

You did notice they have their version of a Hogans Alley in the
back, right?

Shall do - it's almost time for the goodnight check-in.

Yeah, you might have the knees, but Dad's still got you beat by a
country mile for the "M.D. Needlework Award".

Need to mill the Savage Stevens Model 34 for a scope, in case I need
to make a Long Distance Call - that works much better than throwing a
rock. Does that get dovetails, or just a couple of tapped holes?

22 bolt action?

I think Id order a dovetail base from brownells

http://www.brownells.com/aspx/NS/sto...SCOPE%20 BASE

drill the 2 or 3 holes as suits your action, and mount a decent Chicom

scope with a dovetail ring set from ebay as well

Hell..I can probably find you a scope in the stacks o stuff

The feelin is mutual Gunner and Bruce. BTW Bruce, Anne's son, Brian,
sends his thanks to your dad for pulling his ticket for the S&W .40.

We are already working on another match of some kind and I'll pass it on
as soon as something is firmed up.

If you think the range is nice now, wait until they get done fixing it
up. That patio area is going to be torn down and re-built. This is
only one of three ranges in the country owned by Lions Clubs. I'm
joining this coming Thursday, or at least putting in my app.

Hope to see you guys again soon. If I don't get down before, which I
probably will, I'll get with you on the 26th, Gunner and give you your
trophy. I have tickets to go see a taping of Jeopardy and will be
passing pretty close by.

if you still have my phone number, give me a call the day before if
you know when you are passing through and ill meet you, or if im hung
up someplace, or you can drop it off a few blocks south off the 10
freeway, , off Central Ave. 5 minutes off, 5 minutes back on, at
most.

Woody's Bar & Grill
1528 W. Holt Blvd,Ontario,California 91762

I hang out, play pool there (chuckle...Im a non drinker..which
confuses some of the patrons)...Im pretty well known there, so if we
cant make the meet up, give it to any of the lady bartenders for
Gunner, they will hold it for me.
Take a look at the model airplanes hanging from the ceilings, all done
by an Air Farce bird colonel who lives in the area.


Are the final scores posted anywhere on the net? It would be
interesting to see the various scores/classes.

Question though...I noticed several people shooting .22s.

One assumes that their scores were tallied differently than those
shooting a Major caliber?

If not..Ill bring the High Standard Citation the next time EG

No recoil and points real fast....chuckle

Nope, I didn't post the scores anywhere. Not enough were interested to
worry about it. I do have copies of them but there is no way of telling
whohad which weapon. The .22s were just lumped in with all the rest
because of the small number of competitors. It would depend greatly on
what the lady bartender looks like whether I give it to her or not. :-)

Day be some pretty good lookers. (and one decent looking heifer) And
they often flash their tits G
The show is worth the $4 price for a Monster energy drink...chuckle..

later in the evenings...the bi chicks (which includes about half the
bartenders) show up..and the impromptu shows can be REALLY
interesting....VBG

If you want a cold one, or beverage of your choice, tell em Ill take
care of it when I come in, assuming we dont meet up.
