I'm in Noblesville, anyone up here could group up. Divide up Indy to N. Side, E. Side, West and South.  |
My Primary MAG goes from Valpo to Martinsville and out to Illinois state line. Beyond that there are others who would come if I asked. Then I would say there are two personal friends, who hang here and live in my AO that would be a part of an implied or developing MAG. All but one of my primary MAG has met one of my local buds, whether he realizes it or not.
Then of course there is friends and family. I have long felt the extended family is dying. One reason is we as a society are more mobile. We move away. While my family is very small and very mobile, we are intensely close. But my Bro and I are 800 miles apart. We are part of a larger MAG that covers some distance.
I think you will find it is best to just start the concept in here and let groups quietly develop based on personalites and locations. I would have nothing to do with anyone until I knew them better and there is one individual who hangs in this forum that I WOULD NEVER let near me.
Gun shows, camp outs, days at the raqnge and dinners are a good way to start. I have to go to an INGO function but they are a way for like minded people to meet, but just being Pro gun does not make people like minded. It does help.
