yes

At least it wasn't as bad as my brother (repeter) leaving a gun there.

Ouch. Didn't know he did that. Been a few years ago since that happened I'm guessing

Doh! That is my biggest fear at these things.

 

[actaeon277]

I think he helped somebody with something, and forgot he put his gun down.

Later, someone asked me about it.
He's a Sig groupie, so I figured I'd call him and ask.
He checked, and oops, was missing one.

I was there but I didn't do much socializing lol

Did I walk past you and stare?
I thought I saw you, but wasn't sure

 

[tv1217]

Had a Good Day -

Hope they have a 10 or 15 yard lane next year

^^^^ I was talking with the Winamac DNR office about a month ago. They said there are plans for a 15 yd range next year. Just passing on some FYI.

Yup. Will be utilizing one of the benches at the 25 yard range. So 25 yard will be down to 2 benches. Been in the works for almost 2 years now but bureaucracy slows everything down

^^^^^ Thanks for the info. The thing about the benches is new information. Wonder why they just don't build new ones? Surely the cost is not that prohibitive?

They are too far to the northwest for the state to allocate them much money.

Sorry guys, Liz came down with a mean little bug last night, so I have been taking care of her all day. I really wanted to make it.

It sounds like they're leaving that part of it be but need to reconfigure the backstop, for the closer target at 1 of them. At least that's my understanding

Guess us northern Hoosier are just "not worthy"

Jasper Palaski is in the same boat, they don't get very much money. I had a buddy who tried to get a job there for 5 years before they opened up a single new grounds position. They barely get enough money to the cost of staff. I'm sure Winamac is the same way.

Actually, coincidence you should mention the job thing at a FWA. The person I talked to at the Winamac DNR office told me they have experienced difficulties finding people to work at the Winamac FWA and range? Apparently the gentleman who had been the range master at Winamac passed away unexpectedly. According to her He and his wife had been co-range-masters at Winamac. However, once he passed she just could not bring herself to stay at the range. Just to many memories. I respect that.
