Kickin it with the XD Homies -> Central OH Gathering

Post by OldManTod »

Hey Everybody - I wanted to pimp a central OH shoot we have coming up - you don't have to be an XD'er, but you just may have to wrap lace around your grip if you show up with anything else :)

Hope to get a good turnout there.

If Commie Bloc pistols are allowed, I'm in..

What color lace?? :)

Shhhh... Don't tell anybody - I am showing with a commie pistola myself, Pop and I did some horse trading and I ended up with a G26 :twisted:

I also will be bringing the S&W M&P 9 to shoot, but I am thinking I will have ( :roll: ) to bring the XD45 to keep the natives in check.

I think ~9:00 a.m. - the times and details are over at XDTalk.

As far as lace - I am bring pink and white so I am prepared...

Pink works, if I must. :) Austria isn't really a Commie Bloc country though, it's a "federal parliamentary representative democratic republic" dontcha know?

Besides, a true Commie bloc gun doesn't have any plastic, I mean polymer, on it. Real Commie guns are all steel, all the time. Of course they weigh as much as a T-72 and the bluing tends to look like it was done in Stalins toilet, but they shoot nicely and stand up to lots of abuse.

A coworker bought a nice XD40 package, (his first handgun) and ended up trading it for a really nasty old Ford pickup truck. Don't ask me why, I'll just tell ya. He couldn't shoot the thing like a pro the first day he had it, so he didn't like it anymore. Too bad. His loss, it's a great pistol. My CHL instructor had an XD45, he let each of us shoot six rounds through it. That thing was a tack driver at 21 feet, I shot all six rounds into a 1 inch hole. No lie. Awesome machine, but it was just too big for me to carry.

Anyway, this sounds like fun, and I'm not far away. Probably see you there!

I would have been there if they had gone with the July date. Alas, I'll be gone in August.

So is this a ride in also? Just how much guns and ammo can you carry on a bike before the local PD gets interested? I might try to make this myself, I guess I'll have to go get an XD so I don't stick out :wink: , but I'll probably end up with a couple 1911's. At least they're an American gun, made in some obscure third world country that has changed names three times since I wrote this post.

Darn. I am doing "shooting" of a completely different variety that day: wedding photography.

This time of year Saturdays really get eaten up!

I would tell you the details of the swap for the G26 - but the XD guys would lynch me.

Could be a ride-in, I was going to bring the truck so I can carry shotguns/rifles as well just in case.

Glad the word is getting out, sorry to those folks who can't make it.

I read the stuff on XD talk and it's on the forum at BCDSR. I'm pimping all over the place to promote the range and joined as a member the second day they opened. I'll be the one passing out fliers at the Aug party and I'll be there again tonight for the Wed nite two gun shoot. I only wish they were around when I took the CCW course. The guy that teaches it actually teaches stuff relevant to CCW conditions. I think his name is Ron. As far as I'm concerned it's about the only range that actually qualifies for real CCW practice in central OH. Hope I meet you at the XD shoot. If anyone's embarassed about bringing a less than perfect XD I'll be happy to loan you my .45GAP if you can find the bullets for it. :P

I guess since I got TBD a XD9 for our anniversarylast week... I will try and let him go show it off... I will bring my 9x18 MAK and maybe my lever action .22 Henry. TBD and I went out there once to check it out, nice range. They have a lot of potential. Hope to see you there.
