The forums have been hosted for some time now out of my pocket. We are coming up on the annual domain renewal for ohioccwforums.org and I pay roughly $20/month to keep the forums online. I do this to maintain the long-standing history of discussions here indexed in Google, and so that people have a place to discuss this topic outside of modern social media censorship. If you enjoy the forums and you'd like to help offset the cost, please consider a venmo donation here
Want to talk about IDPA, IPSC, or other competition events you are involved in
or are interested in participating in? Want to know if anyone is going to a local gun show? Wondering when the next OFCC event is? All that and more is in this section!

Near the end of the night, Dave fired 4 shots (2 per target) into two targets and ALL the pasters that were put on from shooters before him came off in one fell swoop. It was classic!
It looked like he blasted the targets with shot shells. (thus the cheater remark)

I had those yard-sign wires in the vehicle and left without thinking to unload them.
I looked to see if perhaps you left them in the building....and ya didn't.
Guess you'll just have to come back some time.
I actually haven't done what I waned to do with said signs. I want to remove the election ad and use just the frame work to build larger frames (2 frames per target). Time seems to be a rare commodity these days.

Actually, by using 2 frames, I'll be able to tape card board on to the frame large enough to fit a silhouette target.
The standard election sign is too small, regardless how big the candidates ego is.

Jobu really loves his Glock!! (Just kidding)
He shoots an XD but likes when I call it a Glock...NOT!
Hey, I'm actually not one of those Glock haters. I had one, just didn't like the sub compact, so sold it. Not really fond of sub compacts anything. I'll actually probably end up buying a 17 (In case Dan is looking, that would be a 9mm) just to have if I run across anyone selling a used one real cheap.
But I did do a double take when you referred to my superior XD as a Glock. I'm not very good at detecting sarcasm sometimes.

I promise to bring the shot timer this time.
If I'm checking my calendar correctly, there should be one the 29th (5th Thursday, yes?)? I *should* be able to attend that one.

If my job didnt depend on it, I would quit that nonsense in two seconds.

Heck, you can shoot after you graduate!!

After I graduate, hopefully I'll be able to buy a place where I can have my own CCW Shoots and then you can come up with an excuse not to show up, instead of me.
And yeah, Mama (aka the Boss' wife) is proud. I bought her an NRA membership and I'm trying to get her into shooting. She enjoys coming out to my place to shoot, but my Dad (aka the Boss) has made it clear that I am not to buy her a gun.
