Lever Action Jubilee Oct 15 & 16

Post by w30wcf »

It is pretty much an informal get together in a relaxed atmosphere by lovers of lever action rifles.
Fellowship and fun with our Leverguns is the focus.
We do not keep time but scores are kept.

Sounds like fun, but alas I'm clear across the U.S. We need to get something like this over this side of the playground. :D

Or near the middle. I'd love to get involved but there's nothing near me and I'd want to have at least a couple other Levergun members there. And I think I'm the only one in central IL. :(

Jack Sr.
I think I'm gonna "tent it". It all depends on the weather. (as to temperature) If its a rain out--well, I'm out---can't stand gettin' my Winchesters wet.

I'll be there on Thursday night and Gunny will be there on Friday night---unless he can get off Friday.---Ya think they will let me come a day early? I can't see driving 250 miles for 1 and a half days of shootin'.

I figure we can play all day Friday---gonna bring some serious amounts of ammo. :D ------------Sixgun

At this point, I would not be able to get there on Thursday but Friday by noon would be doable.

If you decided to drive up on Thursday, I will get in contact with one of the members I know to let you in.

I'm taking 39A .22 L.R., 1892 25-20, 1894 30-30, 1892 Marlin .32 Colt, 1894 Marlin .44-40.
It's going to be fuunnn......

I'll touch base by email.

Jack,
Looks like Gunny will not be there. he has decided to shoot the New Holland "Across the Coarse"---some stupid military game. Screw it, I'll be there by myself----jack Jr.

Jack,
Sorry to hear that Gunny won't be joining you.

We'll just have to have fun without him!
