I can see you folks are going to have some fun! I "flew" around your area there with Google Earth -- looks like some very pretty country.

Re: Lever Action Jubilee Oct 13 & 14 Ridgway, PA
Excuses, excuses! Just because you live 1,000 or 3,000 miles away is NO excuse NOT to attend. Other excuses like "I died" or "My legs turned to jelly" just won't fly ............BE THERE!! Be a man and put away the skirt to attend "The most fun possible in the world of leverguns in the world"
Mr. Kort, I can't make it as thats the weekend I have to wash my hair.
Yea........right! I put in for a personal for that Friday and I'll probably scoot on outta here about 5 AM and should be there by 10 or so. I figured I'll camp up at the range right where I did in the State champs. Sad news.........."The Gunny" will not be there. His old lady has him henpecked to go to their camper that weekend. You can crash with me if you like.
I'll pack about a dozen leverguns and a couple of pump Colt Lightnings and at least 1,000 to 1,500 rds of ammo. Probably throw in a few S.A Colts for some Friday afternoon action.
Let the lead fly -----------------Sixgun

CAS...............its an easy drive for you. Just jump on 80 from your neck of the woods....cruise on west until you hit RT 219. It will be about like a "Noreaster" as thats about what is accomplished.........camping, lying, shooting. I'm bringing a big tent so you can "snuggle up" with me. -----------------Me

Re: Lever Action Jubilee Oct 13 & 14 Ridgway, PA
Yea, you too Griff. Fire up that KW and find a load to pick up in the Bradford, Pa area and come on over!! I'll have enough guns & ammo for anybody who wants to play.......and a place to "snuggle" if need be. Well, No snuggling, just a place in the tent to lay down yo butt.........but.....I can bring extra sleeping bags. There will be plenty of food and drinks for drunks afterward---------I have to refrain from that. .....old alky. ----------------SixgunGriff wrote:Hmmmmmmm..........

Hmmm… as much as I'd hate to miss an opportunity for some snugglin', it's 7 hours one way.
If you wanna come pick me up though…

My wife and I shot this event a couple of years ago and we had a blast! I'm sorry I haven't been able to make it back (life keeps getting in the way ), but if any of you fellows can go, DO SO! It's great fun!

Re: Lever Action Jubilee Oct 13 & 14 Ridgway, PA
I'd LOVE to be there... but, have to get up there, and am eyeballin' a Browning 1885 in .45 Colt... I have a match coming up that starts Nov 1... so... unless everything falls into place, probably won't happen.
Jack, John, I expect you two to represent us in the best possible light! Unlike if I were there!
