3 Weeks 'til Knob Creek


Recommended Posts

Just curious as to how many people on the board are going to Knob Creek this spring.

 

I have made the trip for 10 years now. Planning on being there again. The biggest change I have seen ( beside prices of course ) is there are less machineguns and more beef jerky and T shirts...

I plan to be there on Friday also. I try to make all of them it is only a little over an hour for me. Someone pick out a place and time for those on the board who want to meat up and trade stories etc. I would like to see what some of the other Thompson "Nuts" look like http://www.machinegunbooks.com/forums/invboard1_1_2/upload/html/emoticons/blink.gif in person.

Some of us have been conversing via email and have decided to meet at 1:00 at the main entrance to the gun shop located right behind the main range. This should allow time for the early risers to cover the show and scout out all the interesting stuff......We plan to hash things out over lunch. Anyone wishing to join is is welcome. Just look for me. I'll be the one with the BDU camo pants a previous MG shoot shirt on, Ball cap and sun glases......Carrying some kind of firearm. I should be easy to spot.

 

Seriously I plan to be there at 5min til one and wait about 10 minutes to give anyone who wants to a chance to find us. I'll prob stand about 10 yards out from the actual door to stay out of the way. I am 46 years old , 5ft 10 with red hair bald on top but will be wearing a cap of some kind. Join us for lunch if you like. http://www.machinegunbooks.com/forums/invboard1_1_2/upload/html/emoticons/cool.gif

I think the guy in the last pic looks more like you than you do normally. Maybe its the tommie.

I will be down there wed to try and shoot a little before the madness. I'm bringing the 28A1 and maybe the M1 too...there will be a number of non thompson toys like the boys rifle, suppressed skorpion and maybe the suppressed ( or a shortie) 1919. Shooting on spot 19 and hanging out at the ohio ord tables helping out....

see ya all there.

That was good John. His mother is still upset over that photo! She's one of those "guns are wrong" people. Thank God she's not my daughter! She will be really pissed when I take him shooting this summer.

We are at the Radcliff on Friday nite. Can't make it to the show until Saturday morning. I'll be around the tables for a while while the shooting is going on. Look forward to meeting new faces. If it's raining, I'll have on a Harley Rainsuit. If not, a black harley jacket. And maybe a hat with "OKRACOKE" on it.

Could one of you guys from Louisville area give me an idea of the weather Friday???

 

I love slugging thru the mud...

 

Knob creek has been really wet in the spring and really dry in the fall. One fall they had to stop shooting because of the dry leaves catching fire...
