catnipman Posted November 5, 2005 Report Share Posted November 5, 2005 Johne49, myself (catnipman), and 3 friends carted a truckload of (free) unsold Halloween pumpkins a few miles west of where I live into Roosevelt National Forest (where Colorado 72 Ts into Colorado 7 near Allespark, CO, for those of you who like to check things on maps). Between us we had two Tommyguns, two 12 gage shotguns, and a full auto Mini-14. When we first arrived at around 10,000 feet, the wind was whipping about and it was snowing, but fortunately, the wind died down and the sun came out for a couple of hours. The five of us spent almost 1000 rounds at close range. By the time we were out of ammo and all of the pumpkins had been turned into lead-impregnated pumpkin mush, the wind and snow started up again, and we decided it was a good time to call it quits until next Halloween. I took a few pics and Johne49 thought it would be nice to share a few of these pics on the board.

Good Job, not one casualty against the Thompson community. Death to the commie Pumpkins! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
