Title: Arkansas members?
Post by: deanda on July 24, 2010, 11:05:21 AM
Just curious if any Arkansas members.

Umarex is 45 minutes south of me, Daisy is 20 minutes north of me..........you would think this would be a little hot bed for airguns.........I'm thinking I'm the only person in the state that shoots airguns. lol!

Never been in the Northwest but have not lived here long.
Yes the 953 is fun to shoot as it is accurate. Would be nice if it was about 100 fps faster.
Sure there are more of us. Maybe your post will bring them out.

Duplicate of post I just made in the 'Carrol Co Airguns' thread:

'Tom @ Buzzard Bluff' weighing in from just South of Mammoth Spring. 'Buzzard Bluff' is this old limestone bluff 200' above a small river that I live on where the buzzards soar and play in the standing wave of air rising up the face of the bluff.

Hello Deanda,  I am in Fayetteville and have found a few shooters in NWA.  There used to be a great shooter and event organizer in Berryville.  He organized multiple FT events and then some benchrest.  Unfortunately,  rimfire benchrest has possessed him for the past few years.

When time allows, a couple of local shooters and I will take a ride out to Tulsa on Thursdays.  They have a wonderful weekly indoor 10M silhouette match from 6-8P at the oil capital gun range.  There is open shooting from 330P until the match starts.  Pistol shooting begins at 6P and is followed by rifle.  Typically around 20 members on any given Thursday.  It is quite a friendly environment and a great chance to see some interesting rifles.

               Listen Up Arkansawyers


Pay attention, now, folks.

There's a fine smoker here on my little acre.  There's a pretty decent range with
target stands at 10-meters, 50-foot, 30-yards, 50-yards ... and if we dare we can
stretch out to 75-yards.  I've got a dog who doesn't bite.  And a wonderful wife
prettier than all of you put together.  That smoker:  I can smoke hens until the
sweet meat melts in your mouth.  After you taste my beans you'll never be happy
with others.

Motel rates are reasonable.  This old village is a must see.  The people are all
friendly.  The music is pretty good.  (Bring your instruments!)  This Fall, which is
begging to get in the door right now, turns us into the most beautiful colors
you may ever see.  It's the Ozarks, dang it.

I ain't too mean.

We have flushing toilets.

Y'all come on.  Talk it up here.  Let's find a weekend we can boogie.  Soon.

Oh!  Don't forget that our horseshoe pits are the very finest in Arkansas.

No it has not. Spoke with Seth just tonight.

The problem is his web provider bombed big-time. The show will go on.

I'll see all of you (who go) there!
