BZ, have you not realized D Ez can multi-multi-task?
LOL
On my shooting table are 2 airguns and my laptop. Meeting and greeting folks, selling raffle tickets, shooting and taking pictures.
Joe, I'm working on it bro, sorry. Maybe I don't multi-task so well. HeeHee
Kim is getting ready to upload some photos. Tyler is taking some also, Pyramyd Air has requested some to post on social media. I'll try to post some tonight.
Wish you were here my friend. I will say I've had a few most excellent surprises since arriving here this year. One of the best was when my ol' buddy rocker1 walked around the corner!!!
Richard has a huge pot stirring with some Cajun food cooking. It smells fantastic.
Hmmm...will soon be multi-multi-multi-tasking holding a spoon and bowl also.

You're killing me, bro!! Tell everyone I said, "Hi!" I sure do miss being there.

I got to the fun shot around 11:30 in the morning. Shooting is great but the best part is meeting everyone.

Absolutely agree Daniel!!!

Joe, here's a few photos...

Just getting started setting up...

Setting up GTA HQ tent...

The shooting competition winners this year will receive trophies and gift certificates to PA.

Gene had the range reworked and opened up better this year!!!

Lotsa targets!!!

Lil' Sis, MrSis and Mr Melick talk airgun tech.

Cathy about to christen the SMG 22. She was really smiling after ripping through a belt of ammo.

Tent city going up...

Gene, Daniel and Richard under the big top.

We had another great event thanks to the support from the members and vendors.

Folks from all over...WI, TN, MI, IL, GA, VA, NY, LA and several from SC & NC. Oh, and some old coot that now calls FL home.

Firing line getting filled up...

Richard sorting a couple of raffle tickets.

We all know it's a waste (except to support GTA) because David (grumpy) always hauls everything home with him.

Some of the girls lounging on the deck.

Was fantastic to finally meet lizzy. Here she is being entertained by Ernie and Art of LexAir.

Tyler and Martin...

Daniel and Gabe.

See...shooting while maintaining the forum. LOL

Richard and Randy working on dinner!!! YUM, can you smell what Rich is cooking???

There's a few. Tomorrow should be a very active and busy day. More folks scheduled to show. Wish you ALL were here.
Maybe next year.
More photos coming!!!

Gertrude · « **Reply #165 on:** May 09, 2014, 11:56:02 PM »

WOW! look at all the fun going on there! Can you smell J E A L O U S from the left coast ?

So I'm kinda guessin' there's not a feathered or furry varmint wanderin' around within 10 miles of there !

Great pics, and keep 'em coming !

grumpy · « **Reply #166 on:** May 10, 2014, 12:36:41 AM »

Was so busy today sorting out guns and trying to get some trigger time just flat out didnt have time to snap pics. Tomorrow i hope to get a bunch.

amb5500c · « **Reply #167 on:** May 10, 2014, 12:59:54 AM »

Having a ball so far. Its great to renew old friendships and create new ones. Really missing you Joe (Jonnnyboy).
Richard

umpreacher · « **Reply #168 on:** May 10, 2014, 04:05:42 AM »

Jonnnyboy, wish you were here. Richard told me about your wife and I will be praying for her.
Also, never ever expect a Cajun to answer correctly the question: Is it hot and spicy??
They will automatically answer "NO, I just cook it to taste good."
But you better have plenty of water for the afterburn.

Rocker1 · « **Reply #169 on:** May 10, 2014, 06:35:44 AM »

Having a great time,lots of great friends heaps of guns and food and a Dez,lol! What more could you ask.

bubba zanetti · « **Reply #170 on:** May 10, 2014, 07:04:53 AM »

D ez, thanks for the pics and updates. I do truly hope to make one of these shoots sometime. Glad you all are having a blessed time

Also, since you do not need your beauty sleep and can multitask so well Dave, when I make a Fun Shoot you can pump up my .25 Marauder for me between shots

LOL!

As a side note, who makes that .22 SMG that Cathy is holding?

BZ

grumpy · « **Reply #171 on:** May 10, 2014, 07:07:55 AM »

Sure are having a blast so far !, pun intended

As Dez mentioned its great to see old and make new friends. I am sorry if I missed anyone so far. If so please feel free to come up and say Hi, I promise not to bite. As far as winning everything, well I don't know about that lol, but I try to do my part in supporting GTA, there is no more deserving site !!

A huge thank you to Gene, Dez, all the Misses an everyone else who helps to put on this most excellent event. Oh, and I cannot thank my own Misses for tolerating this bunch and driving us 17 hours straight through and putting up with me, she really is a trooper !

Dave

jonnnyboy · « **Reply #172 on:** May 10, 2014, 10:17:15 AM »

Wishin' I was there, too! It's great to see all you having a great time. Somebody take a big bite of whatever Richard is cooking there and think of me! Lol!

Rocker, it's good to see you there. You're missed, buddy.

Joe

I stopped by this morning and watched for a bit. One guy let me shoot his converted 2400 which was sweet. Hope they post the raffle numbers on line for the folks that can't be there during the drawings.
I want SOMETHING!

Shooter_AC · « **Reply #176 on:** May 10, 2014, 05:20:27 PM »

I heard there was a Sasquatch siting this morning at the fun shoot. Any truth to that... Amb550c?

Wow. I had an AWESOME time for the little bit that I was able to attend. Learned a lot about my own guns, and got to meet some really cool people. My wife wasn't feeling too good cause of the heat, and whatnot, so we had to duck out way earlier than planned to get on the road. 900 miles later, and here I'm home in Wisconsin. I apologize in advance that I didn't get to say good bye to everyone there. Or personally meet everyone.

Like I said. I had a great time, and so did my boy and my 7 year old daughter.

Thanks everyone.

Pat

This has been the best of the best GTA Fun Shoots ever. All the wives pitched in and did allot of work to make this all work right..

. All there male partners...

pitched in as well to set up and re set up targets and put up equipment etc. I want to personally thank Dave's wife. AKA Mrs Grumpy for a world class meal on Saturday. She sure knows how to cook and she sure knows how to cook for a bunch of hullegan air gun addicts..

Cathy my wife had southern biscuits, sausage and gravy with eggs both mornings. So all of you who know me now know why I am so big...

She is one dang good cook too.

I also want to thank all who participated in this event for your support of the GTA. Dez, aka Ezman604, aka Dez Is one heck of an organizer and leader. Richard, aka amb5500c, cooked us all one of his family recipes of for Friday's dinner. Man was that great stuff..

Everyone loved it.

All in all it was a total blast of non stop air gunning and eating..

We did have a voyeur looking in on me when I would go in the restroom...

I had to put my dog outside the door to guard the door while I did my business after they busted in on me...

Anyways we will be having allot more pictures and many monthly raffles to come. So keep on supporting the GTA. It is your forum.

Gene
