Lol I remember those guys. I think they were Sharons friends (imagine that...) Man that was a long time ago.

Very nice,

Those pic's bring back precious memories from FSN past...

The E-Z Board era right into the NEW FSN board...

Trail Glades Gun Range and Pop Dean's Gun range...

yes >> I know Vinnie was, I can't remember his name off hand ( and I usually could, I think it had something to do with Resident Evil ) ?? ) , Moe I know he e-mailed you asking to be removed from FSN if that helps ?? :-k , it was after a big argument in the Political Section where he usually participated the most, you wouldn't have guessed it from the break dancing pants, Velcro shoes and the monster truck T-shirt he usually wore, but he knew firearms and was a smart guy, kind of a savant [smilie=011.gif]

and yes they were friends with Sharon
In the days of the old west a 6 shooter was as common as cell phones are today and just annoying if they go off in a theater.

Sorry to sidetrack but...

Moe, the trailer in the background...is that the one that later burned? I met Sharon just after the fire.

There were a couple of trailers out there. From the position of that one on the side of the firing line I don't think it's the one Sharon lived in. Her's was in back of the line.

This is the first -'m seeing this.. Glockpacker was a great guy. Always had some helpful advice for me as a young and inexperanced shooter. I hoped in a few years he could help me get into some distance stuff.

Sad day. He and all he held dear will be in my prayers.

RIP Eric. I was at his condo just before he left. I went to pick up the .308 Armalite upper I bought from him and we ended up talking for nearly an hour. Very cool guy indeed.

Sad news. I never met Eric, but always enjoyed his contribution to FSN. It sounds like he knew and was with family when his time came. That's what mattered .. RIP Eric ..

One of those nutters had a dummy rifle grenade. He fired it from a rife and it went about 15 feet. Good times. I never went back to the range after Katrina hit.
