survivalshop Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 With a potential Tropical storm off our coast , plans are all on hold . It looks like it will stay off the coast far enough & I'm personally sending it to DC <thumbsup> , so we should just get high waves , wind & rain .

shepp Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 We always go to my towns parade on the fourth, not sure when fire works are (fri night or Sunday night). Saturday I've got a kickball tournament and Sunday will probably be a recovery day. I really need to get some trigger time in soon!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gnatshooter Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 No plans for the 4th, growing up, my family never did anything and especially not go to see the fireworks. My dad said it just sounded like Iwo Jima (WWII) on a slow day. And my mom survived fleeing ahead of the advancing Russian front through Prussia and East Germany (WWII), so she wasn't a big fan of fireworks, either.

jtallen83 Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 (edited) Spending it at my home away from home in Houston, MS. Looks like cool mornings over the holiday weekend so I'll be on the range by 5:30 AM testing out the 4 different loads I bought from Freedom Munitions to see what the AR-10 likes best and then blowing of some ball I have along. I'll spend the hot parts of the day putting all the parts of a new rifle together. Can't think of a better way to celebrate freedom than putting an AR-15 together! I'll post the results on the ammo.........175 gr match, 155 gr BTHP, 168 and 155 gr. A-max. All re-manufactured stuff.

392heminut Posted July 2, 2014 Report Share Posted July 2, 2014 Nothing planned as of yet. Probably do some grilling on the 4th and then go watch the Chamber of Commerce fireworks show, watch THEIR money go up in smoke! Saturday I plan on shooting a USPSA match in Las Cruces.

204 AR Posted July 2, 2014 Report Share Posted July 2, 2014 My family and I are meeting up with a buddy and his wife to shoot some pdogs and have a good time! Going to get to try out the 260 I just put together with a dpms 24" barrel. It's turning out to be a tack driver so hope to get some long range dogs!
