as many know, im having an any gun any ga open fun shoot for anyone willing to join in, in oct and apr. every year.
but, there is more than just one weekend in apr and oct.
anyone here want to knock heads and gin up an interest in meeting at my place to have a real 16ga only event? just say the word and canvas your buddies for feedback and let me know.
lets pick a weekend that doesnt effect the most as far as hunting and holidays.
be glad to put something together for everyone.

I’d be interested in one in the Colorado Springs or Denver area. Moving to the former this May. |

DF, by "in MO" I think he's referring to his place in Missouri.
Bobski, That's kind of you to offer. April would be hard, maybe when I'm retired. October would be a no as that's prime grouse and pheasant and woodcock time here. Thanks for offering it up though. |

Yup, I understand.
Am moving to Colorado Springs in six weeks and was hoping there might be some 16 ga guys there and a shoot could be organized. |

Would be easier for me to hit this than St Paul now that I’m in Kentucky. April is turkey season so I’d rather see October. Where in Mo? |

I would go for that in April, October I'll be out west chasing after my two renegade GSP's. I'm a fellow Missourian (rural Neosho) and retired Navy light attack pilot. Flew A-4's in Vietnam off the Hancock and Bonnie Dick (Bonne Homme Richard), A-7's for my subsequent tours and a little flight time in a bunch of other planes. Be fun to buy you dinner and talk about the old days (1958 to 1991). |
