So, who is bringing what?

Re: So, who is bringing what?

You mean you won't have it anyway- since it's your CCW and all?

The problem with that is if I actually need it I have to debate if it is worth shooting it at $1.50 / round

Re: So, who is bringing what?

Probably wont bring the desert eagle, there wasnt much interest in the DE last year.

Re: So, who is bringing what?

I'll probably bring the full auto mac-10 again, now with jamming issues (mostly) fixed. Including a suppressor for it and a suppressed 9mm pistol. And probably a neos sbr with 22 suppressor. Unless some forms come back early then i'll have something really cool.

Re: So, who is bringing what?

When do you think we'll know if the shoot is on Wednesday or Thursday?

Re: So, who is bringing what?

as before, the Shoot Shop will have ear protection (a big bin of inside-the-ear foam plugs) available to anyone who needs them. (last year they were even free, i believe, and i'm going to try to make that happen again this year, too. the free part, i mean. they'll be there no matter what, even though they might cost a buck or two)

I made use of those unfortunately too late, but yes thanks, without them I wouldn't have been able to stay. :-)

Re: So, who is bringing what?

I bought some earplugs with me that I used on my motorcycle, and they do a great job on the bike... but were borderline rubbish on the line. Time to invest when I am over in July.

Re: So, who is bringing what?

I realize that my toys are not in line with yours, however, I plan on bringing a straight jacket, bread board and a soldering iron. This could get interesting

Re: So, who is bringing what?

Ah yes, ear protection. I remember you having some tales of woe after last years shoot. How many days did that take to return to normal?

Ha, 3 -4 weeks. It sucked. Had the luck of seeing an ear doctor that was an army consultant; told me that some people can listen to boom, boom, boom, all day long and have no ill effects, others it only takes once. So I double up with plugs similar to these http://www.surefire.com/EP3-Sonic-Defenders and head phones. Haven't had any trouble since then. But it did ruin Defcon 19 for me. Lesson learned. :-) If you feel ear pain on the line, set your stuff down and walk away.

Not a huge fan of DIY holistic medicine, but I've read that loading up on magnesium prior to, or immediately post exposure http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8135325 can help mitigate damage. Also Lipo-Flavonoid.

Re: So, who is bringing what?

What am I bringing?

Neo: Guns. Lots of guns.

5.56 AR15, maybe something new in 6.8, 7.62, 6.5, or .458 if I could ever decide

and better hearing protection(cautionary tale). Anyone with a sound level meter, I would be interested to find out just how loud it is on the line.

Re: So, who is bringing what?

Shoot on Wednesday? I sure hope not.

Re: So, who is bringing what?

Hmmm, a Wednesday evening (pre-dusk-ish) event could be pretty friggin winsauce. Would certainly solve the "shoot or badge line" pickle for a lot of people, too. Thursday is getting more and more booked annually.

see the new poll thread here.

Re: So, who is bringing what?

It would eliminate the panic of grabbing the defcon registration/badges and then driving out to the shoot on Thursday morning, but for my (already commited) timeline this year, I wont be getting to the Rio until mid-afternoon on Wednesday. If it is Wednesday, could it start later or last longer? (All just thoughts and ideas, as I know nothing has been set in stone just yet)

Re: So, who is bringing what?

What are the possibilities of holding the shoot the DAY BEFORE defcon, like it used to be? Or better still, holding TWO Shoot events?

I'd like to second the idea of holding the shoot on Wednesday instead of Thursday! (I already plan to arrive on Tuesday.)
