Hey there! I am looking for someone that has a free seat, I´ll be staying overnight for the camping if that makes a difference. Obviously I would help with the gas.Comment

Hey, this is my first Defcon and I just saw this page for Defcon Shoot which looks like a great way to kick off the events! I'm arriving at LAS around 2:30pm on Wednesday and am staying at Bally's (also first time in Vegas). I would love to get a ride back and forth with someone on Wednesday, I'd be happy to split the costs for the ride and/or share some ammo and guns (Glock and Kimber- both 9mm).Comment

just to remind everyone, we are at a NEW LOCATION this year because of the fire warnings out in the BLM land. we will be at Clark County Shooting Complex.
see the new Directions Page for details.
one benefit is that it's so close to the city (just up north, take Decatur out of town basically) that Ubers and cabs will take you there, pick you up, etc. i did that ride twice today. not bad at all."I'll admit I had an OiNK account and frequented it quite often… What made OiNK a great place was that it was like the world's greatest record store… iTunes kind of feels like Sam Goody to me. I don't feel cool when I go there. I'm tired of seeing John Mayer's face pop up. I feel like I'm being hustled when I visit there, and I don't think their product is that great. DRM, low bit rate, etc... OiNK it existed because it filled a void of what people want."

yes, i'm so glad it'll be easier to get to. hotter location, but more accessible."I'll admit I had an OiNK account and frequented it quite often… What made OiNK a great place was that it was like the world's greatest record store… iTunes kind of feels like Sam Goody to me.

to everyone who is praising/thanking me... honestly, direct all that to:
1. Quiet - without him and his forum post we'd never have known and the event would have been fucked in the ass, total money loss, etc
2. Merlin - my best local out here in terms of knowledge of the region, advice on where to turn, etc
3. seeess - #3 on the list but #1 in terms of getting shit done. for real, people, i was at HOPE where i spoke 3 times and ran all kinds of shit and then i was basically in the air for 48 hours (to Montana, repack, sleep a few hours, then flights to Vegas as soon as i could get out here) and during that time he was a monster of research. we both made calls and emails to some new options, but it was seeess who really did the heavy lifting and laid the groundwork so i could simply just follow-up with places. he contacted local officials about the fire warning, permit process, etc. he and i triaged options of local other ranges, ultimately with him putting a temporary reservation on the spot where we decided to wind up. he and the others deserve all the credit. i'm just a guy who throws money at the problem and is trying to rent some big-ass cooling fans.

I'll be arriving in vegas Sunday and hanging around for a few days. Probably trying to get some ammo runs in before Wednesday. Then looking at an uber/taxi. If anyone wants to tag along on any of this let me know and we can meet up. This is my first DC shoot!
Thanks to all that put this together!Comment
