Enough already..... - The Firearms Forum

I've had enough of this cold weather stuff. Recently the cold, snow, and ice have cancelled two local matches. Oh Mr. August please hurry up. Bring on the heat.

I'm in desperate need of a fix, you know a timer going "Beeeeep", then your brain going to mush. I'm sick of dry fire drills and living room mag changes.

You guys up north stop blowing this way. You guys down south, send us some of your air. Thank you

I won't say anything about the 60's we had last weekend.

They had the all "qualifier" that was cancelled last Nov.

The steel match for next Sunday looks like it will be in the 40's.
Does that help?

Pickenup,

Point some of that stuff eastward........Please

It's 61° down here right now.

It will be 72 here tomorrow.

Sunday the temp was 51 but the wind chill from the North was 28. Same on Monday when I had planned to shoot. I hate when cold weather interupts my range sessions. But warmer weather is not far off and the matches will resume soon. Back home I could shoot an indoor match in cold weather. Oh,well.

Suppose to be 60 degrees here tomorrow but then back down to 15 degrees with moderate winds the following night. Thats rediculous.

North Carolina.....the only State where you run your heat and a/c in the same daggum day.

And you guessed it, this Sunday is a match day, weather man says it will be cold and windy with a possible chance of rain, frezzing rain, sleet, or snow. Talk about leaving it wide open.

'Course it could be worse, at least I am south of the Mason Dixon

Am sending some east. Don't know if it will make it all the way, but...hey, I tried.

Still lookin to be in the 40's for Sunday. Possible chance of snow.
If so, we can always shoot inside. No steel, but will burn some powder.
