The Mojave!

[golfish]

Desert BLM land is closed as of the 10th. Only Imperial County is open (and hot).

I know, that has got to suck for people who shoot on BLM land. Lucky for us, we shoot on private land.

Anybody notice once you get east of the Colorado river it's Mohave?

[BillyGoatCrawler]

I'll be in Mojave this sat, well around Barstow to be exact, but not to shoot, rather for a psytrance event lol.

Enjoy your drugs.

Oh, it was indeed a fantastic day in the Mojave. 65, maybe 70 degrees tops. No wind, just a very slight breeze. And no body but us! Perfect conditions. And, the .45's ruled the roost. Both Colt and acp. Had to locate to another area, as Cal-Trans[?] had some roads closed for some kind of construction. Weird. We got around it, North of Hwy 58 and did our thing. Great day of shooting. Very relaxing. But, no USAF airshow this time. Still, FUN!!

Glad to hear it, you guys. It was blowin' hard enough here near the coast to blow the arse through a snake.

Got my wheels and tires on, though. Gettin' old! and I'm a out of shape. These things weigh 93 lbs each, and there're five of them (full size spare, commown!)

Chris, lookin' good! It's ready. Getting to our old spot was a no go. From about a mile or so south of that, crews had both sides of the hwy all tore up, traffic was STOPPED dead heading north. We said screw it and went towards Fremont Pk and found a spot. For about 3-4 miles, they had all dirt roads closed off, both sides. We'll have to see about "our area" when the work is done.

Copy that! Tom. Thanks.

So you fellers ready to get right back out there and sling some more lead?

[golfish]

Yeah buddy, you would have needed those tires to get to where we went yesterday. Per BLM: we can shoot north of hwy 58, so the spot we were at yesterday is good to go but with the hwy down like it is, it's just too far or too long a wait. We drove from Krammer Junction to Barstow then home. It's a toss up if we go the 395 because we waited 45+ minutes due to construction.

Hey Tom, I'll call Rick tomorrow and order those boolits we were talking about yesterday...

Roger that Mark. I'll take 'em! Thanks.

How about that little plastic gun, pretty impressive isn't it.
It's not a 45 man stopper but it will sure get his attention

[pennstater]

That gizmo was pretty accurate! I would NOT want to be in front of it if you're firing at me. What a great day, yet again! The Mojave!

Its about time for another shoot in the Mojave. I wonder if our road is open now.

Tom, whats it been, about 2 months since weve been up there?

I've got some 30-30 loads to test out.

[pennstater]

Mark, I'm heading up to Burro Cyn this morning[Fri] about 9:00 am. At the rifle range. .357 and .45 Colt. And my spotting scope. Can you make it? Kinda last minute, but, it's all I got this week.

[glassparman]

Perfect. I have no interest in sitting in 3PM traffic on my way back.

Last time we hit the dirt, I had dinner in Mojave proper, simply to avoid metro freeway traffic. I would like to eat at that messican place round the corner from your house next week, though, but only if you and Tom go too.

I always have dinner in Mojave "Proper"!

Just south of town off Backus road
