disabled and need help

[RedMonkey]

Yeah, I was reading this too. There's no SKU on the roster so I'm not sure how to determine what is and what isn't.

I was told they can tell by the SN. Don't hold me to that though.

Quick update.

Fundraiser: as of 2200 on Tues. 02-26 we're at $1350 smackaroonis

Pistol: kevrok805's moving in a new direction (I think he's got an itch to scratch) and is going for .40 cal Glock 22 or 23 instead of the G19 we were after at first.

I had this question as well. It looks like there is an exemption for physically disabled individuals:

"The HSC program also provides for an exemption when physical disability deprives an individual the necessary agility to execute the demonstration. A signed, written letter from a licensed physician attesting that a physical disability precludes an individual from being able to perform the safe handling demonstration is required for this exemption. This exemption applies to the safe handling demonstration only. There is no exemption from the Handgun Safety Certificate requirement based on physical disability"

So Kevin, you will also need a written letter from a physician.

This is interesting, thanks for snooping that out rackem.

[Cactus_Tim]

Nice!

We appear to be stalled just $150 short of the goal. Come on team help push this over the finish line!

Note: This is a copy/paste from the thread in the regional section. Since this is an important goal we are chasing I want to get more exposure by the double post.

Super stoked my friends! Hit up IVE today with Ready_eSeVe and snatched up that Glock 22! She's a beauty! Still overwhelmed by the people here. Gotta wait my 10 days and still meet up with Baboosh when the equipment comes in and then we will set up a shoot 'n' Que very soon. Keep you all posted! One Love!

I love the g22! It's my favorite out of my father's guns!
Glad you got something you can enjoy.

Wish I was out in your area so I could go shooting with y'all.

Crossposted from the donation thread:

So we're exactly at 95% of the goal I'd originally set.
I feel comfortable saying that at this point "we're good", meaning if we don't raise anything else we'll be able to do all the things we set out to. A couple of items on the original wishlist have been graciously donated and therefore lowered the "out of pocket" costs I originally projected into the $1500 total.
I don't want to discourage anybody who still wants to contribute (There were people contacting me telling me they could donate at a later time).
I'm thinking to leave the fundraiser open through Friday for those just tuning in or those who had to wait till payday.

With that said, basically, WE DID IT CALGUNNERS!

I'll keep post #3 updated w/ an accounting of how much was collected and how funds were used. Anybody who donated and wants any detailed info, please feel free to pm me.

I'm not sure that I'm taking the lead on the shoot but I'll keep everyone posted about the meet n' greet as details become available.
From my convo's w/ kevrok805, I get the feeling the meet n' greet is crucially important to him. He's really grateful and appreciative and would love to say thanks in person.

Also, I just have to say that this whole effort has been great. I find myself laughing and smiling when I think of it. It was like a living breathing thing and it came together so nicely and in mind that's a reflection of the spirits of all involved.

Can you guys bring me quickly up to speed on .40S&W?
What's a standard load, 165 or 180 grain?
What kinda prices/availability am I looking for?
Looking to get $200-250 worth of ammo for the OP.
If somebody wants to sell some at a fair price, pm me please.

Also, to the inquiries of caliber for donation etc, it's official:
Kevrok805 can use .40S&W and 20 gauge shotshells.

[NoNOS67]

155, 165 , and 180gr are all fairly common. I load my own, so I can't really comment on current prices or availability. Seem to remember seeing it for around $15/bx pre-panic, but not 100% on that.

[bodger]

I just got 500 rounds of 180 gr FMJ .40 from a place called TargetSports USA. Paid about $20 per 50 rounds including shipping. If I recall, it was backordered for about two weeks before it shipped though.

SET IT UP!
