Tin can bashing on Sunday, 28th September.
Posted: Thu Sep 25, 2008 2:09 pm
Here's the list of confirmed and probable attendees. Please reconfirm whether you can make it or not by 8 p.m. on Saturday evening.
1) Inder (Confirmed)
2) Can Boy (Confirmed)
3) TenX (Confirmed)
4) Mo (Confirmed)
5) Iceman V (Confirmed)
6) Ranjeet (Confirmed)
7) Gasram Gandu (Confirmed)
8 ) Diskaon (Confirmed)
9) Mack The Knife (Confirmed)
If I have left anyone out, please pipe up.
Everyone brings his own air-rifle and pellets, a 2-litre bottle of water, some beer/soft drink cans and some snacks. I will get the tea but only have one flask. If we could have one or two more 1-ltre flasks of tea or coffee that would be nice. Can Boy, you will have to provide the tumblers. I will also bring along a small first-aid kit.
Safe gun handling: For those of you who think this a joking matter have a read through the points on http://www.huntingsociety.org/nevers.html
In addition to the points mentioned in the link, we will be running/walking/jogging/crawling (special section for Can Boy) with unloaded air-rifles. The air-rifles will only be loaded at the firing points. Please keep the muzzle pointing up or at the ground when you are not shooting. If your gun handling is found to be unsafe you have the option to pack-up and leave or pack-up and fume in the corner whilst we pelt you with rotten tomatoes. You will not be allowed to shoot and you may not be invited again.
The targets will be placed at any distance between 5 and 35 yards, so make sure your sights are zeroed and you know the trajectory. Time permitting we will have a short zero and trajectory check session at varying ranges. Use of range finders will not be permitted. Let's have some fun.
P.S.: Since I am participating you guys can forget about winning. The person to come last will have to go around picking up the cans after we are done shooting and if you're fast, we may even give you some tea.
