State Laws to be aware of: Your rifle must be locked unloaded in your trunk or other secured container. Handguns may be possessed ONLY with a Massachusetts Class A License To Carry with either "None" or "All Lawful Purposes" for Reason for Issuance. - if you're from out of state, you need a MA non-resident LTC. MA has NO reciprocity with any other state. No "assault weapons" - we still have an AWB that is the same thing as the old Federal AWB. ARs cannot have a flash hider, collapsible stock or a bayonet lug unless they are "pre-ban." High capacity magazines must be pre-ban as well. Non-residents CANNOT purchase ammo in this state. They have to bring it with them... or go to New Hampshire overnight. Check other State Laws.

Misc: What better place to be a Rifleman? A stone's throw from Lexington and Concord. See the re-enactments at dawn. Walk the Old North Bridge by sunset. Eat dinner across the street from Sam Whittemore's position.

We shoot a lot. Bring 1000 rounds+ If you bring less, that's fine, just pace yourself over the weekend.

No more sweaty appleseeds for 2010. Who's coming?

Make note, Sunday Nov 28th is a one day Appleseed. We present all the info from the usual two-day in one day. Ditch the three-day-old leftovers and get your rifle on.

I'm seriously considering this. Im nervous however as I do suck with a rifle. Even 50 yards is a stretch. I use a GSG ak-22.
 
The other shooters will be so focused on their own targets they won't be noticing yours.

Just come down and get better.
 
Jay D - if you shoot like your avatar picture then yes, come down and get some skills - what you do with them after that is up to you. Crak is right, folks there don't care about any target but their own...
 
I really should. I love shooting pistols but with rifles I am atrocious. I really do need some good instruction.
 
Oh yeah I have no problem giving myself up to a higher power. Only way to learn. Find someone who knows more and pick their brain or have them show you. Then practice your ass off. I'm only 22. I have time ;) I'll have a child to teach someday haha
 
I plan on attending with my son. I have a 10/22 with sling, and I plan to borrow a friend's 10/22 for me, but it doesn't have a sling. I know the use of the sling is an important part of the training, can I still participate with a rifle without a sling? Thanks for your insight!
 
Thanks dwarven1! I'll offer to buy him the hardware and sling to see if he wants to install it prior to the event.
Thanks again!
 
crak,

I graduate on Nov 18th, I should be be able to come out on the 28th, I still have that orange hat in my ditty bag somewhere.
