The target frame on the left did fall down. I don't know when, but it was down this morning.

I was there this morning but there was no shooting because of the fishing derby. I strongly disagree but that's the policy. The shot up frame was removed and the plan is to remove the rest and make/install new ones like the ones at the 200/300. No date was set but it sounded like the range would be closed on that Sunday.
should we may be consider moving it to a different sunday, as it seems it will be a non-stop rain all weekend?

It's a bit confusing. What's the exact plan. Are we replacing the shot up frame or replacing all the frames with ones like at the 200/300 that don't require fasteners or tools to replace the plywood.
There is also another route from the Littleton side. Sanderson / Oak Hill / Old Littleton / Old Schoolhouse / Littleton county. That road also is not a buggy path like Littleton county and Whitcomb
The goal is to replace the frames entirely with new, all the frames, I'll bring my auger for setting posts. currently the 100 is broken as anyone can attest.
The sawmill crew cranked out the lumber required at last report.
Confirmed that I will be there on Sunday at 7 am to lend two hands.

So the plan is this Sunday the 30th?
Indeed, its only supposed to be sprinkles. We could set up jumbo tarp if needed

Yeah. It's supposed to rain but the weather changes every day making outdoor plans pretty difficult. I'll be there.
If the weather is super cold and crappy, we can also use the time to build the frames in the truck bay, then carry them down to the range if the weather gets better or the sunday following. Almost looks like its going to snow! Just have to keep folks from using the frames as a clay pigeon rack.

Keeping people from using the frame to hold clay birds? Good luck with that. Stupidity is boundless.

Whitcomb Ave was open today and will likely be open tomorrow. It will probably be closed the next day they work. That day could be Monday, depending on the weather.

Spent the morning with a bunch of other members building and installing (3) 12 foot target frames at the 100. We'll see how long it takes for some nitwit to use the frames to hold clay birds or staple targets to.

So far so good. The 100 isn't shot to shit yet and Whitcomb Ave will be closed all week and into next week according to the police detail.
Is the one plate still up now? Also a larger silhouette would be cool. Maybe help newer shooters build confidence vs maybe missing that small play and hitting the hanger

Yes, it's still up and I was told a second is planned.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't a Silhouette Target illegal in this shite hole of a state?

In some cases yes but no one at HSC seems to pay any attention to that nonsense.
What!!!! That’s insane hahaha. Fine call it a competition size target.
Doing it while it's open could be exciting
Yes!
i believe - only for clubs that are LTC holders, to be able to store guns on site.
This, and there’s only a couple clubs in MA that have an LTC.
