It is better to keep ones mouth shut and be thought of as a fool than to open ones mouth and in so doing remove all doubt.

I hope I will be able to make it.  Bud gave me a invite no more than a week after joining the forum. I enjoy the forum, and want to meet the people behind it. Thanks to everyone for helping us new beeks out and being so friendly, and patient.

  Buzzbee is pretty spot on John, about 13 miles and 15 minutes or if you were driving what I was which Bud described as " a little shitcan car" probably a little longer.
He also tried to pull that one on me to carry into the roadside restaurant for lunch. The only licence I had was to drive in the US and inside was the local Sheriiff, his deputy, the highway patolman and the resident judge. Wasn't I glad that I politely refused his offer otherwise I would have been sitting in a pool of sweat the whole time while we ate. Sorry Bud if I spoil your party trick on someone else, only wish I was there for you to try me again.

aw, Geoff, you would have been fine.  pretty sure no one would have cared, and open carry is probably legal in MS anyway?

It's highly likely that my wife and I'll be there as well. I got the same thing online, said it was booked up. There's a marriot 30 miles north of macon. I'd rather stay with the crew.

My wife talked to them today. They said that their computer was dead and hoped to get another one this week. They didn't say but I wonder if that is why the E versions are showing booked up.

It's official - I just booked the flights, see you all at BUD6!!!

PS.... if you have any ammo to share, bring it along with your gun and let this newbee gun owner shoot a few rounds :)

And Bud, I'll be on  WEDNESDAY NIGHT (tonight) on Ventrilo, hope some others join in around 5-8pm I need to burn a little data and can't think of a better way!!!

BTW - my arrival is 12:15pm the 10th and departure I believe 12:40pm on Tuesday - we sure can catch up with everyone, that's a bunch of days.

Kathy, wondering if you are flying into Meridian? which day, we might have the same flight.

we are flying into Birmingham on Thursday and driving over.  The flight times were better and we could use southwest in case something went sideways.  + free luggage :-)

we probably won't see anyone until Friday, unless you all go to dinner Thursday night or something.  i'll pm you my cell number.

This is the south you'll have to be more specific or just say "Bring it all!"

Is there a place to shoot high power rifles? If so, I might bring one of my Russian cannons aka, Mosin Nagant, 7.62x54R or my AR15, ect

No Bud.., I ain't no good at nothing. I thought that Beemaster might enjoy shooting it. Him being from NJ I thought he might not have never seen one before. Yall don't have to worry 'bout me being a clown while we're shooting or holding a rifle.

..iron sights or scopes? I usually don't use no scopes.

Out of the folks coming to Bud's, who would be interested in trading some of your local honey.  I am willing to make straight trades, pound for pound with whoever might want some Southeast Texas honey for special occasions.

Seeing how this is my first year, the closest thing I have to honey is dead bees on the landing ;)

I would be willing next year.

As far as the Mosin Nagant, I've watched about a hundred Youtube Videos on it. Awesome historical piece that came just a hair too late into WII but had surplus that still allows it to be one of the finest era rifles at an incredible price.

Would love to see on and to shoot one. I have this dream in my head of shooting 50 different firearms in 50 minutes (Video captured for Youtube of course) might just be a record for a Jersey Fella!!!

However it works out, I mention this only because it is important - I can't shoot no shoulder busters, I have a severed shoulder rotator cuff muscle and don't want to lay myself up for the week. A few shots here and there, I'll deal with that, but I can't be banging out a mag or clip of anything in a row that's gonna be slamming my shoulder - besides that, no S&W 500 magnum please - lol. Although, I sure would love to fire one.

Gonna be good to see all I know and meet so many new members there. Thanks for the offer, and The Mosin may not be far from adding to my collection - I can have all the long guns I want :)
