Sounds good. Maybe we can find the most central meeting place to the majority of the Florida Glockers. Glocks, BBQ, and family, sounds like a good time.:wavey:

 

[rvrctyrngr]

Central-ish, FL? Maybe one of the state parks just south of I-4 (Sebastian area)?

 

[boarhunter]

A state park maybe good, but what about if we do firearm trading of bring guns and parts and ect to trade or swap...How would be the state park laws affect us. to do it legal....any thought.. Thanks JohnB

There's a public range in the Ocala National Forest.

Never been there...but I've heard mixed things about it.

 

[CableRouter]

There is another one in Lakeland, http://www.tenoroc.us/ if that is more central to the group.

Some people love it and some hate it. I've been there a number of times and attended a sigforum shoot there. The locals seem to get pretty pissed off about a large group of people there.

I would probably be game for a meet and greet if it wasn't too far away from me.

I would be interested also if it's in the Central Florida area. Is this still in the works?

 

[leroyjq]

It sounds good to me also.....I live in the New Smyrna Beach area.

 

[Immortal Theory]

I'm down for it as well... I live in Miami but I wouldnt mind driving up to central florida!

After looking at the list of outdoor ranges in the state, I think this is the best facility and the most central to everybody. Between Tampa and Orlando, and central to Jacksonville and Naples/Ft.Laud.

I like it. We ought to consider a date, something like Saturday, November 8th. Gives everyone plenty of time to stock up and prepare.

If this starts getting some traction, I'll ask one of the mods to sticky this where more Floridians will see it.

Saddle Creek might be a better choice, it is close to tenoroc and they have a picnic area. We could do some kind of lunch then go cook some rounds off @ the range. Price wise it is cheaper 5 dollars vs. 10 (hey every penny counts nowadays) I can talk to one of the RO there Bob he seems pretty cool and I have never had any issues, well not including the armadillo that like to cross the range while its hot.

Actually that looks quite nice.

 

[PBCounty]

I'd be in.

 

[rvrctyrngr]

I'd be up for it. Never knew that place existed. I know about Tenoroc and SouthernExposure, but not this place. Looks cool. About 3 hrs for me (from NE FL).
