First off I must apologize for my Epic Failure. I forgot everything.:banghead:
It was all in my laptop bag next to the door ready to go a day in advance. :banghead:
My wife cleaned the house and put my laptop bag away. Out of sight, out of mind. :banghead:
And to make matters worse my pictures are all blurry. :cuss:


Otherwise we had a nice night.:) I was great to see everyone there.

Hey everyone, I'm new to the forum, but I'm the guy in that pic all the way to the left and the guy next to me is my dad. My name is Rob and I play bass in a band with SQLtables and we belong to the Midland County Sportsmans club. He's been working on me for a while about open carrying. It wasmy first time at an open carry meeting and both my dad and I are now interested. Thank you to everyone for coming to Midland. We had a great time at our range too...I think we ended being out until 1 am. LOL. More talking than shooting went on I think. Oh viper add one more to that count of those carrying...there's an XD on my right hip there somewhere...

Welcome to OCDO XDBassist. Hopefully, you can get your father to register here as well.

Welcome!

Everyone: do not underestimate him just because he's a bass player :p

I had a good time at dinner and the range. It was nice to meet some new people. The turnout was better than I originally expected, so that's good.

I heard some interest in a lunch/dinner in Saginaw, so I'll be working on that in the near future. If anybody has any suggestions for a date and/or venue, let me know.

Q. How do you know when a bass player is at the door trying to get in?
A. He keeps fumbling around trying to find the right key. ***

Place: not sure.

But... I'll have a holster for my pistol and will OC for the first time.

A. Only one but he gets 3 credits and $1,000 for doing it.
