I'll try to make this quick...my first post, but have read hundreds or more. I have only OC'd once here in lexington-without incident. I'm originally from Bath Co., soOC there is nothing. What i would like to do is try to get a group who wants to do an OC outing here in Lexington-try to get the word out and prove that men and women who OC aren't scary!!! I'm heading off to work now-I'll check this thread tomorrow. I carry a Glock 23 in a Glock sport/combat holster, but am planning on getting a BlackHawk serpa...

I'm in! I've been waiting for this. I don't know why I just didn't start a thread like you did. I want to try the new Thai place in Regency center. Probably not the "safest" choice for a meet. Maybe BBQ would be better? I definitely want to do something local.

Also, isn't there a new shooting range in Lexington? This would be a good time to try it out. An after lunch shoot.

well..that's three. I haven't heard of a new range in Lex. The closest ones to Lexington are in Paris-(Bud's) and there's one in Wilmore-but you have to be a mamber to shoot there. Bud's in Paris is $10.00 per half hour. Let's just see how many we can get and then all decide on a place, date and time. Thanks for the responses thus far...

well, now that's four:cool: Maybe time to try to figure out peoples schedules, etc. I work nights, so weekdays would work if it was evening. My weekends, most of them are open for me-I do have occasional things come up-I'm married and have a daughter...so maybe post your schedule/preferences and we'll see what we can all agree on...Hopefully we can bring out more people-meet some new friends, etc...

Yeah, weekends are pretty good. Memorial Day weekend is probably bad, and I'm going to be gone in late June.

Also, I think it would be cool do do a Gorge outing sometime too. Or something like that.

The 16th would be pretty hard to do, but the 23rd would be great. It sounds like it would work for everyone else though, so don't let me hold anyone back.

Carry a Ruger 9mm.

It looks like our schedules are all over the board. How about the last Saturday in May-the 30th? How many could make that day? Also, if some can make it a different day than others, well I say just do it. And then later on all of us could possibly work out a date that would work for everyone. And I think it's a good idea to just meet first and maybe make it as simple as lunch at McDonald's , etc. Then plan a real outing to the Gorge, etc. I currently carry a Glock 23 (.40) in a Fobus holster.

I agree--a simple meetup sounds good--especially prior to a more major outing. Heck, we don't even know if we like each other yet, haha. May 30th works for me, btw.

Might be worth putting up a poll with dates. It's not possible to meet everyone's schedule, however. It would be nice to see a recurring meetup, on the same date, at different restaurants throughout Lexington and central KY.

That's a great idea. I'm new to this posting stuff-could you start a poll? Thanks!
