[GackMan]

I'm in the Portland area as well.

I'm an NRA instructor for basic pistol, personal protection, and I'm an NRA RSO. I used to teach quite a bit. I admit, I haven't been instructing much the last few years. Just friends, acquaintances, etc.

I've been a reserve police officer for 7 years. Military for 8 years active duty (nothing sexy) and 4 years in the guard/reserves.

I shoot the practical rifle matches at TCGC the second Saturday of every month. I've shot IPSC, 3-gun and some things like that.

Been to a couple handfuls of training classes. Did a little happy dance when Thunder Ranch moved to Oregon.

See you guys around.

I'm a normal Joe Schmoe civie shooter. Just picked up my first AR and dry fire endlessly on the days I have off. I am new to tactical carbine shooting, but have been shooting pistol for a few years. Currently saving the funds for ammo/training, and an optic sometime soon.

Mainly looking for like-minded shooters in the area to get together with and shoot. I have a local gravel pit that offers about 180 degrees of movement, up to about 60 yards. I do have a local-ish range up in Custer, that Magpul TCII will be at in April of next year. I have yet to check out the range, as it requires membership to shoot in, but I have heard good things about it.

Oh, I'm Chris, I live in Bellingham, WA, which is damn near Canada.

I live in the Seattle area and work as a police officer (patrol and SWAT). I’ve been shooting ARs for a while and enjoy training and working hard.

I also work for Insights Training Center where I am a primary instructor for Handgun and Rifle Courses.

Thanks for setting up the group. If anyone arranges a get together in the Seattle area, hopefully, I will be able to come out a shoot with you guys.

Thanks,
Jeff

I own several M4's " Two Olympic Arms". I can't seem to break them. A Stag and as of last week a Noveske which I really like. Other hobbies are white water rafting, Vintage Motocross and skiing.

Am a current LEO in WA State. Am a state certified firearms instructor in Pistol, Rifle, and Shotgun. Been teaching for over 16 years, and taught at the state LE academy in Seattle.

I live in south central WA, down along the gorge...but will travel to shoot with the group.

I met several of the guys here at the get together we had about a month ago or so. Was a good time, looking forward to doing it again soonly!

Hey, names Brian, I live in Puyallup, WA. Have only been training in practical shooting about a year and a half, have gone to a number of classes at Insights (the school Jeff works for) since then.

Would love to come out to a training session if it is within a reasonable distance. Doing drills with other people to compete against increases the benefit of practice and the fun of it.
