[VA_Dinger]

Anybody interested in a Vickers Tactical "Battle Rifle" class? Larry is interested in teaching one fall/winter 2007 or anytime in 2008. Right now it's down to a combination of Basic Handgun I & Battle Rifle or 2/3 day Pistol/Carbine & Basic Handgun I for South Hill (fall/winter2007). Please let me know because we are working on the fall/winter 2007 schedule at the moment. The “Battle Rifle” class could also be held any suitable range if somebody wants to host it.

I'd be there in a heartbeat. I'd also like to see a 3 day carbine/pistol.

Thanks

I'm leaning towards Battle Rifle & 2/3 day pistol & carbine for fall/winter 2007.

I will gladly sign up for a Battle rifle class. Anyone have a battle rifle I can borrow? I guess that I can borrow a garand from one of my buddies.

[Robb Jensen]

VERY interested!

I'd be most interested in a 2008 class, I'm pretty busy this year.

Yeah man I would love to attend a training class. It would be my first so not sure if i would qualify if there are pre req's for attending. And I assume an AR would be a suitable battle rifle right?
