It is an excellent range, Drydock. The Blue River Regulators have done a lot of work to make it really nice. Plus there's plenty of shade when it's hot. The satellite pic doesn't show it but the Regulators have a nice little western town(fronts) springing up there. Hope to see you all there.

Dumb question, but I assume this will be the "main" era, 1865-1900 only, and no Expansion Era weapons/uniforms allowed?  Just want to make sure before I stock up on ammo!  Thanks.

CPL Jayhawker Jake, you have assumed correctly. There will be no expansion era match this year. Hope to see you there.

Thanks.  Assuming nothing pops up preventing me from making it, I'll be there.  Just gotta scrounge up the .30-40 Krag brass!

Just a heads up, if you're planning on attending Saturday, it may be wise to bring a pair of overboots as we had had plenty of rain and maybe more to come. our range tends to get a little soggy in some areas and I wouldn't want to see anyone have to walk around in wet shoes or boots all day.
