Yep, this is the official announcement.
And this thread will be the official thread reguarding information for the 2010 Grand Muster.

Seeing how my transfer from the Fleet Marine Force to the Grand Army of the Frontier is now official, I will have to make it to the fall campaign out in Tejas next year!

Note to self;
Shoot single shot category, not Mil-spec repeater.

(Inside joke for '09 participants)

Is It firm on Lockhart for next year's Muster? I was under the impression that next year would be the Dallas area. Lockhart ain't that close to Dallas. It's closer to Austin or San Antonio. Lockhart does have purty good BBQ.

TEXAS ....... All Right

I'm interested in where and when this will occur so I can get it on my calendar. I sure hope it's not on a date in October that I always have an annual Boy Scout function. I really want to attend a Grand Muster. Once the particulars are known I'll start working on some folks to attend.

The Boy Scout Venture Crew 1872 that I work with does the US 4th cavalry dismounted and has a battery of 4 Mountain Howitzers, maybe we could work in some artillery.

Yeeeeeee Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaw !!!!!!!

I want an Model 1866 Brass Gatling gun in 45/70 to mow down those targets.

I understand it is to be in November, and at least one artillery piece will be there. Huzzah!

Oh, I forgot they have recently added a gatling gun but it is still being worked on and I have not seen it in person yet.

November would be GREAT!! Make sure it's not the first weekend in November because that will be the date of the SASS Southwest Regional at the Bar-3 in English Texas. We certainly don't want to conflict with that.

Let's see if I can figure out how to post some photos. If this works these are 3 photos from our artillery salute on Memorial Day. We only used 3 of the howitzers, I'm commanding the battery.

Ok it did not work the first time, let's see if I need to post each photo seperate.

Cowtown Scout · « **Reply #12 on:** October 15, 2009, 07:33:14 PM »

The first photo was preparing to fire. This photo is firing from left to right one piece at a time in sequence.

Cowtown Scout · « **Reply #13 on:** October 15, 2009, 07:35:35 PM »

We have now completed the salute and turned to face the audiance.

Charles Isaac · « **Reply #14 on:** October 15, 2009, 08:48:37 PM »

Well, it looks like we got plenty of fire support for the main assault portion.

I think there's already going to be a cannon (bronze Napoleon?) there.

You'll have to excuse my ignorance of Texas geography. I was under the impression that it was south of Dallas.(Which it is, but considerably farther south than I thought)

Pitspitr,

Lockhart is about 3 1/2 hrs South of Dallas, thats just down the road around here. About 15 1/2 hours from your house.

GREAT that makes it the weekend after the Southwest Regional !!!!! It will go on my calendar and I will start spreading the news. I had the pleasure of shooting at Plum Creek last year when they hosted our Texas State Rifle Association Cowboy Action State Shoot. It's a Great facility. Everyone should enjoy it.

Yep everthing is BIG in TEXAS. and as you can see in the post from Texas Sarge we tend to talk of travel in driving time instead of miles.
