Sort of like a car guy has to go to Barrett Jackson, a Muslim has to go to Mecca, a gun guy has to go to Knob Creek, KY.

I always say I will go and then at the last minute realize that I will do horrible damage to my bank account if I do. I will make it down there at some point though. That's for sure.

That was great, a trip to Knob Creek has just been added to my to do list.

I'm pumped. I am going to the range later.
Ruger 10/22 will be on FIRE.

I live about 20 miles from Knob Creek. The shoot weekend is an adventure.

I shot the pistol match last year and will likely add the match this year. The pistol match was fun.

Be prepared to walk. The parking "luck of the draw" can put you 20+ minutes walk from the entry point. There are mule shuttles that will transport you.

It's fun but I will say if I lived much further away, I wouldn't go. I spent 20 years on active duty so the alure of auto fire isn't that great for me. I do think the rent-a-flamethrower thing is pretty cool.

Must be nice and if I went, extremely expensive.
