It is the 3rd Saturday of the month, unless there is a BIG function out of town. This month, it would have been on the 16th, HOWEVER, Gunstock is on the 15th-17th so go to Gunstock in Waco since that's where the vast majority of the CenTex Krew (and DFW, and Houston Krews) will be. Really, you don't want to miss Gunstock.The location varies from month to month to keep things interesting and to make travel more equitable for everyone over the course of time. Keep your eyes open here on the Texas Hometown board. MrsGloftoe (aka "The Den Mother"  ) will post a thread a week or so in advance that will give the time and place. Just stay tuned, you can't miss it.Remember, 3rd Saturday of the month same as the SAXET gun show. EVERYONE and their family is invited. Did I mention you should come to Gunstock???

Welcome! Yeah, the monthly CenTex dinner will be held at Gunstock, since it coincides with our CenTex dinner dates. But the wife-unit does try and coordinate our monthly get-to-gethers, and we hope to see you at some! |

Unless you want to play for matchsticks and pennies, it would be cheaper for me to just start an allotment. I can't play poker for shit.

I appreciate the invite, unfortunately I'm not sure how realistic it will be for us to attend the get-togethers since we're at the show working. However, if the gatherings are after show hours we may be able to attend upon occasion. I know for a fact that we will not be at Gunstock this year since it books against the Austin show, and well... a guy's gotta make a living. I'll keep my eyes open for the next get-together announcement and perhaps if the timings right we can make it out. Scott |

We have a web page that's under construction. We're trying to get everything on it up and running but we stay pretty busy in the shop and unfortunately it's fallen down the priority list a bit. We decided that getting product in and trying to keep things in inventory was higher up the list than getting the webpage up. We're all up for being on pretty much any list... provided it's not a sh1t list. |

Yup, that would be us. We also carry Bushmaster, DPMS, EOTech, Trijicon, ARMS, Knights, Surefire, GG&G, YHM, Aimpoint, Vltor, Leupold, PRi, Tango Down, Magpul, etc... I'm starting to sound like a commercial, I promise I'll shut up. Thanks for the warm welcome guy's...and gals if that applies to anyone here. |

Im in Cedar Park.Lived in austin before ,but bought a home here.In cedar chooperville lol.We need to meet up for a weekend shoot.Im in.I think it would be great fun to meet up with ya'll and shoot the shit or shoot the shit out of it.I must admit my favorite range here in central texas.Hands down is the Austin Skeet and Riffle Range.Stan the older guy/owner is cool..Free targets to shoot very laxed gun range.And to be quite honest the people that shoot there are polite and friendly. You can't beat that with a stick.See ya there soon.Im going this weekend on Saturday possible Sunday too .After I hit Saxet Gun show..My name is Bill.I started this forum.And if youre there this weekend I will say hello to ya.Shooting my ar 15 is always a pleasure.Unfortunatley I work and can only shoot on the weekends.Hey bring a shot gun lets shoot some skeet too...I love shooting it with a short barrel and pistol grip .That is alot of fun and actually I hit alot of skeet 7/8 shot with this set up. A challenge is alot of funHERE....

You do know that y'all are invited to come shoot any of our matches anytime? We put on an IDPA match on the 3rd Sunday of every month. We also put on a Carbine match every 4th Saturday of the month. Both matches are at the Hays county Range.
We have a great group of shooters of all ages and skill levels. The emphasis of these matches is fun, comaraderie, skill building and fun friendly competition. Come out and give it a shot. I guarantee you will have a great time! Check out our website for maps, directions and more info on Texas Tactical. You can also sign up for our newsletter to keep you abreast of local shooting opportunities. mywebpage.netscape.com/texastactical/tx.html Hope to see some of you out soon.  P.S. We will be starting our Night/Lowlight shoots at the end of October. |

Why would you buy a laser? Not trying to offend you or anything, but I don't think you'll find anyone recommending a laser for a combat weapon. Yes, they're neat toys, but for the price you're talking about, I think you'd find most people would buy a nice Aimpoint or Eotech. Much more useful than a laser. |

Well I returned that junk.Got a streamlight m6 with tac/laser combo.They didn't have any sure fire products except the flashlight at the show.But I think I done well with this setup.Lasers are cool for night time shooting.And the light that comes in this bundle is very bright.I also winded up buying a red dot by ZOS.All and all im happy..
Latest edition Which the zos has been retired for a eotech 552 rev f |

South Austin here near Barton Skyway and Mopac (soon to be a damned toll road I'm afraid).

Yeah what is up with toll roads that were already paid for thru taxes............???Isnt it bad enough gas prices are high property taxes and all.And to top it off the people that work here have taken a drop in pay..Damn it cost me alot in gas/property.Chevy pick up and then they want to charge me to drive roads that have been paid for.Well either this area needs to bring more bussiness grow other then the high tech slacky jobs<slaky I mean if your working your very fortunate>and raise the pay of current jobs or their will be alot of people moving back out of austin. As fast as they move in.If they put tolls on the roads...It will affect all areas of our economy in austin which aint good now.Lets make it worse.Isint it bad enough things are over priced.Lets just make it worse for our neighbors.Great plan they have ,all it amounts to is dollars for them less for you.Contact your local tree hugger and ring his or her neck. Austin wont allow any other bussiness then the high slack tech...In fact they turned down alot of factories/drug companines.Its time for austin to grow if we want to survive.Beleive it or not this is why other cities do well and ours is in a record decline...Diversified work force keeps the ball in motion.
