Default Los Angeles Clay Shooting, anyone?

Hey all-

Not sure if this has ever been asked but I am probably gonna be going clay shooting this Saturday at Triple B's in El Monte (right off the 60 freeway in the 626 area code) and was wodnering if anyone wants to join me.

If some people go, one person can share my shotgun (12 gauge Berette Urika semi-auto) with me but thats about it as I don't want my gun doing all the work.

It's a ton of fun and not that expensive either.

If anyone is interested, feel free to reply witha post of PM.

Mark

$40 will get you 100 clays

$5 for a box of 25 12 gauge shells.


You typically want to buy an extra box of shells for the clays you will end-up missing because if you only get 100 shells for 100 clays, that means you are going to need 100% accuracy on each clay thrown which means one shot one kill and that ain't gonna happen. lol

There is no entrance fee. Just money for the clays and money for the shells.

The place is very professional yet relaxed and many people have gone there throughout the years.

Not a dumb question at all: these aren't golf clubs or baseballs bats you messin with, after all.

$15 to rent a gun all day. Semi-autos have less recoil and can typically hold one more shell than an over-and-under.

The premiere placein L.A. County is Oak Tree Gun Club which is just north of L.A.

Supposed to eb very scenic with lots of nature and stuff. They have rivers\streams (I think) cliffs, stations on the sides of mountains. They also have a pistol range and apparently, many actors and actresses shoot there also.

Maxim interviewed Rosario Dawson there (she's enough of a reason to go, by herself).

But since it is THE place to go for shooting, I think the cost will reflect that so thats why I am looking at Triple B's.

So do you guys think you might be able to do it this weekend?

Not sure if these are the pics you looked at but if not, here are some pics of the courses. The girls on the fron page are the girls that work the counter. There are 3 nice-looking ones that work there. one wasn't in the picture at the time.

For the most part, I think they don't care too much about the sport, it's just a job but they have shot before and I think they enjoy it.

The two girls in the front row are the two lookers at the site. The one on the left is cute and short and below the waist she is amazing. The girl on the right looks better, has a nicer chest but doesn't really have any ***.

Wow, I really went off on a different tangent there.

Ted, I'm not sure if we have ever met but I was just about to be a member of TT but never paid my dues.

I am a friend of Vince. I have a blue Z also.
