Cavalier Gun Club bivouac
Of course Paul Cook was the first to arrive. He had already set up 1/4
acre of camouflage net when. I arrive Friday Morning. Wade and I just finished
installing the big block Chevy in the M-109 Shop Van the night before. .
Now before you purest vote to keel haul me for making a Hot Rod out of an
antique , I must say all of the changes are bolt on and It is a completely
reversible operation. We still had a few minor details to finish but we
needed a good test run. The next problem was building a mount for the air
compressor which is lubricated by engine oil pressure. The brakes are there,
they just need a boost. Any ideas are appreciated. Wade and Warren arrived
that afternoon and Warren dropped off his Gp medium tent. Wade brought both
his M-151 and Duce. The Board of Directors had voted to allow us total control
of the 500yd range and recommended we camp there. That allowed us to be
with in walking distance of the, hot most of the time, 300yd range. Like
we in the Military vehicle club would ever walk any where. That evening
before sun down we took our first trail ride, 400 acres and not one road,
so we stayed in the power line right of way, however we were not restricted.
With control of the range we could explore the impact zone about a mile
and ½ beyond the back stop. Nancy I am stopping here to test the
system if it works I’ll send the rest. Monday 11:15 am.
