Old Fort Gun Club Van Buren Arkansas

Post by glen ring »

Today was another fantastic Cowboy Silhouette match at the Old Fort Gun Club. James Slusher runs a first class show. The weather was great and the company pleasant. You guys and gals that haven't shot Cowboy Silhouette there should give it a try.

I have fond memories of shooting at The Old Fort Gun Club especially during the 'Scorched Earth' period a couple of years ago.

Thanks Steve,

Ordered the same sight about a week ago, per James Slusher's advice. Hasn't came in yet, wouldn't have had time to put it on due to a busy finish to tax season. In fact, won't be there Saturday, due to heavy booking at the office.

Unfortunately since this is the last weekend of the tax season, I'll be working Sunday too. Definately want to shoot some cowboy lever action this summer, though.
