I'll check with the AFS exec to see if they have any info on the CHAS. I'm wondering if this is the Edmonton group that lost their range at Spruce Grove a couple of years back. Will advise
The AFS president believes it is the Edmonton group that lost their range at Spruce Grove. He mentions the alias Jayhawk as being connected to it. I might know Jayhawk to see him, but the alias doesn't ring a bell.

Jabez, glad to hear your feeling better. Take life easy and build back your strength. I hope to see you at Granum this spring since Alberta Annie has announced their dates already. This morning I got an email from the Canadian Historical Arms Society they shoot at the Genesee Shooting Range, west of Leduc.
"CHAS Cowboy Action shooters league will be hosting two shoots, at the Genesee Range.
July 24th & 25th
August 28th & 29th"
Have you ever head of this group or shot at the range?

Burnt Bacon & I shot with him in Noxon Montana about 3 years ago. He was still shooting a 10 gauge at 93, what a fantastic trooper to shoot with.
He was at the Canadians at Rocky Mountain House back in 2011 + or - 1 yr and he wore his period USMC whites

And Communist China is his wet dream.
Why else would he have allowed their troops to experience winter warfare at Garrison Petawawa?
And become enraged when NDHQ got them out?
Or leased former RCAF Penhold to them??
Is there more we haven't found out about yet?
Oh, I know about the musing about deeming the value of a private home's rental value being taxed and Christa Freeland looking for ways to dip into private savings, (That's not the interest on savings, but the savings themselves!))
The former RCAF Penhold doesn't belong to the government anymore, it is now a hamlet of Red Deer County and the name was changed from Mynarski Park to Springbrook, with many new housing developments. The old Provincial Gov't bunker was destroyed as they were afraid that an outlaw biker gang would take it over. The airfield is now the Red Deer Regional Airport. The old hangers are being used for Water Bombers and private outfits including a flying training school. It is basically a bedroom community of the city of Red Deer. We are I5 kms from Springbrook in the opposite direction.

Never really trusted Max's judgement (or his abilities), after his little escapade with the biker chick and the briefcase full of secret/confidential Cabinet documents.
Normal for a Liberal I know, but not so much for a Harper Conservative.
Exactly!

We don't need any vote splitting within the Conservative Party. That has always been our downfall. Besides, I don't favor Alberta going it alone, I favor all 4 western provinces and the Yukon going its separate way.
During the last federal election the Conservatives lost 6 seats with Max Bernier's Peoples Party splitting the conservative vote. The six seats wouldn't have made a difference but, if it was close, it could have. Just saying.

And now, closing down the mini parliament and shutting down the inquiries, to rule by decree (Order In Council).
Is WEXIT gaining ground out your way?

We had our first shoot at Pebble Ridge (approx 15 kms SW of Rocky Mountain House) on July 18. It was a one day shoot and we had a two day shoot on Aug 1 & 2. Good turn out for both shoots. We had 30 at the 1st shoot and 47 at the 2nd one. Next shoot Sept 5 & 6

The wind chill today is -37C or -35F It's cold enough to freeze the nuts off of a steel bridge.

The Alberta Frontier Shootists had their last shoot two weeks ago however, there is still lever action silhouette at Trochu on Oct 6th if there isn't any snow on the ground.

That's a good one.

Well now, not trying to be too grumpy here, but..... it sure is great to be alive. Literally. I've had my third bout in my life with pneumonia and didn't know if I was going to make it this time. I've rounded a corner and on the mend, thank the Lord. I'm planning on getting to a match soon. Had one under my belt this year and have got to get the BP out soon before I dry up completely. Miss all of you but don't take that for me getting soft.
Church fund getting low boys, two old quarters, kleenex and someone's rusty pocketknife.

Have you had the pneumonia shot? My wife and I had the shot a couple of years ago, one shot is good for life. When you think about it, how many people have you heard who were in the hospital for one problem or another but, ended up dying of pneumonia instead.
Take care, Rev

Got all my CAS bullets made for the year, including the 45-70's in both black and smokeless. Have to shoot the smokeless 45-70's at the silhouette shoots at Trochu and the black at Lethbridge. and back to the smokeless for the CAS side matches. This is also my 6th year for black powder muzzle loading with the Alberta Black Powder Assoc. Started off with percussion and last year I added a flinter. Smoke and flame. It's going to be a busy shooting summer.

Swallow Fork is now 80 and starting to slow down , I hope when I'm 80 I'm still shooting CAS ...
His wife says he's getting more Grumpy day by day so soon he will fit in Here ...
Jabez Cowboy
I shot with Swallow Fork in Calgary, Rotten Monkey House and at Alberta Annie's. A very fine gentleman. I'm catching up to him as I turn 76 this year, hope I'm still shooting 4 + years from now. I'm not grumpy, I'm just glad that I made it this far. And' you can walk on my lawn if you like walking in 2 ft of snow.

Just Google Firearms Act & Regulations - Royal Canadian Mounted Police. It will give you everything that you wanted to know.

Saw an old Wild Bill Elliot movie a few years back They dug a bullet out of a guy and Elliot looked at it and said it came from a Marlin rifle.

We went through all that with females wearing female uniforms then all of a sudden they are wearing male uniforms. The RCMP included. If the reverse was true they would be called transvestites.

Was within hand shaking distance with President Reagan (Ottawa Visit 1981), Lash Larue, Duncan Reinaldo (Cisco), Leo Carrillio (Pancho), Johnny Mack Brown. That's the only U.S. personalities that I was within touching distance.

Is Jayhawk Doc's brother? I remember Doc's brother shooting at Rocky Mountain House when their Dad, Wildrose was alive but, I haven't seen him since.
