The owners should soon stop by here and Share Their Story, as they take on this adventure.

I asked Jacques & Tassa if they knew about the NFOA Forum.    Because.....they did not post any advance notice on the Forum announcing the Omaha Planning Board hearing and their need for a show of support.   And I mentioned that they could have gotten some folks to show if they had posted in advance.

The both said that they were well aware of the Forum, but this session came up quickly.   They indicated they would be visiting in the future.   Maybe you could officially encourage them.   If you don't have their email, I'd be pleased to send it to you.

And....maybe we could get some CDL semi-drivers to drive a Meggitt Road Range around the state and hold shoot-offs.    Heck, take it to a truck stop...........

I have been conversing with them thru the FB page.  They posted something there, but unfortunately it gets reduced on the side and no one saw it in time to bring it to the forefront.
Being a bit of a Membership Nazi - I'm willing to help and support most anyone in our Gun Community, but I also ask in return that they 'sign on the dotted line' so to speak and become members.

Actually, it was your posting on the Forum that caused me to attend the Omaha Planning Board meeting.   Had to dig thru their FB to find it.   On the side, as you said.

Yes...they should become Forum members.   All will benefit.   That suggestion will make a good FB post.
