So I’ve come to a couple of issues this evening while packing for tomorrow.
First off….i don’t have nearly enough cases/bags for transporting firearms.
Also…how the hell am i supposed to decide which guns to bring?
I don’t have any really fancy or extra cool shit to show off, so that’s not the problem.
I’ve gathered up a few things in a few calibers and a little ammo for each,
and now I have a big pile in the living room to pack and I’m wondering if it’s overkill.
Do I bring everything I or anyone I meet might possibly want to shoot?
Do I only bring a couple of things and then suffer with “ I should have brought _____?
How do you guys decide?

Bring a 44mag.

I think Im the only guy that ever brings 44mags to shoot. An overlooked round that everyone loves to shoot!

Haha . . . yeah, I struggle with these questions.

I used to bring all kinds of guns to group shoots, but I've changed my approach because it can just get overwhelming. I'm now in the "less is more" camp.

I’m bringing what’s left from my boating accident earlier this year, not much left but I’m thankful to be alive after it.

I'm bringing some that need the sights zeroed/verified, my 94AE .357 that I hopefully fixed with a new part, a couple new to me ones, and a few for fun.

There are still a couple that I'd like to bring, but of the dozen I brought last year, several never came out of their cases.
