@Oaktavia keep me in the loop too. I’m in an air bnb just a half mile away and I’ll have a car. Flying in Thursday.

[Oaktavia]

@jordanscollected will do for sure, glad you are able to make it.

West Coast next year?

Organize one yourself; it's easier than you think.

[Giles]

Remember that 2027 is our 25th Anniversary, so there will Iron Heart organised parties. Not say that you should not organise one, but there is a chance of timing conflict and also people may be spending $$$$$'s on travel to one of them. I would wait to see what we announce.....

[dirtyframer]

@Giles count me in! Wouldn't mind a trip back to the UK.

[Giles]

Or even perhaps Japan

[dirtyframer]

@Giles !!!! That works for us- not a bad flight from Seattle

And none in Gosport?

[goosehd]

@markus_berlin_ time will tell...time...

We still have half of this year to work through and a year is a long time.

[goosehd]

...I mean, how many times have we thought that something would never be made, an item was never going to be seen again, and then boom.

I 100% DID NOT say that......

[don_pipone]

@markus_berlin_ better start saving for a Japan and a Gosport trip

[markus_berlin_]

@don_pipone
I’d already started looking for a second job… but thanks to @Giles
I can leave it at that and save my money for Gosport

[68degreesorless]

Just booked our flights. Looking forward to it.

[louisbosco]

lmk if this isn't allowed, but would love to hear some recommendations for a shooting range in baltimore. feel free to pm some recommendations if it's not meant to be public

[goosehd]

@louisbosco If I learned anything from watching the Wire, most back streets and alleys. They will also return fire to make it more interesting…

[louisbosco]

@goosehd cause the motto is "it's more fun when it shoots back"

[Oaktavia]

@louisbosco well it is America after all, there are shooting ranges littered all over the dang place! I found this one that has skeet shooting, which can be fun. Are you looking to rent a firearm? They have rentals there.

Edit: oh and FWIW,

"During the first half of 2026, the Baltimore Police Department (BPD) continued to achieve historic reductions in homicides and other major crime categories while maintaining clearance rates that significantly exceed national averages"

[Matt]

I’m honestly not familiar with anything locally. I can look around though.

[Oaktavia]

@Matt are you able to share a head count from that Google form? I'm curious how many folks signed up to go.
