Alpine Range is close.surprise_i'm_armed wrote: ↑Wed Jan 30, 2019 3:00 pmTo recap sites and times for the Fort Worth side of DFW's 3rd Saturday meetings :
February 16, 2019: Cracker Barrel, 132 East Interstate 20, Weatherford, 800 AM. Optional range time nearby after breakfast.
March 16, 2019 : Rudy's BBQ, 451 Interstate 20, Arlington, 800 AM. Currently no range time planned, but that could work for someplace nearby.
I'm looking forward to seeing all prior attendees, and hope to see some new faces as well. Be there, or be square. :-)

Re: DFW West/Southwest Quadrant Breakfast
Locations work for me CC is not a deal breaker. It will all depend on my work schedule. I usually don't know about Saturdays until the Friday before. If I'm off I'll be there.
I would also like to throw it out there, to maybe find a place more centrally located between this and the NE folks, and maybe set up a quarterly meet up. Maybe Flower Mound, Roanoake, etc. I'm not real familiar with establismets in those areas, but maybe someone closer would have some ideas.

Re: DFW West/Southwest Quadrant Breakfast
Folks, please let me know if you'll be attending the Cracker Barrel meeting this coming Saturday so I can let the management know to set up an appropriate number of tables for us.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Re: DFW West/Southwest Quadrant Breakfast
Sorry to have to miss it but we are having a special music service at Synagogue this coming Saturday morning and I am participating. Should be something like this Sephardic style music:
Wonder if I can play while open carrying?

I plan to be there, but I won't know for sure until Friday, they are haphazard at scheduling weekend work here.

So far we have 5 (including myself) and one maybe.
Any more before I call the number into the restaurant?

Re: DFW West/Southwest Quadrant Breakfast
For the Arlington folks. I have not had a chance to attend a meeting due to skeet club match on Saturdays you hold the meeting. There is a new range in Arlington that is close to Rudy’s. I have not checked it out except for the web but it may be an option.

Re: DFW West/Southwest Quadrant Breakfast
For those coming from the east on I20, you'll want to take exit 408 and stay in the left lane on the service road to take the U-turn just before the traffic light and go over the bridge to the eastbound service road.
There you'll want to get in the right hand lane as quickly as you can. Cracker Barrel sits just east of the Chili's restaurant and in front of the shopping center with Lowe's, Target, PetSmart, Best Buy, etc. These two restaurants are elevated above the service road.
The shortest route is to take the driveway into Chili's and drive through their lot to get to the Cracker Barrel.
If you miss that driveway, you can also take the next (last) driveway into the shopping center and work your way back to Cracker Barrel by heading back west through the main parking lot.

Re: DFW West/Southwest Quadrant Breakfast
I've notified the restaurant to expect 6 - 8 members for our breakfast.
We will be seated in the third dining room, and the manager said she would tell the greeter to direct people who ask for the Texas CHL Forum breakfast to the right table.
Please remember that the restaurant is fine with concealed carry, but has requested no open carry.
I'm looking forward to seeing everyone tomorrow!
