My instructions might not be so great. Here is a forum post on uploading photos and video. The number three item is how to create your profile pic http://www.gunslot.com/forum/fng-guide-uploads-updated
Hopefully that helps.

My wife grew up in North Lake, her parents live in Addison, and her brother lives in Huntley. I live visiting illinois but don't think I would want tonlive there. I prefer the desert.

One of the guy that shoots with us at the Tuesday match is from Rockford. He comes down each winter and heads back after a couple of months. My tech school was at Canute AFB in Rantoul (spelling) back in 1979....

Jummers is a couple hours from Rockford, over on the Mississippi River.

Can you tell me how you were able to post the picture that comes up to the left side of your post. Have tried but been unable to do it.
Ebear
i shoot at Gatts guns in Dundee, but don't you have a place calle The Pines that supposed to be awsome.They are opening a new range in Carpentersville with a rifle range in March.Can't wait...i wanna shoot my AK!!!!!
fixxer72
Yes it's called Pine Tree Pistol Club. In the $250 to $300 a year range for membership. You also have to take the gun course that they teach for an additional charge. I belong to Rochelle Wildlife Conservation Club located near Chana, IL. They have an outdoor range, fishing lake and archery range. The rifle/pistol/shotgun range is small but serves the purpose. They just built a range house this past summer so you can shoot if it is raining and not get wet other than putting targets out. They have 15, 25, 50 and 100 yard ranges. Best of all it is $45 a year for a family membership. And no daily range fee. If you would like more information let me know. I know of several guys that come out from the suburbs to shot there.

yes please send me the information....im always looking for a good range...and 45 bucks a year for the family sound very reasonable.
fixxer72
About all you need is a valid FOID card and your check for $45. The phone number for the club is 815-732-2808. There is not a waiting period or initiation of any type. As long as someone is at the proprietors house on grounds all you have to do is stop by the house fill out your paperwork give them a check and you can go right down to the range. If you would like maybe we could meet someplace near by here and we could go down to the range together sometime. When it warms up a little. The range is about 15 minutes from my house.
fixxer72
Hey buddy have you been able to call down to the range. Let me know and we can work out something about going out there and give our AK's a workout.
