Shouldn't be a problem TL, booze can always be fixed!

Though I'll let someone else find beer as I don’t know what to buy that will sooth your palate ;-)

Ghost had a good question, so decided to put the answer here.
He asked if there was any firearm safety resources that should be looked at before coming over. Of course there is.

For those coming with us to the range, we'll provide the safety gear etc. and there will be a safety briefing/quick weapons handling intro. It might be a good idea to check out these few things first though.

Gun safety: guidelines and mindset.

Of course that guy talks about a firefight, being an american. None of that here. You'll mostly be shooting the guns until they're empty anyway, but good to know clearing technique.

For those that want to get a head start on shooting technique, I stumbled across these videos the other day. Some great information there.

Trigger press: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=trYNu36-g5o

The grip video was kind of 1911-specific, so here's another one using a glock as a demo. Handy, since we'll be trying out glocks :D

Colour me excited.

I shall do my homework before coming along, cheers faust!

Oh and not paying attention to firearms safety makes Kake twitchy and apprehensive, which is not something you want :-)

As TL reminded me with a timely pm I have completely forgotten to tell you that you will be picked up at the airport when you arrive.
We are infact in a bidding war on who gets to pick you up right now :-P
