Is that restaurant actually in Flint, Flint Township, or Burton?

I really don't know. This was the address I provided. I suppose you could determine this by consulting an online map service.

Not sure of the city, but it's only about a mile east of the Bristol Road exit off I-75, on the SE corner of Van Slyke.

The lunch was a lot of fun. We had about 17 people there. Some went to the Firing Line in Flint to shoot, myself included. Got to shoot some guns I hadn't before then. I'm also thinking of buying the MP S&W 9mm and they had one to rent for $10 an hour so I got to shoot it. Nice gun. Must save money!

...so I'm guessing this was at the Family Fun Day hosted by SAFR. Is this correct?

I wanted to be at this, but I had previous obligations.

Any word on when they are doing another? Maybe on a Saturday?

There always is. Some want to meet once a week. I would think that the Flint area would have 5-10 people a week meeting for a weekend lunch. Go to the open carry thread on the MOC site and propose a place, time and date. If you set it up they will come.
