I really, really want to attend. I have to admit I'm a little apprehensive though, as I've never done this kind of shooting before. Normally I'd also be a little, oh I dunno, feeling out-of-place given you folks all seem to know each other and I'd be an outsider, but frankly everyone here seems extremely welcoming to new faces.

I'll try taking a walk around the block to think about it :wink:


The interesting thing that I have found about this group is that how ever much bluster there is on the web, we are all pretty darn friendly face to face. I had not met many of the people who showed up last time and it was good to put handles to faces/names. And hey, shooting steel is SO much fun.

Will it be starting at 12:00 like the previous thread mentioned? Would it be ok to join in for a couple of hours...I have an engagement in the early evening.

For a new person to this sort of shooting event, any special things I should know?

Selurcspi,
Are these steel challenge stages?

I'm actually free that Saturday and thinking about showing up.

Keith,

SC stages need a large range each, so these four will fit ou our two, come out of my head and be 5 shot minimum (so members of the "Church of the appropriate revolver" can compete too), best 3 times to count.

We will also have a man v man for bragging rights afterwards.

Thanks.

I did find the other thread a few minutes ago that describes it and just so I understand, it is falling steel, correct? If it's falling steel I just need to bring the appropriate .38 loads.


I just have to decide which gun to shoot.
Would I be shunned if I showed up with a "race" holster and a revolver?
:)
Although I really should try the new IDPA rig out I bought for the 686.

Keith,

I showed up last time with my IPSC racegun and rig, there were a few grumbles before we started but afterwards all was as it should be. Though I think I might have bruised a few egos. Likely as not that was because I'm English and in tha land of the Gun an old short fat Brit is not supposed to win..... :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Seriously now, bring ammo sufficient to knock down poppers and just expect to have fun. We all tease each other and if you join in, in that, even hammAR :P :P will forgive the race rig, in fact if you start teasing him now I think you'll fit in just fine

Sorry hammAR I couldn't resist :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

If I dig around I may find a real holster for the 625. Even my gamey major power factor .45 loads will take down steel no problem. Even if they're set heavy. As long as I do my part that is. :wink:

Decision. Decisions.
