Thanks Megaman for the video, advise and company during the day, we have to go and shoot some more soon! Will be there at 9. We never had the chance to meet each other... On which squad were you?

Col. Mortimer 11 Posted June 5, 2010 It was a good day. The rain held off just long enough. We had six new shooters but the crowd was not too big. Be sure to thank Ron Guman and Ralph and Karen Nitzel. Without them, there would be no match. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted June 10, 2010 How did everyone do? This was my first match so I focused on hit the A's instead of beat the clock and I was very happy because I was right on the center. The last stage was some steel plates and that didn't go that well... I end up shooting something like 15 extra rounds to pop all the plates down. Everybody was very friendly and extremely helpful. I can't wait for the next one! I'll be going to Old Bridge the 27th. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
13Charlie 0 Posted June 11, 2010 Steel will do that to you. i was lucky enough to get some steel practice at a GSSF match a couple of weeks ago, otherwise I'd have been much slower. that's a perfect strategy, get the acuracy down first then work on the speed. who's squad were you on? i was with Ralph and Karen.

Guest Posted June 11, 2010 I was with Ron. We were the first ones to shoot "El Presidente" you started on the other side of the berm. Are you going to OB the 27th? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Col. Mortimer 11 Posted June 11, 2010 How did everyone do? I am out of practice but I did good on the steel. Steel is the toughest to shoot. No one sees a "D" hit but eveyone, including you, knows you missed a steel target. I practice with these: http://www.newboldtargets.com/law-enfor ... for-le.htm I made a stand with 2x4s. I forget who asked but the ready condition for a SA/DA pistol in Production Division is a round in the chamber, hammer down and safety off as per Rule 8.1.2.3 and Appendix D.

I was totally off on the steel. I attribute that to my front sight. Im going to get it fixed for the next match at OB. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
