I'll be there Mike. I emailed Ron Sunday. Im gonna shoot a second classifier w/Revolver and the Shotgun stage with my DB Stoeger CG. I might shoot the whole match with the wheel gun? I really enjoy the challenge of shooting matches w/revolvers and finally got all the gear. See ya Sat. :D

I can't make this. I will at my mother's house installing her ceiling fan. :( Have a happy Independence Day! What revolver do you shoot? Ron has a 4" S&W 625 and I have a 5". I don't have the gear for the 625, yet.

I shoot a S&W Model 10 M&P w/4" barrel. It was my wifes Grandfathers. Made in 1958 and all chrome. Very accurate, especially with Wad Cutters-158g.The DA trigger pull is amazing! It has a .38 frame but he had a custom cylinder installed and the timing redone so I shoot .38spc with it (6 shot). Enjoy the time with mom.

Nice day today. That type of shooting is a lot of fun, really easy to suck at and hard to do well. I'll need to do more of it if I want to get any better. Seems like the hardest things are a clean draw and quick mag changes.

 

Practice, practice, practice.

 

Pictures will follow later.

Hey Mike! You missed a great day. Ron designed some devious stages as usual. I dropped a bunch of points on stage 5 and my plan was slow. But it was still fun! I even convinced the wife to shoot the match. See you at the next one.

 

When were you planning the next intro class?

Sorry I missed it but family obligations overrule shooting. There is an into class in the works for Sept. When I get the okay, I will anounce it.

    • Looking to pick up a Kriss vector  in 9mm.  Let me know what you got.   Thanks Chris  
    • If you’re going to VA, buy 2 radios.  Program one for here and one for there.  If you guys are buying Baofeng radios do yourself a favor and get a tactical antenna for it,it’ll extend your reach.
    • Both our memories are a bit lacking. 3 bystanders were hit by NYPD bullets and 6 were hit by fragments at the Empire State Building shooting. The bullets later were determined to have passed through the bad guy as I said. He was not a big guy. The police fired 16 rds and 7 hit the bad guy.  Spray and pray?  I think not.  These officers fired until the threat was stopped and everyone is moving. Have you ever tried to hit a moving target whilst you're moving.  If you watch the video from where the police encounter him, the BG draws his gun from his bag, NYPD guys shoot, and the BG hit the ground is about 2 or 3 seconds.  The closest officer is maybe 12 feet or less.  The closest cover are those concrete flower pots.  If the officers chose to take cover before drawing the BG would have had a chance to shoot at least one officer. Know your target and beyond?  Agree 100%.  However, this by the Empire State Building at 9 am during the week.  There are bystanders and traffic in every direction.  The officers had a choice of doing what they did or letting the BG shoot them with his 1911 and shoot someone else. I think they made the right choice and the same one I would have made.  The officers exercised the best option in protecting themselves and the public. The first video is the police shooting.  The second is more detailed and gives you a lot of background information on the shooter. One thing this shows is if NYPD had to use fmj undoubtedly more bystanders would have been wounded perhaps killed.  NJ's hollowpoint law. only creates more danger to the public.
