NickC 23 Posted March 14, 2012 I'll be there. Got to break in this Trojan. Is having 5 mags mandatory? I might wanna try it out but I only have 3. Deni, come down anyway even if you don't find extra mags to borrow. I'll speed load for you. Just make sure you squad up with the NJGF group. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hd2000fxdl 422 Posted March 14, 2012 I should be there, and Deni if someone doesn't have extra mags for you being the helpful group that we are, I'll designate futool as your personal mag loader... LOL just kidding Nick, we will all help him out as long as we can get a squad together. Now if I by some miracle happens and I get my P2P's from the PD I might have my Brazos gun with my, but if not, the trusty CZ will be there along with my GSG 1911.

M4BGRINGO 139 Posted March 14, 2012 Hmmmm. A year ago there was no question, I'd be going drag racing instead of shooting. Now, I'm 50/50............. I should bring the Beretta CX4 out for a spin and get used to it. Also have the S&W 617 to try out on steel. Yes Ray, it holds too many bullets, but us old guys that can't see anymore need the extra shots to save us from reloading. So I am a firm possibility for this one!

hd2000fxdl 422 Posted March 16, 2012 It may or may not work out, but any chance anyone that is going to the match would have some extra STI .40 S&W Double stack mags I can borrow. I may get a shipment tomorrow of the other mags for it, but if that falls through I'd like to see if I had a backup plan. Unfortunately I only have 1 10 round mag that came with the gun at this time. Gun I plan on shooting is a STI Edge .40S&W. Anyone??? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alec.mc 180 Posted March 16, 2012 i think ken shoots an edge, he was at the last steel match, send him a PM. - " kmill77 " Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hd2000fxdl 422 Posted March 16, 2012 Yea, thats right, I'll check with him, thanks for the heads up, I should have remembered being it was all his fault anyway, it was after shooting his Brazos that made me have to go and order one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M4BGRINGO 139 Posted March 16, 2012 There will be enough of us to reload the mag while others are painting the steel. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alec.mc 180 Posted March 16, 2012 There will be enough of us to reload the mag while others are painting the steel. not with one 10 round magazine. you can always start shooting revolver division harry Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hd2000fxdl 422 Posted March 16, 2012 There will be enough of us to reload the mag while others are painting the steel. Well it now all depends on 2 things, me getting my mags tomorrow if they arrive, thats a maybe at this time, trying to work out a hold so it doesn't try and get delivered when I know I wont be home, will see how that goes. Second thing will be I have to work out a new load for the STI. Going to load up a few tonight after I finish putting my "Unique Tooled Clap Kit" on my Dillon and load up a 100 rounds. Going to go with for minor loads: Delta Precision 180gr FMJ, 4.0 N320, OAL 1.15... Maybe Crono them tomorrow if I have time and see how they cycle the gun. After she ain't broken in, only tossed about a 100 down range. My Minor load that I had made up for the CZ didn't cycle the gun as well as I would like, They were 180gr FMJ, 3.6 n320, 1.18 OAL. Either way I'll be there, STI if I have what I need, CZ as a back up if not, Well that and the GSG 1911 also.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hd2000fxdl 422 Posted March 16, 2012 not with one 10 round magazine. you can always start shooting revolver division harry I have though about that, could shoot the Taurus 94, Have 2 speed loaders and 2 trays with 4 set-up's but still playing around with the Wolf Spring kits, Gun isn't as reliable as I would like for a match just yet. Only problem with the 94 is I would have to shoot in Pistol Rim-fire, don't think there is a rim-fire revolver division anyway. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M4BGRINGO 139 Posted March 16, 2012 Hey, why don't we make a rim-fire revolver division! I will have my 617 there. How long can it possibly take to shove 6 bullets into the mag while people are painting the plates? There are only 5 plates to shoot at anyway, right? You don't need more than 6 shots to hit 5 plates, otherwise you'll be shooting like me! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hd2000fxdl 422 Posted March 16, 2012 While being this isn't a WCS official match, it still keeps the the standards divisions. Too many divisions and it can get a little nuts. The only sport I know right now that has a revolver rim-fire division is OBRAMS, and they have Open and Iron. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
