Anyone shooting 3-gun

Recommended Posts

OB "might" have one. There are others here who can better answer that.

Topton will have various events going on, including some 2gun events. (there is a shotgun/pistol match this weekend)

Several other clubs in the "area" will have some events also.

Dude, you do not have to shoot a shotgun though right? If I only have a pistol, I can go shoot in Topton this Sunday?

Henry, why wouldn't OBRPC have one? We did a zombie match last year, had a large turnout. I don't see why they wouldn't do it again. Heck, if they wanted to make it a knockdown steel event and either use all three types of guns per stage or have a stage designed for each type of gun, I'd do it! Pistol caliber rifles or rimfires. Would be cool to be able to use my AK-style rifle again, but I'd be happy shooting steel.

All depends on what else is going on and if they can fit it in is what I am figuring. There was one there last year from what I remember, and like Henry said, it may happen, I just haven't seen anything come out officially. Just keep an eye out and also try and make a members meeting and then you can always ask there.

I go to all the meetings and it gets discussed. I don't know who decides what though. It seems like we need a form to pass-along at the meetings or send out to the members and see what people want to do during the course of the year. Static steel is ok but I would rather do knockdown steel. I realize the knockdown takes much more time and effort to setup. It also takes a lot more time to reset stages.

 

I got to do one 3-gun match last year plus one knockdown steel match, wish there were more.

Regarding OB. The zombie match is idpa. The 3-gun match is OBCATS. Why we may not have one is due to not enough worker bees, and too many shoot and scoot types. There's also issues of too many people signing up. Theres issues with tying up the range for the length of time needed to get everyone through who wants in. We simply aren't going to get that big a block of time from the club or from match staff.

 

There are other issues, but those ate the major ones.

 

We may not have one. We may have one that is invitation only.

 

As for zombie match, that's idpa and they have their own manpower issues. They will also likely have some logistical issues as I hear they are getting their own trailer.

    • Yup I see. Looks like right now you can only purchase the 2023-2024 permit still. I assume won't be able to purchase 24-25 season permit until July.
    • Just a heads-up for anyone who might also be in this situation. I joined USLS mid-April of 2022. Some time after renewing for 2023, I changed email providers, and dutifully reflected my new address on my account page. So, I have been anticipating renewal alerts at my new address, but those never arrived. I logged in to my account the other day, and was surprised to see that my subscription expired that same day. I went to my account main information page, confimed that my email address was correct, then went to the billing page, which showed my previous two payments, but which did not give me any apparent way to pay up for the new year. I requested support using the Customer Service form on the web site, but received no reply. Today I called their support number. Apparently changing the email address from my view of my account page did nothing to change the address that they use internally for billing purposes, including expiration notifications. Maybe they also use that address for replies to the support form, even if a different email address is entered there. Also, my account was set up to auto-renew and charge my credit card without my intervention, but that setting did not show on my account page in any obvious way. So, if you have USLS and have changed your email address since you last renewed, you might want to give them a call to ensure that they send renewal information to your correct address. The prospect of having legal coverage lapse while carrying in NJ was, for me, a less that confidence inspiring experience. I will note that the telephone-based customer service was excellent.
    • F*n imbeciles. They know damned well (or should) that, even if passed by the Colorado Senate and signed into law, virtually that entire load of crap is certain to fail Bruen/Heller scrutiny, and probably sooner, rather than later (SCOTUS). What a monumental waste of time (of course, how much can a dip$h*t's time be worth, anyway?) and energy. I passed through Colorado a few times in the 70s, and visited some clients there in the 80's & 90's, and, even by the end of that period, I had the impression that it was politically fairly conservative (with a few exceptions such as Aspen). WTF happened?
    • The rifle permit is just an add-on to your hunting license. No separate course required.
