USPSA @ OBRPC 11/24/13

Recommended Posts

OK, there are a few missing scores. I will verify that there are no scores on people that did NOT shoot the match. Important! Make SURE Youre Name is the one scored!. Verify the score, You the Shooter, hit Save, THEN look at the screen, it will have a time and HF OR it will say Incomplete. Just going to the review screen does NOT save your score, MAKE SURE!.

 

I will look though the nooks for misscored persons.

 

I have also re-synced the nooks tonight. There were a couple scores that apparently did not sync properly the frst time. Probably 'Operator Error' so a revised posting will be made. likely NOT until Wednesday. SO in the mean time ignore the scores that are posted. They are wrong.

 

ALSO, just another little item.  We ask everyone, Please note any DQs on the Squad Sheets as well as telling the MDs. List the Reason next to the shooters name. Also anyone that leaves early, We need this information.

 

 

Thank You!

Thats was pretty crazy, do the beginners have to do that?

 

Yes, they do, but don't let that scare you off. You have to understand that 2Alpha is a top tier shooter and often wins these local club shoots and is competitive in the larger sanctioned matches. The competition is structured so that you compete against those of a skill level similar to yours.

 

As a beginner, you go at your own pace. Strive for smoothness and accuracy and speed will come (at least that's what they tell me - couldn't prove it by the way I shoot). Read the stickys.

 

Just be safe and have fun.

 

Adios,

well. Thats the plan.

 

You go at your own speed and comfort level. But stages are timed and the idea is to be fast and accurate and yeild the highest hit factor you can

 

So thats where I go wrong..

I am either fast OR accurate, but not both at the same time.

OK, that looks like a real blast. I want to get involved.

 

What's the best way to go about getting into it?

 

I have the guns ... need holsters, mag carriers and a belt though. Bladetech stuff gtg? What other gear is required/recommended?

 

Beyond the gear, what's next?

OBRPC & CJRPC run matches once a month you can attend, OBRPC runs an indoor match which is a little more laid back and simple which might be good for the uber green.

 

Dec. - Feb are weird months to get involved, I know there is no december match at obrpc, I dont think there are ones for dec and jan at CJRPC ( vlad will confirm ) - plus - it's so friggin cold out !

 

You'll need to figure out what division you'd like to play in, This will depend on your what gun you have, and what kind of gear you'd like to run. There are a couple good stickys in this fourm section you should read through, but typically ( assuming you'd run production division ) Gun - Blade tech holster, 4 - 5 magazines and assosiated pouches. 

 

But other then owning a gun and the equipment, please be familiar with your firearm on how it works, manipulating it,  safely clearing malfunctions, and navigating a run and gun course without breaking any safety violations.

I believe there is an indoor event at Old Bridge Friday December 6th and I would strongly suggest you consider that match.  It's very low key and with much simpler stage designs and lower round count.  You've get a lot of up close observation and personal attention.  I shot my first USPSA event indoors and it made a big difference in my acclimation to the sport.

 

You may even be allowed to shoot from low ready if you don't have a holster.

No match announcement yet, but there should be a USPSA match at Shongum (Hackettstown) on Saturday 12/7. Ron usually sends out the notice for pre-registration about a week in advance. Decent match for beginners and experienced alike. 5 stages with some run & gun, usually one standard and some steel. Good crowd.

 

Adios,

To any and all.

 

My computer got hit with a very bad virus two weeks ago. I had essentially to reformat the HD and reload all programs and data. I have the basic information from the matches, but I am currently unable to load EzWinScore to process the info. I have requested an updated disc from HQ and will get the classifiers posted to USPSA as soon as I am fully back up and running.

    • We never let then inside.  Last re-evaluation was 6-7 years ago, wife politely told him that he was welcome to look around the property and he could look in the windows. He saw two white resin chairs in the basement and told her that this constituted a finished basement. And everything in the basement is bare concrete/ cinder block, and mechanical systems. Nothing finished about it. Ultimately he relented and I'm sure that was a ploy to coerce us to allow him in
    • I use an Alien Gear cloak tuck (IWB) with my Shield.  Neoprene back - in the summer it does feel warm but doesn't rub or chafe.   https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-iwb-holster.html Could also go with the shapeshift as it has multiple options - OWB/IWB, Appendix... https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-shapeshift-modular-holster-system.html
    • The  12-1 compression ratio L88 is long gone. This is GM's updated version. it might be  pump gas 10-1 engine The L88 was a aluminum head  cast iron block engine with a nasty solid lifter cam. the  ZL1 was a all aluminum  12 or 13-1 compression ratio engine with the best forged internal parts at the time and had a even nastier solid lifter cam 
    • I like my regular carry holster.  OWB leather with belt slots.  I've been carrying for over a year and it was comfortable and I hardly even noticed it.  I carry (usually) a Ruger LCP .380 - light, convenient, tiny. But...today I ended up taking it off an leaving it home after a few hours. I cut down a big maple tree a few days ago and I spent 3/4 of today loading and unloading firewood into the back of my truck and a trailer.  It was a warm day, I was dirty, tired, sweaty, and my holster was rubbing against my side.  The leather and exposed metal snap was no longer comfortable. I'm thinking about adding a layer of something to that part of the holster to soften the contact.  Anything insulating will make it worse.  I don't want a sweaty, hotter holster against my skin.  I'm imagining something thin, breathable, that won't absorb sweat, and softer than leather, metal snaps, and rivets.   But I have no idea what would work. I'm hoping somebody else has already figured this out and I can just do what they did. Any suggestions appreciated.
    • Check the primers on the ammo you didn't shoot yet. Are they fully seated? If the primer is not just below flush with the back of the case, the first hit can seat it better then the second hit ignites it.
