From what I recall from the briefing it was that only the rings count. Also - Sounds like your RO was Tom Richards - he runs the actual IDPA at Somerset. I'm glad I had Cameron as RO - he was very relaxed and worked well with the new shooters.

Sounds like your RO completely missed the briefing then - that's bad. You were allowed to drop mags. Of course the only time I was really reloading was when my mags were completely empty. By STANDARD IDPA rules, you are not allowed to drop mags with bullets still in them. We weren't going by normal IDPA rules yesterday.

Yeah - the scoring area wasn't defined, however during the walkthrough, John stated that the scoring area was the ONLY area that could be scored. Everything else outside, even if it was a headshot, did not count. If it was barely touching the scoring area or just barely outside, he said to give it to you. If it's a "headshot" and it's on the ear or the very top of the head, it wouldn't put down a zombie, so why should it count? And no - you couldn't see your hits unless you were very close. I made a few follow-up shots on some targets because as I got closer I could see I was low/etc. My AR worked great for this match. I need to work on my shotgun - I need a new stock

Already did

Ronny - since this was a Zombie "Fun" 3 gun, the rules for rigs were a bit different. We could run tactical gear, etc however we wanted - the only rule was that holsters have to be strong side hip or thigh. Don't normal 3 gun rules require you to have everything belt mounted? I would like to try some more traditional 3gun stuff, however, I'd need to get new gear.

Do you know who your RO was? It wasn't John the match director, was it? Cameron from GAPP was the main RO for our group and he was very lenient because almost everyone on our squad was a new shooter. The only experienced ones were Cameron, Myself, and 1 other guy.

Some of the stages. My rifle cam videos didn't work for some reason.... oh well.

Smokeysmokey boomboom?

Not yet - the front sight on the Px4 Compact is different than that of the Fullsize and subcompact. You can change the rear sights but that's pretty useless. I think there's a pretty big gap if you change the front sight.

Some pics first.

Against the law to transport ammo? You gotta be kidding me. That's not right at all and not how the law is - where did you hear that?

I'll bring my SKS for you to use. Bring the 870 - you may not need the 7+1. Learn to use what you got!

If he has an SKS and stripper clips (and ammo for you) and you need a rifle, I'll bring my SKS for you to use.

Handguns to NY are a no-no.

I'll bring my chicom for a spare.

Just wondering - why flat black and not blueing?

CASH ONLY GANG!

Because 9mm bullets are longer than .380, they have to make the pistols slightly bigger. Kahr PM9, CM9, Keltec PF9, Ruger LC9...

Beretta Px4 - "MDS" marked OEM mags (instead of P.B. on Beretta mags). http://www.cdnninvestments.com/bepx49mm15bl.html

Updated info. There's a stainless steel internal subframe in the grip frame itself. That's the serial #'d part of the gun. When available, you can change out the grip frame for say a .40S&W grip and slide assembly without having to buy another gun (and in NJ - wasting another PP). Beretta Nano website is out - http://www.berettanano.com Video is up:

Ray and I took ours to a gunsmith. Armament now has a sight pusher for Px4s I found the sights on DVOR.com for $85 each (+ $10 shipping) so I got a set for myself and Ray.

Nope - I'll be on the road early enough that it doesn't bother me. Going generally away from the city too. Also - if you want some pictures of the targets, go to http://www.obdogs.com/ Scroll down to where it says "OBDOGS Facebook" on the left, and click the left picture.

Who has PC/Xbox/PS3? I'm debating whether to go with Xbox or PS3...

I'll be the chinese dude in Multicam.

That's expensive as heck. $20/hour to shoot your own ammo? Pass.
