Mike we can setup and run our own practice sessions, rules I/we would live by doing that are the same rules we use at the match, no need for a RO, but I have run people before and Maks is setting up a RO class with Jim N. for sometime in the future, probably in January sometime, so we would eventually have someone that was RO certified anyway, and I think some of the folks that would be up for doing something like this were also interested in taking the class. As far as moving, not an issue, no breaking the 180, finger off trigger anytime you move unless your engaging a target etc, actually it's good practice to engage targets as you are both moving towards and away, being you will be doing this when shooting IPSC anyway. Like I said good practice, I have seen people trip and fall both landing on their gun as well as landing like they were superman, no AD, if your finger isn't on the trigger the triggers not getting pulled. I'd don't know an AD to me is gun malfunction, any other discharge of a gun is the operator and a ND to me. Thats why it's actually very good to practice doing more then just standing like a manikin shooting, the more you practice keeping the muzzle pointed in a safe direction the better chance if you ever did have a ND, you just sent a round in a direction thats not going to injure anyone or any thing.

I'm a DD guy myself with my coffee and my OL.

If Frank didn't hook you up yet let me know and I'll forward what I got, yea you did well, it was strange, watching you could clearly see hits and hear them, but while shooting I could swear I had hit when I didn't, I didn't see the hit per say, but I could have sworn I saw the plate move. Anyway, I had a good time and thats what I come out for, I'm new to all this so while I would like to score better I am happy if I don't get DQ'd, I'd be upset with how I shoot if I was practicing, but the only practice I get is when I shoot a match so I can't expect a whole lot for now, but that will be changing come the new year. By the way, the gun I was telling you about I shot at after the match was over at OB on Saturday, well here is a link to it.. Carbines

Mike one more thing, the club steel wold be great if we could use it, the only problem would be while there are many of us that would treat it like we owned it and use it properly, there are too many who would destroy it by shooting it with calibers that you shouldn't shoot it with, I'd bet they would last a week before you had all of them destroyed with 308 and 7.62X39 & 54R. If I remember correctly there was a large heavy, very heave rack that I think belonged to another club, probably CJ that was trashed a few months ago, it's a shame that the few hurt the many. Plus you don't want to think about what the cost to the club would be to replace them, I figure the steel along on last stage we shot probably cost the club well over a grand, not to mention the cost of the post stands are probably just shy of a grand them selves.

Dave, where the heck have you been, haven't seen you around here for a while. I'm looking forward to shooting at the indoor matches when I can, and as the other poster asked, any idea on pricing for the frangible ammo? Also what about 22LR, can you shoot that at these matches, I myself would be using a pistol if it's allowed but a rule on 22LR rifle for the others would be a good idea, being that would be the next questions if we can shoot pistol 22's.

Mike I mentioned at the match that Jon knew about a supplier of steel and I am going to start a new thread about that in just a few minutes, It's not that same size as the one we were shooting, but I will have to look buy I think they are 1/2" AR500 plates with a hole in them to use what ever mounting you want. I think they only come in 3 pack sets and are running about 80 or 90 bucks a set, I confirm in the new thread but IIRC one of each, 4". 6", 8" round plates. I was planing on picking up 2 sets and I am up for meeting over the winter and doing some practice, god knows I need it.

Welcome to the Forum..

There are very few A/C that can't transport live cargo..

I shot each gun once, I left before the last shooter shot that stage, after the last shooter they would rearrange the steel and have everyone shoot that stage, so you and I shot the same stage, I just did it with 2 different guns, if there were a few less people there I might have shot 2 more stage but I was getting close to the time I wanted to get out of there anyway.

I would have have him hold each before you buy any of them, i would also add in the Walther P22 being it has a small grip also and my Daughter loves shooting it and it fits her hand nicely. The only thing I really don't like about the gun is the mag release, other than that a great little gun. I would also say the MK III would be a great choice also if it fit his had well, can comment on the other you mentioned or the one Maks mentioned being I have never seen them let alone shot any of them.

I'll take 2 and call ya in the morning..

Ok, it's me, but when I glanced at the title I thought I read Bladetech...

Yup 2 stages, I think someone said they have had up to 4 to 5 stages but with 30 some-odd people showing up there was no way to get more than the 2 in. I left quite a while after you boogied and I knew then that I was going to leave early, I wanted to check the place out, try and hit some steel, and to put some more faces to names as well as I was buying 2k of .40 brass from a forum member and he was nice enough to meet me there.

So I am at work, going through my E-mails, did the normal work email cleanup, not too bad only a little over 200 emails from the time I left work yesterday afternoon until this morning, well being I finished that up I opened up one of my 2 personal email accounts and go to see what new and exciting stuff is in there, well I start reading and about 10 Emails down I see the following. ""Get $70 OFF The Blendtec Total Blender at Costco.com, Plus Shop Our Online-Only Coupon Offers!"" I see 70 bucks off, and Blendtec,,,,, yup,,, Belentec,,,,, BLENDERS,,, I'll bet you can figure it out.. ETA: though It read bladetech

I missed it, was busy all day yesterday when I got out of work, so, can we carry yet??

Very nice wheelgun, if you were to only have 1 gun, that's a good choice.

I was just about to say, Where is Paul with a 10 word or less answer to this..

Who says you have to, what proof do you have when you leave your house and are on the way to the range, I sure know I don't get a range pass e-mailed to me before I head out as proof. come on, this turning out to reading between times 2 here.

Ok, then your on your way to a competition in Nevada or pick a state. Actually you could be going to the rage in PA and your going to be in PA for a few days vacationing, no where does it say you have to leave during normal range operating hours and return right away. I do understand you don't want to do anything that will get you in trouble, and the worst part of it, restricted people that don't care about the laws and get caught may get a slap on the wrist in comparison to what us legal firearms owners would get if we did something wrong, but the truth of the matter is we need to stop making up rules and laws that don't exist and living in fear of owning firearms that are our right to own.

We all know the NJ Laws on transport, we transport handguns by exemption, as long as you are transporting inside NJ legally NJ has no control of what happens as soon as you cross the state line as long as the gun is legal to have here and at your destination. If you feel better, your on the way to a range, competition,etc and if you just happen to change your plans when you cross the state line, so be it.

I agree it's a little small but for someone who just wants a lockable cabinet and doesn't have the room for something bigger, it's not that bad an option, and it's a lot better than what some people may have things stored in or not stored in.

With it that low put it as far back as possible, need to be cognizant that a real low hit could ricochet if you miss the target off the ground, Id say one of the pits with the steepest and highest backstops just to be on the safe side for now.

That's someting you hope to only do once.

I kind of figured after this was posted we would have a heck of a lot higher dislike responses, as of now it's only 5 likes and 29 dislikes, heck this forum only has over 2500 members.

Good to meet you also Frank, and Coops name is Bill. Till the next time..
