So, is anyone shooting any of the area 3-gun/multi gun matches this year?

I am planning on shooting some if not most.

However, situation at home will determine which matches I go to.

What matches are there? there will be one in OB.

 

Topton has a few, right?

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.

OB may/may not have one, I hear its up in the air. York, Topton, and West Point all have upcoming matches.

south jersey shooters club has i believe one a month always have alot of fun at them

South Jersey has one on 3/24 @ 8am

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?

you don't need to shoot shotgun if you don't want to.

Shooter's choice.

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.

Same here. I'd love to get in on a 3-gun match.

I'd be happy to help-out before/after/in-between my round.

I'm shooting 3, 3gun majors somewhat local. That is if you consider within 300 miles local.

 

There is a monthly (Tactical) match in Schaefferstown PA as well
