Just registered, will be my first match...

I'm going to shot SS would that be major power F?

I only have four mags would that be enough?

There 8 rounders.

Hopefully I can squad up with some of the guys I've shot OBRAMS with...

If it is .45 it is major unless you are hand loading for really light loads.

 

Max round count is 32 per stage. You really want 5-6.

I am registered... SonnyLee if you need some 1911 mags I have a bunch you can borrow a few. You always need a Barney mag..

Yes it a .45, not hand loading yet, factory ammo...

Gotta see if I can get two other mags

Thanks

Hey thanks, ill see you there!

If you need mag holders or mags, I can dump some in my range bag.

Hey can I borrow 5 MP 9mm mags from anyone? They are out of stock everywhere and I'd like to see if my conversion barrel works.

I'm registered.

Thanks, I appreciate the offer.

I was able to find a couple today at heritage guild.

There was two left and I bought them.

I can let you borrow the 5 I've got but I'm not shooting Sunday, and I'm going to need them Saturday. If you want to meet up Saturday afternoon, or possibly Sunday morning. We're playing baseball in East Brunswick at 10:00 but need to be there earlier.

I'm registered... This will be my first shooting event ever. Looking forward to it.

 

How essential is it to have mag holders? I have one on order for my Glock .40 mags at the moment, but I don't think it will be here by Sunday.

 

Hope to meet some of you guys out there!

For your first event not essential because you won't be shooting to impress anyone with fast times...at least that shouldn't be your goal.

 

My advice, which will likely be mirrored by others, is to go SLOW, absorb everything, and build your experience from one event to the next.

 

Make sure you can stage them in your back pocket or somewhere else on your person and practice reloading at home with unloaded magazines so that you are familiar with the process. For your first match you just want to make sure you can complete the reloads safely...not necessarily quickly. That will come.

 

Good luck!

Testing your experimental contraption for the first time at a live match? What could possibly go wrong? ;)

bah, live a little. :)

 

I have a hat that says "F**k It, will do it live" which I keep on meaning to wear at work during serious hardware upgrades.

Yes, I 100% agree. I shot my first match last month with a 10/22 that I never shot before. It kept jamming, sight was completely off and I basically sucked, lol.....I am registered this time again; however learned from my mistakes and will keep practicing until the 29th. The guys in the club are the greatest group of men and women and helped me out alot. Practice dropping and reloading your mags, sight your scope and take your time. Its alot of fun !!..Good luck, Will see you there.

 

BTW - Im not one to give advise because I am new as well, but I have learned from my past experiance and what he's saying above is true. Just go and have fun !

I have a spare double mag holder that you can use so you can at least practice reloading from a mag holder. Depending on what division and the round count for the stage, you would need to hold at least 4 mags on your belt. You can also shove a spare in your back pocket.

 

Just look for the Asian guy wearing a faded Yankee cap.

I just want to make sure that you realize the event Sunday is outdoor USPSA. If I remember the first event you shot was indoor police carbine combat....two completely different gun sports. For Sunday you'll need a Center Fire Handgun and at least two magazines...3 is better....4 is best.

 

If you search the subforum you'll find some USPSA threads...probably some with video's to give you a better idea of what to expect.

 

Wish I was shooting on Sunday. Ugh.

Awesome... Thanks man. I'll keep an eye out.

I am out for this one. Will be doing a fund raiser walk with Anastasia's company up in Clinton. Her employer is contributing $200 for every employee that shows up, so since she really wants to go but not yet up for driving that far by herself, will be driving her.

 

If anyone needs to borrow stuff, shoot me a pm, if you are in the princeton/east windsor area.

I just realized that but will be registering for this event as well. I enjoyed both the events I attended already (OBRAMS & PCC) and figured, why not try all the events if I can make them. I was just giving advise too take time, concentrate and enjoy his first competiton..I went in with a brand new gun and bad mags...

 

I will see you there :)

For USPSA you will need 4 mags minimun, 5 is ideal. I carry 5 on my belt and one on my back pocket just in case. I have shot many stages that required 2 or 3 mandatory reloads.

Maximum round count on a legal stage is 32 rounds..... however local matches have a lvl 1 exemption. They can do 60 if they want.

 

However... most local matches will now be around 26 rounds max due to ammo.
