I think the biggest challenge this Sunday will be the condition of the range. I was there today and it's an ice and mud pit. The handgun range behind the clubhouse is still 80% ice covered as is the one across the stream. The rifle range is swampy. Parking should be a delight too. With the mud the way it is and the gun show on the same day as the shoot, I can't figure out where all the vehicles will go.

Should get my slide back tomorrow, so may shoot it on Sunday for fun, or the 320? Your reservation is confirmed, but no frequent flyer miles

I was wondering about that as well, might be a more stationary course of fire for Sunday, going to be a bit chilly too..

I'm a total noob to steel matches. Other than the obvious pistol, ammo, safety gear, what do I need to bring? I suspect a holster, but I don't have one (unless I shoot my M1917.

). I can use a G22, G27 or 1911 - I lean toward the G27 as I've shot it the most and I'm comfortable with it.

Warpspasm · Mar 20, 2015

You do not need a holster. You can shoot from low ready. In fact, if you haven't practice drawing from a holster to shoot, the match might not be a good place to do it for the first time. Use whatever handgun you are most comfortable with at first. Once you get used to doing matches you should try different stuff just for fun.

Wanted to use the new Springfield just for fun (and practice b/c I am getting into the new CCP division in IDPA), but I had to send the 3.8 slide to TruGlo b/c of a new front sight issue. I won't have it back, so probably the 320, but I am thinking I'll bring my 1911 and maybe shoot big boolits for a change!

TapRackBang · Mar 20, 2015

Thanks Warspasm, good information. :thumbsup:

Be ready even if we have to do stationary stages it's not going to be easy

Yeah, I gotta remember to wear my work boots...

I think I'm getting cold feet... :ohnoes:

35F with 13mph at 1000hrs = 26F windchill only improves to 37F/29F by noon! :ninja:

Warpspasm · Mar 22, 2015

I'll be there. If it gets so cold that I'm not having fun I'll just go home. It's only $10.
