    I had a good time!

    I got to practice a rifle jam/clear/anger.

    Man, that heat hurts an old man.

    That heat hurt all of us (even the kind of old men)

    I thought things went fairly well on both Saturday and Sunday. Everyone was safe and had good attitudes. We got some good constructive criticisms and zero complaints.

    We look forward to future expansion and making the AGC at great place for Action shooting. Events for the next 45 days or so are

    I don't think, and only bring this up for clarification, Arlington events are not open to the public. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

    Constructive Criticisms:

    I learned yesterday that the Hesco barriers can not be used as berms for rounds shot. I wonder if hills of dirt can be piled to protect them for some wider range angle of shooting. I don't see you coming close to 180° and that's limiting to COF creation.

    I couldn't figure out how to join from their website, either.

    My only post-match suggestion is to put up the stage plans ahead of time on Practiscore, or at least give a sense of how many rounds (minimum) from each kind of ammo to neutralize all targets on a stage. I would have loaded out a little different if I had known how few non-shotgun reloads I'd need to do. To be clear, though, I thought the round counts were fine.

    I'd also advocate for matches on Sundays. You had a few Orthodox Jews show up, and they ain't gonna be able to make Saturdays. Admittedly, things are what they are with scheduling, but it's something to consider.

    Arlington Action Shooting Events are open to guests (excluding carbine clinics)

    Noted on the 180 - we are exploring options. Thank you for the feedback.

    We will consider posting CoF in advance. Good idea. Sundays are wide open on the Calendar at this point. That said, AGC AS 3 Gun Events will typically be held on the 2nd Saturday of Each month. Once that match grows in popularity, then maybe we can find someone to run Sunday matches as well. It is hard to make everyone happy, but we will do our best.
