    Is the intro course also offered that morning? And if so is that also 50% off. If so sounds like a great opportunity.

    Oh I am all over this! I have been wanting to shoot 3-Gun matches and it is a chicken-and-egg problem to shoot a match since they won't let you shoot without experience and no way to get experience without shooting.

    Submitted for both courses. Fantastic deal!

    I probably missed it, but what time do the courses start? I'm about 2 and a half hours away but would like to attend. Also, gear requirements?

    Yes the intro is included BUT you must also attend the main course. The deal is only for the Combo intro/main. Normally $300 but now $150 for both with the discount code.

    If you are experienced and want to attend just the main course the cost is still $150. Still a savings of $75

    Matt, I saw your sign up. Thanks! Ill process it by tomorrow. Just know that this is a pistol only class. Rifle and shotgun won't be covered. But you will get a lot of work with your pistol and will learn how action shooting sports work. I.e. basic universal safety rules, shooting a stage, range commands etc...

    I am looking to shoot a full-size Sig P320 in 9mm with a P320 Compact in .45ACP as a backup. I am using a Hogue PowerSpeed active retention holster for both. I have a weak side double mag carrier.

    Why no Serpa holsters? I've got a Sig P220 with a Blackhwwk CQC holster I am very comfortable with as well (been my carry setup for years).

    I'm good on mags, belt, ammo, eyes, ears and so on.

    I just want to make sure my gear is good rather that waste prople's time.

    You are good with the Hogue Powerspeed. The Serpa's make me nervous in the action pistol context. Draw speed is desirable and when folks go fast its easy for that trigger finger to stay in the vicinity of the trigger after they depress the retention release button on those Serpas.
    Stick with the P320 Full size 9mm for the class. Itll serve you the best of what you listed.

    Trevor,

    Your website includes Knee Pads in the list. Are they needed. If so any particular style. I've got a pair of construction type like flooring guys use. Or do you recommend a sports flex type like soccer or volley ball style.

    Also do we need a tactical or utility style competition style belt or will a good thick leather belt suffice?

    For this course knee pads aren't really needed.

    A thick rigid leather belt will work. Your holstered gun and mags should not be flopping around is the point.

    See you in a week!
