Looking for a tactiCOOL place

[carbonDRED]

Talked to the guys at Delmarva. They sound stellar. I'm heading out there first thing this Thursday. I'll do Peacemaker next Friday (or this one if I'm feeling super squirrelly lol). Anyone want to meet up?

Not what he is talking about. Take any of these competition guys and put them in a shoot house/ self defense scenarios where threats actually move and their groups get measured in feet.

I would invite you to come to one of the matches.. And be surprised some of them "competition guys" are in law enforcement..

Aside from the ones who have gun jobs and actually train shooting self defense. Believe me, they didn't get their training from IDPA, etc...

ABSOLUTELY! And going out and shooting those matches are great....but where do you practice before? That's what I'm trying to figure out.

Close to impossible unless you have a place and equipment (moving targets or Sims).

Unless you take a class or go to tom p's shoot house.

I am off weekends now, someone set it up at DelMarva because I'm too lazy and I'll teach.

Then that's EXACTLY the point of this thread. I want to bring it into the realm of possibility. Let's make something happen! Someone's gotta know someone with some land or SOMETHING!

Delmarva's risky on weekends. They don't "reserve" ranges, and if they get busy, they want people to be able to have access. Weekdays are probably better. And what's your experience? What will we be learning if you're teaching? (Not a disrespectful tone. Just curious)

Lol.. Good luck.

Best and cheapest is try out 3-gun.. Closest tacticool you can get into just don't mention it to masterblaster.. Lol

If you want to travel.. Tom is the best bet.

I can say I have a little bit of experience. Since this will never happen.... I can fantasize an informal day with some chat about mindset, drawing, close quarters shooting, and shoot while moving. A door frame with an operating door w steel targets would be great. Simple but very fun stuff.

Such a pessimist! I'm in. I think I can get a couple others too.

Heads up guys. My company is running courses in Taneytown MD that might be relevant to this thread. Once we get to know you via our courses it might be possible to set up some regular practice sessions involving just what you guys are talking about at our private range hook up.
PM me for more info. -Trevor

IWLA in York, exit 10 off 83 North

They are holding a major 3 gun match this weekend. Too late to get in, Bring Eyes and Ears (Mandatory to be on the range) and come watch. If this is what you want, they do this every month. This weekend is the BIG match, so don't expect this much every month but it will be pretty close.
Monthly Funshoots use some of the props from the match and are slowed down with little to no movement. Funshoots do NOT allow Rifle caliber ARs, only pistol caliber ARs allowed, too close to the steel. Funshoots are geared for beginners, shoot a funshoot and talk to the range master (Gary) to find out about getting into a match if that is what you want.

^^^^^^THIS^^^^^^ Fun shoots are an incredible easy/fun way to get started w/o a full blown class/competiton.
