Have they sent out the Course of Fire? I have not seen one yet....
You are correct as most prefer a red dot Glock or a CORE M&P. I used to shoot a Sig P229 Sport with a slide mounted red dot and comped extension on the barrel about 3-4 years ago before selling it to get an STI for USPSA. I think the biggest issue in 3-gun pistols is holster safety. Not too many of the racegun holsters for STIs handle flopping on the ground as well as the fuller coverage holsters most of the striker-fired guns normally use.
Stage diagrams were sent to team captains for distribution to their team members on 3-25-14.
Anyone come up with an approx round count?
Normally I use either an iron sighted Bul M-5 in 9x23 or another M-5 in 9mm (Tac Ops). Unlike an STI you can use the same mags unmodified reliably for both rounds without any spacers. But for shooting in Open I prefer something with a C-more on it just because I am used to it.Personally, I usually run an iron sighted STI Edge in .40, restrained by Bladetech.
For some reason I never get the emails. It could have something to do with the fact that even at its best my handwriting looks like the death throws of a morphine addled rooster.....
It was a great match! Thank you for putting it together.
Some of the highlights were the long range rifle stage where you had to shoot your teammate's rifles, and the stage where you flipped over a card, got a color, and had to shoot only those color targets, tag your teammate, and repeat. Unfortunately it seemed like almost every team ran out of time on the card color stage.
Also, it looked like there was a team of young guys from the University of Maryland Rifle and Pistol Club (?). That was impressive and great to see.
On a related matter, will there be monthly 3 gun/multi gun matches at York IWLA this year, like there were last year? I see the multi gun match schedule has not been updated since the end of last year. So are you only planning to do a few big 3 gun matches this year, and the rest just Fun Shoots?
