Huge thanks to Mike and Joe for a fun season!

Ok guys, I have decided on the Benelli m2 with a 21" barrel. Now the question is, where am I going to buy it? It looks like Arnzen has exactly one, but I like shopping around for the best price so where else can I look? Mostly online, because I think I have checked everywhere else locally. Tha...

Did we go to the same event last year? I got some great deals that week

Sign me up for anything involving helicopters

It's a pretty quick drive from MPLS to a fantastic range and well worth it in my opinion. 9 stages and chance to learn by watching some great shooters.

This.

If you enjoy shooting USPSA, these are some of the best and most challenging stages of the season.

I guess if it were me with the appendix holster, I'd be willing to do something "different" in order to be allowed to use it vs being told "your gear isn't welcome here." If I've caused some thinking, then I guess that devil's advocate mission has been a success. Hopefully I did...

How do you handle the timer for a low ready start? Add time? How much? I draw really slow -- I need to figure out if Id be better off starting from low ready ;) For you? I'll just add 30 seconds and call it a day :) However, technically I don't believe a low ready start is legal in a USPSA stage un...

Oh, and a thought regarding the RO being able to see the holstering process: just have the shooter rotate 60 degrees toward their strong hand. They won't violate the 180 and you'll be able to see everything they're doing without putting yourself in harm's way. Doesn't help on the draw, I know, but ...

Wait, there are divisions other than Production?

I don't have any problem with carrying a gun in the appendix position. It's reholstering after "Make Ready" when I (or the current RO) can't clearly see the gun (Is your finger out of the trigger guard?), and when the shooter (with any experience level) draws "at speed" that mak...

Oh I crash plenty - I just try to hide it from most of you by shooting at other clubs on other days

Well if I ever received a healthy dose of karma it was tonight. Duke reminded me we were only 0.7% off each other's standings for the season. What did I do? Shoot my worst oakdale match in history.

Whoops

Just saw the scores from last week got posted, and bah, that's 2 weeks in a row now where if I could exchange a mike for a delta on the classifier stage, it would have bumped me up a class (D-->C, nothing special for many people, but it'd mean a lot to me). I guess my plan for this afternoon is ...

I bought various 3/8" gongs and poppers from Shootsteel, The Target Man and MGM this year. I hadn't planned on going with three different vendors but each had something I wanted that the others didn't. What I gathered from talking to each vendor is that while they all use AR-500 steel they eac...

Just ran across about 10 more of these little pressure cookers at OGC, so I thought I shorten up and repeat my warning from last year. FWIW the batch of Freedom Munitions I ordered in 9mm (new) last month was all loaded into Ammoload brass. This month's order now uses IMT brass (which the intertube...
