bigdawgbeav Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 So the S&W BUG match was cancelled... OK, it happens. But right now rumors are circulating that the IDPA Indoor Nationals are going to take a nose dive as well. I don't have and inside info or anything, but rumors are flying that there was a huge shake-up over at S&W and the new folks in charge are not keen on being the hosts/sponsors of these matches anymore. Anyone know what's going on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daytona955i Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 Anyone that actually knows anything, is not going to say a thing. The BUG match is one thing, cancelling Indoor Nationals would be a huge mistake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rowdyb Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 is there another facility that could hold an indoor match in the winter time for an Indoor Nationals? i've only shot the match once and it was just fine, though my year there was a chrono issue and it seemed parts of where we shot sure looked pretty old and run down.

valerko Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 I shoot with Colt employee and he was saying something about S&W buying a knife company and other crap and kind of waiting for actual outcome of the election. As she that shall not be named , may ruin business big time if she gets in . But take that with a grain of salt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuckstur Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 Perhaps the CZ takeover of production (1 DA shot, 16 SA shots) has them disinterested. No bashing implied, please don't flame me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GmanCdp Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 Chuckstur, I think you posted in the wrong section.. This is the IDPA section..Production is uspsa, not IDPA. Production is limited to 10 rounds per mag. IDPA is limited to 10 rounds per mag max SSP/ESP. Mag capacity of 16 SA shots does not matter in either game, unless you are shooting uspsa limited minor.

v1911 Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Maybe it has to do with a change in leadership at S&W. If the powers that be aren't/weren't as interested in the event as the previous persons, that could explain the drop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
