Sees Sights Lift

Sees Sights Lift (7/11)

  1. One year ago today, we lost Trevor Graves to suicide. "I never saw it coming" is the understatement of the century. Anyone who knew him has struggled with this over the last year, and some days are definitely harder than others. I can think of no better way we could have honored him than by this match last weekend. TENET GROUP LLC was his brainchild, and he'd be happy to see how far it has come. Run N Gun was also his passion, as he enjoyed bringing 5th Group guys into competitive shooting - and exposing competitive shooters and civilians to all the things 5th Group does. And spending time with friends in this atmosphere was right up his alley. The only way it could have been better was if he were there himself. I'm honored to share that we raised $10,000 with this one match alone for the Trevor Graves Fund, which is held in trust by the Special Forces Charitable Trust. Hopefully it will do the family and their mission some good. Thank you so much for helping to make this happen.

  9. Email just went out to all competitors (including staff) with the basic details and run order for Saturday night. We've had some staff with Yahoo email addresses not get emails this year, and historically Gmail has been bad to quarantine mass emails from us. Message me if you didn't get an email but think you should have.
  10. I am thankful and not surprised at all to welcome Pete Jones with Alan's Arsenal LLC back as a sponsor. Pete has supported our matches since the very beginning, so please look to him first anytime you might need gun parts and accessories: https://alansarsenal.3dcartstores.com/
  11. I am proud to announce Noveske Rifleworks is not only sponsoring the event (talking full rifle builds for the prize table), but sending two runners to compete alongside us! Check them out at https://noveske.com/
  12. Jay wants to have a "Gear Swap" Table at start/finish. Bring any DECENT (don't bring junk!) Run N Gun gear you've outgrown that you're willing to donate to help newer shooters and runners get started. And feel free to TAKE whatever gear is on the table you could you yourself put to use, and make a donation to the Trevor Graves Fund in exchange. There will be no prices - give whatever you'd like to give. But put that gear TO USE. Do NOT take any gear to re-sell. And spread the love - be sure everyone gets a chance at the gear instead of one or two people just taking it all.
  13. Minimum hit count is as follows: 61 rifle 47 pistol There will be SEVERAL places where having more ammo than that may benefit you, depending on how you choose to shoot different situations. And conditions will be tough, making you very likely to miss. I'm bringing double that count, and highly suggest you bring at least that too.
  14. I visited the new range this weekend, and HOLY CHIT Jay and his guys have done a TON of work and have some very cool things in store for you. He wanted MOAR for this match, and he's got it. We ran the course Saturday night, and it's by far the most difficult night course I've ever done just due to the terrain and the conditions. As usual, our Garmins disagreed on the numbers - but expect somewhere between 4 - 5 miles with LOTS of elevation change. We will NOT be going down into the cave (this time!), but you may wish for the cool goodness of that cave by the time you're done. He's nailing down final details, but there's a very good possibility of flamethrowers, machineguns, hidden targets, several caches to find and exploit along the way for later advantage, mental puzzles and observational tests, historical references, and so much more I can't even put it all into words. Live competitor tracking and display at the start/finish line, coffee and snack trucks, bonfires, and more are also in play to keep you occupied while not running. I'm doing everything I can to help make sure things run smoothly and efficiently, but in all honesty we're so far outside of any "norms" I have historical data for I'm guessing at best. Please be patient if we have glitches this first match and things run long. As I mentioned before - there's a very good chance we'll be doing the awards ceremony after the sun comes up Sunday morning. I can't wait for everyone to see what he's put together! Ignore the duration below as we were stopping and talking/testing/looking at all the shooting stages along the way, but this is the distance and elevation I got with Guru Maps. Be ready - or if you won't be ready, be warned.
  15. I finally got a night match video to work halfway decently! Check it out to see what you missed this weekend and what you can look forward to next time if you come join us:
