Just a bit of information... ICORE is not a 501c3, and ICORE does have the right to finalize the election process as it occurred. Any further posting by the originator really should be done factually, and the originator may want to consider responding to the chairman instead of using this forum in a way that probably wasn’t intended.

The person who posted the question has not been a current ICORE member for 18 months and would not have received ICORE news describing election process and results. Overdue memberships and other monies owed to the organization would be causes of non-membership. The chairman is always available to discuss miscellaneous issues at chair@icore.org. Happy holidays everyone!

Universal Shooting Academy to Host 2016 International Revolver ChampionshipLos Osos, CA, January 17, 2016 – The International Confederation of Revolver Enthusiasts (ICORE) is proud to announce Universal Shooting Academy (USA), Frostproof, FL, as the host for the 2016 International Revolver Championship (IRC) under the direction of Shannon Smith, a professional at the top of the competitive action pistol world. The championship is scheduled for November 3-6, 2016, and moves to the east side of the United States for the first time, bringing a fresh spin to an historical event. ICORE is excited for its east coast members who will have an opportunity to follow in the footsteps of fellow west coast revolver shooters and travel to their first IRC! Shooters will compete in one of four revolver divisions from Classic to Limited to Open. Limited 6, a fourth ICORE division just added this year, will be an option for those shooters who want to compete with their 6-shot moon clip guns that were once the meat of ICORE’s Limited Division. The IRC is the marquee match on ICORE’s competition calendar and showcases top revolver shooters from around the world. Stillwater Firearms Association of Fallon, NV, hosted the 2015 IRC, which was generously supported by premier sponsors Apex Tactical Specialties and Hogue, Inc., both with owners or managers who have been avid revolver competitors and regular faces at past IRCs held in San Luis Obispo, CA. This year’s IRC will close ICORE’s Regional championships, which encompass a match series from seven geographical regions in the United States plus Australia. Florida, home to four of the eleven ICORE clubs that comprise the Southern Region, has been the fastest growing state in terms of new members to the sport of competitive revolver shooting. Frank Garcia founded Universal Shooting Academy in 1986 and thanked ICORE for giving USA the opportunity to host the match as the IRC celebrates its 25th year. Frank and Shannon host major national and world handgun events throughout the year at the world-known facility. Not only does Shannon serve as an instructor, but he is responsible for coordinating and producing all of these competition events at USA. ICORE welcomes new 2016 club affiliates from Canada, Sweden, and South Africa, and, in conjunction with Universal Shooting Academy, invites independent revolver shooters everywhere and shooters from all of its other member clubs in the United States, Canada, Australia, and Europe, to IRC 2016 and all of the attractions central Florida offers!

U R 2 funny, Craig. No worries.... it's just fun to pick on Cliff. I should be there around Thursday noon to watch how it's supposed to be done. Wear shorts and get some sun on those legs, dude. -MELANIE

Now wait a minute. Who said I wanted to shoot with Cliff? For real, all I did was sign up to squad with a few Central FL guys I know, then when I got the squad notice, boom.... there's Cliff. I said to myself.... how did that happen? Then I remembered little Cliffy seeks to move from GM to Rocket Scientist. I drive my toys around in a GMC suv, and now they're calling me Grand Master Chick. Wow, I'm movin' up fast, but poor Cliff is still stuck at GM revo. P.S. Be nice to ladies learning revo.

I'll be there on Fri-Sat (same squad as Cliff). I'm probably the rookie revo in the group. SSR-SS

Would it make a difference if the rocket scientist were a girl, who is from the same place as that Smitty guy, and who managed to get a revolver stowed in a mid-deck locker on a Shuttle flight? Wouldn't that really be the biggest accomplishment? That mikey357 guy sounds sensible. The rest of you... come to your senses. Vote "rocket scientist".
