And yes, I'm in!!

Do not make me quintuple-click you again! Robert

Funny, I've seen several references to Pro filling and AM being open last year in this thread. I found out about this match very late last year (late July) and wanted to shoot AM, but ended up having to shoot Pro because I was told AM was full. As it was explained to me by Linda, there were about 25 last minute AM cancellations due to the Hurricane that came up the east coast during the week of the Pro-Am. That's what seperates the Pro from the Am- the Pros kissed the dog goodbye, petted the wife on the head, and figured the house might still be standing when they got back. Roger that! If the wife can't handle a hurricane by herself then it's time to get a new one. That would be a tempest, not hurricane!! And you guys better lay low if Mrs. Miculek is reading.

If I don't get into Pro and have to shoot AM I promise to shoot everything weakhand. I'll even go buy a left handed Benelli, a left handed Stag Arms Model 3GL and left handed holster for my Glock. I guess if I didn't get into the Pro match I could just come out and RO. That would be fun too. Oh man, that's a no win for us AMs. Not only do we get thumped, but it is by a guy shooting weak hand!! Would be cool to see you load the shotgun though.

No need to be defiant!

I did last year. It was the most enjoyable match I've RO'ed. Laid back, good food, and I still get a kick out of sharing some of the AM stories. The best was when Devon Niederbrach couldn't quite get high enough over the back window of the car on AM5 to get the last popper. No big deal, he put one through the rear windshield, hitting the popper in the process. How about the knucklehead that came back to AM5 after about 2 hours to pick up his AR that wasn't in his gun bag at the next stage Of course I have my favorite stories too. Like, while waiting for my next run at the 4x4 post shoot, there was some confusion over the scheduling. An unnamed, very appreciated RO announces to the Pros " hold on guys, we're gonna shoot some AMs first.". I got the hell out of there!!

Hey GW, you should go ahead and sign Jesse up for being your promotion director. And if it keeps him, and his Mom, out of AM, first beer is on me.!! :D

All right, All right. It wasn't that long ago I was a BE Forum virgin. Thanks for all the shout outs, though!!

You would bump some poor AM from getting to shoot their first ever 3-Gun match possibly? If I got unlucky and didn't get into the Pro match I would bump my Mom from the AM match in order to shoot at the Rock!!! The trip up north to beautiful Kentucky when its 100 plus and everything is dead and ugly in Oklahoma in the heat of Summer to spend 3 days shooting and partying with my shooting buddy's from across the county. Plus I plan to drive or fly home thru Nashville again Monday so I get to hang on the strip in the Meccas a free live music. Everything surrounding this match is awesome! Dude, you already posted your top 64 e-mail from 3GN, no AM for you!!!

Grip It, Rip It, and Click It!!!

Love this forum. I post some general questions about a Mark Otto Load 2 belt. In addition to some good user feedback, guess who contacts me? Yep, Mark Otto. He gave me lots of advice and ideas an how best to use the belt. He even offered to help me ID the belt as a 'skinny' or 'big boy' if I send some pics. Just great to get that type of support on a product I bought from the classifieds!! Thanks, Mark!

I had one recently, but not a true squib. After the last shot, which we heard hit steel, when I showed clear an empty casing fell out about 1/3 full of powder. WEIRD?!? We checked the barrel, no squib.

How did you get everybody to stand out of the way!! :roflol:

I run a Troy battlerail too, and love it. How do you like the geissele trigger? Is it a drop-in? 1 or 2 stage?

How do you like the JP trigger? I am thinking of updating my M&P15. Is it a drop-in? 1 or 2 stage?

She's a beauty. I run a SJC Titan comp on my AR. Man, that is a fine piece of machinery!!

Thanks to everybody for the feedback. I will do some dry runs and let you know how it goes.

Cool, I got it. I will give you a call tomorrow.

I shoot a Rem 1100 Competition Master, with a Dave's EZ Load gate. So far, so good.

What choke do you typically run the majority of the time?

My search yielded no results for Mark Otto Load 2, so I will start. For those using them, you using strong or weak hand? What type of par times? Where do you put your slugs, if needed?
