UPDATE !!!! We will HAVE 5 stages with no more than 20 rounds per stage if you choose the 1a route so bring you some ammo when you come !!!! Weather !!!!! We will shoot unless it is a Hurricane !!!! The weather man is actually calling for snow on Friday. So bring plenty of ammo, and some warm clothes. If there is a prone position we will have something for you to lay on to keep dryish ! I'd like to have a preliminary count of people coming so I can be ready for you. Please speak up, if you are gonna shoot or know someone who is gonna shoot ! Thanks, See you Saturday. Hopalong -

I'm going to add the Alabama state match to my USPSA revovler matches this year (just before Southern regional) so anyone interested come on over to Birmingham the 6th of March for some 6 gun fun !!! Hop -
Six Inch, Thanks, A revo squad at A-1 wouldn't be bad. I'll be shooting with the Staff though so it'll be 2 shorter. Flex, Thanks. I need a few GOOD ROs for the Memphis Charity Challenge. You can ride down with Chad and Pat. John, Don't say that too loud, She'll want me to PAY her too !!! I'd like to extend the "Challenge" to all to make the trip to Memphis and shoot the Memphis Charity Challenge in November. 10 stages all guns welcome, but only Revolvers recognized so just beg borrow or buy one to come shoot !!! Thanks all, Hopalong/Sam

Merlin, I'll add a couple of here heres to that !!!! I solved the problem by getting some "good" bullets and mark them as such (blue stripe on primer) and use the others on paper targets. Good luck, IF you decide you don't want to mess with them let me know and we'll do something at the High Plains Shotgun match. Hopalong

Sabre barrels are available in 16 inch Mid length gas system. Tim at Nordic has those barrels he was talking about. Both are great options. If you want light weight, get a carbon Fiber hadguard from Clark custom guns......it is pretty much a permanent install though. Hop

How long did it take you to get to: C, B, A, M, GM
hopalong replied to JeffWard's topic in USPSA/IPSC Shooting
Had I stayed with jsut 1 platform I would have made master in 3 years shooting LTD. After 2 years of shooting LTD I switched to Revo and dabbled in other divisions. I made Master in LTD in 4 years from the beginning. I made Master in L-10 in 5 years and Revo Master in 4 years of starting it. I just recently made Revo GM after not shooting it much in the last 2 years. Have been just "Playing around" for the last few years. Hop -
Roger, I'm glad you liked the stage I designed for you to enjoy !!! Looks like the poll says we'll be shooting the thing again !!! Now I have to figure out a way to let you guys/gals enjoy it again !! Hop

That is fine looking "Modified" Smith 625 that looks suprisingly similar to "bucket" Johns. Now you and he and some other of you "left coast" revolver shooters pinch your pennies and show up at the Memphis Charity Challenge in November. You won't regret it. Hopalong

I talked to Precision Delta yesterday. They are getting caught up with some calibers and others are still a little behind. Just call and ask Patricia. She'll be glad to help. Hopalong (BTW, been shooting thier stuff for 6 years now)

LeRoy, I'll see you in Idaho Falls. I've done 5 USPSA Nationals, I'm giving them a break until they aren t "just another oversized Area match" and are really the US National Championships Like in 2005 (24 stages and plenty of shooting) Hop Edit for spelling.
