  1. Yes changes will put inserted into the rule book on the app, and online rule documents....
  2. A rule book rewrite has been published and is in draft at this time. Www.uspsa.com/rulebook
  3. Seems this is a good time to mention the draft 2019 rules currently posted to USPSA....
  4. Yes... hit www.ncsection.org All matches are listed there.
  5. On a PCC? Sure muzzle on the ground... break it open... pull the BCG..
  6. Some people recently have carried bolts on their belt for PCC... and one person even mentioned a squib rod and a hammer.... Whatcha think George? It wouldn’t be worth the score but someone will do it or need to do it....
  7. Congrats!! I’m hoping we hear more good news in this regard for you!
  8. You could use PractiScore... Depending on what/how you score I’m sure there is a match type that would work for you... You could make the handicap a penalty or time add. Just depends on how you score it..
  9. I specifically asked Troy about this bump to open. Troy said the rule clearly handles it and no bump to open.
  10. I have seen a few anatomically challenged competitors that could not do 2 inches even if they wanted to.. I can see how they would get exempted by an RM..
  11. I used to track and share all kinds of helpful rule items like this here.. Then the pick forks came out on this very forum a few years ago... now I share it only within a private group..... No good deed....
  12. I personally know the owners of shooters world. Great people!! For 9 and .40 clean shot is all I have used since 2015 or so when I found it locally. But shooters world’s powder mags and primary offices are close by... I think I have 20-30 lbs on the shelf..
  13. If you haven’t heard this years nationals will have 6 potential classifiers......
  14. And a few other files we use to have available https://www.dropbox.com/sh/jht8rvj35x6ytyl/AACfTkXaRwB9DXDKjCagvO1ia?dl=0
  15. https://www.dropbox.com/s/u1ps44dp98fgzx4/Arbitration_Form.pdf?dl=0 Here ya go..
  16. AHHHH PULLING BUTTS!!!! Such fond memories of this from the Rifle Ranges in the Marines... UBER COLD mornings in the BUTTS.. and uber HOT humid days under those concrete parapets... Imagine pulling butts every day for a week solid!! Boot camp and then every year on active duty when you are not deployed.... While I have never shot NRA High-power or Service rifle it sounds alot like what we called the KD (Known Distance) Course. 200,300 and 500 yards- with 5 stages of fire-- 15 rounds in 20 min at the 200 slow fire(sitting, kneeling and offhand 5 rounds each)-- 10 rounds at 200 yard rapids fire 70 seconds Standing to Sitting (5 from each of 2 magazines)-- 5 rounds rounds slow fire (Sitting) at the 300 yard line-- 10 rounds rapid fire Standing to Prone in 70 seconds (much like the 200 and the easiest stage of the day-- 10 rounds prone from the prone position at the 500 yard line.... The difference I see is we used the B Mod Target and the Dog target ... What you are showing looks like the "able" target.... Anyway--- thanks for the walk down memory lane!
  17. have you emailed support@practiscore.com or posted here: https://answers.practiscore.com/ DJ watches that and will respond ASAP..
  18. We have a competitor in NC that never uses belt loops... due to his anatomical characteristics, his belt never moves... He posted a video somewhere.... George is right it hasn’t changed since the 2008 (with changes) rule book..
  19. IT is a we will charge more to pay people to paste since some won't do it... That is when the cheap ones will start pasting...
  20. I have an email chain going between a few BOD members. The gist of it is that every example presented to date is a GM PCC shooter that hasn’t shot a classifier in a pistol discipline in a significant period of time... meaning they likely don’t show skill improvement on pistol. So there is the opinion this is not a real thing and when asked for examples to prove them wrong— I see this response. I’m actively trying to help your cause. But if no one has examples, I’ll gladly drop it. Point here is— in the grand scheme of things there are a number of other challenges being worked on at HQ. And while this bears merit, I don’t see them dropping other priorities when the complaint comes without any evidence. I’m on your side... show me something and I will present it. If this is just a waste of time, I too could be doing other things..
  21. So do you have examples of these mediocre shooters with GM in PCC and a lot less in pistol? If you have good examples I’d do the write up and take this to Foley... But I’d need a number of examples... Otherwise this will be laughed off the stage..
  22. Add $40 or so for a battery pack and case Then a case to put it in.. most folks have been adding $50 of extras to these things... and the extra charging cords etc....
  23. I get it.. Like I said before. BUT you have people that will NEVER learn and NEVER WANT to learn... That won't change.. We have a volunteer sport, and some people only want to shoot... Some people won't even paste.. so getting them to learn to use the tablet is not gonna happen... Instead of printing a WSB, your solution is to put a SECOND tablet on the stage for someone to mess with and have stats to monitor? How many stats guys want to have to handle another stage device and batteries etc? Do you even understand how crazy that sounds? Printing an official copy is the way to go until tablets are indestructible in a kiosk mode that can't be messed with. I am sure most competitors would rather we spend $900 to $1400 on prizes than 9 to 14 tablets and the protective covers. Cheap is a matter of perspective.. I heard of a major recently that asked the RO's to not take their stipends..... RO's would rather we spend that on a stipend, a staff dinner, hotel expenses etc.. for the cost of a single tablet I can print lots of copies of WSB and have a fresh copy every session or even squad!! I totally get the teaching technology issues... I spend my days working with CIOs, IT Directors and Managers to get the IT departments to understand things like BGP, OSPF, SD-WAN, IPv6, Stateful packet inspection and Deep packet inspection... or Wireless multipath distortion, frequency diversity in complex RF environments. or even simple stuff like Spanning-Tree... YMMV.. but shooters MOSTLY careless about HOW the scoring works, they just want it to work... And this creates the problems where we lose great stats people-- Like JC down in Ga... burnout.. Again this is a volunteer sport with no incentive to learn the tablet... What I have to constantly defend against using technology: there is a point that TOO much use and dependency on technology is a bad thing.. To go FULL electronic at a match, we need a complete Primary system and a full backup. Every device must have a backup, and in some cases a tertiary backup. If we don't do this right, a match is ruined, a stage is tossed. all for the sake of what exactly?
