If you sign up for Saturday at 1, are you able to (without interfering the match) look at the stages an hour or two before 1pm? Also if you sign up and pick a slot. Can you cancel a week or less if something comes up? My much younger brother will be starting college in the Fall and I am uncertain of his schedule and where he is going. He will be joining me at our first larger match. We usually shoot local clubs and this will be a first for both of us. Thanks

How does the 8am Saturday and Sunday work? Saturday you shoot until you finish half the stages? Sunday you finish the other half? Same I assume for the Saturday/Sunday afternoon spots. Looking to try a match other than a local club match. Thanks

It seems the more people that show up, the more "Phil" has to conform to a more "normal" life or behavior. I would never let go of making popcorn with a flame thrower no matter who showed, lol.

Thank you gentleman, I will try that and bring the pad along to test.

Thought about making a thread, but alot of good answers on here.... Lost a set screw in an older Henning "H500 base pad w/ set screw". Do I need to go through Henning, or is it a screw that can be found at a local store? Thank you

We have been watching it. Gets more entertaining as more people show up.

Looking to purchasing a shadow and have an excessive amount of 147gr xtremes from my M&P. Very good info, thanks.

Sold local. Thanks for the interest.

I also contoured, reduced and stippled the factory grips. As well as put a new extractor and overpowered spring a couple hundred rounds ago. Thanks again.

I think it's a great deal, but I am willing to ship to Enos members for a little price break. It's mine, I just don't post here often to have enough to sell in the classifieds. But I do read alot of info on here. Thanks for the spot light on it. It has been a great work horse. I have been letting my little brother (18 yrs) shoot it last season and the begining of this one. He has jumped in with both feet and bought his own limited elite witness a week ago and now this one will sit. Little SOB ran a four stage qualifier last weekend after joining the USPSA the prior week before and looks like he is gonna be an "A" shooter. Looks like his much older "B" shooter brother did something right, and I sure this setup helped, lol. Pm or ask about anything on the gun. Never had a problem with it and still runs like a top. Bought it from a member on here who was local as well. Thanks guys. Lots of good info on here.

Thank you for coming and for the kind input. It was our first year taking over the responsibility of the Monster Match and definitely a template for the next one. The match directors are from opposite ends of the spectrum and "gel" incredibly well together, especially under the crunch. Two good guys that I am very happy to call friends.

Well it was a success. Thanks to all who came. We had *67 shooters and 67 door prizes. We raffled off an M&P 9mm with a custom trigger job from an amazing local smith. The event ran smooth, and the shooters all had smiles. The best part was every single dime of the $6,000 dollars we raised from the event and our sponsers went to the USO of Missouri! Check out the Facebook page to see some of the pics, shooter videos, and any other information to get you there next year.

The event is this Sunday!!! Last I saw was over 65 shooters pre registration. Raffle table is looking good, Midway USA, Xtreme bullets, Hornady, Dawson Precision, Asymmetric Solutions, local tactical shops and gun stores, and many local Missouri businesses. Good times, Great people, Excellent cause!!

Thanks for your help on this LikesToShoot, much appreciated. Glad the Columbians are coming. A couple buddies and I shot out at Green Valley in June. The "movers" from the Bianchi cup were incorporated in a stage. Very cool. Each stage has a specific par time. Two on paper anywhere is 10 points and steel is 10pts. The most points per division wins. The par time is generally set up for an A class or better Olympic sprinter on Cocaine. It is unlikely you will max out every stage, but not impossible to come close. Stage props, suspended bridges, peek a boo texas stars, etc. all play a factor. All done in a safe manner of course. Fun is the emphasis and hosing targets is just a side perk. Although, in the event of a tie, there is a shoot off.

That's great! Thanks for getting on board and bringing friends. Thats a big part of it. Having a good time with good people, doing good thing's for great people. Looking forward to the match as well. I am just a small cog in the machine behind the fundraising match. But a great cause indeed!

https://clubs.practiscore.com/2014-uso-charity-monster-match/register Here is the pre registration link for the match.

Thats great! Hopefully bring a buddy or two to join in the hosiery. The template now for divisions mimic the USPSA. Open, limited, production, single stack and revoler. Pre register starts tomorrow. Our hearts are definitely in it for the soldiers, USO, and our shooters. We want this to succeed this year and many years to come. Thank you

There will be a prize table, it will be random raffle draw. Not placement based so the emphasis is FUN and charitable. Paper placement awards will be provided to gauge improvement when you come back next year I will try and list random draw prizes as they become available, but it is not what you take home and try and sell on here, it's about giving back through the hobby/sport that gives you fulfilment, challenge, and or release on the weekends.

You shouldn't miss it, happens once a year. You can shoot a regular USPSA match every month, hell every weekend there is one 60-90min or less around St.louis area. These are basically oversized 50 round count or better USPSA courses of fire anyway. Same equipment, two on paper, shoot 'em as they become visible, run and gun fun. All in the name of charity! Help the people that help our troops that help us be MURICA!

https://m.facebook.com/profile.php?id=192645384138168 This is a link to the Facebook page. The date has been set for Sunday October 26th. If you can donate time, money, items for the raffle table, or anything else 100% of it goes to the Missouri USO. Our match directors and crew are paying full entry to the match. 100% goes to the USO!

Bench Rest Rifle Range http://www.shootingstl.com/drupal/ You do not need to be a member to shoot event this or any other pistol discipline matches. Gates will be open.

It was called the MONSTER MATCH in past years and still may be? The idea and control was just offered to the Bench Rest Rifle Club match coordinaters of the IDPA, USPSA, and 3gun events. The FAMILY of members that used to organize it has done a fantastic job with it and has given thousands to the USO of Missouri. They are no longer able to run the event and my friends, the match directors, are looking for any sort of help to make these events HUGE! The details, ideas, and volunteers are just starting to progress. In the past it was five stages with a MINIMUM round count of 50 rounds per stage with steel and two hits on paper all under a stage par time. Sounds fun right? Fun and charity is the focus here. As the details and *sponsors roll in, I will share the info or start another thread. This is just a heads up to all the shooters of Missouri and surrounding states to keep the end of October open to do something good with your pistol for someone else. I know we don't have a lot of time, but this first year will be a template for many years to come. Thank you for taking the time to read this. *Sponsors and volunteers are needed. Still working out the details as stated above. Rough draft: Stage sponsors in various levels. Silver, Gold, Platinum levels etc. Raffle items Silent Auctions Prize table Awards

That same Match I was asking about the trigger swap earlier, can you just put in a 9mm barrel and mags or do you need a whole conversion slide to switch calibers? Looking to shoot it in 3gun. Sorry not to knowledgeable in the ways of the Tanfoglio. Thank you

I bought a used .40 Match a year ago from the classified section on here. It came with an uninstalled Henning Trigger. But, it is the longest version and I have been graced with short stubby sausage fingers. My stock trigger is really starting to lean. Instead of buying a whole new one I was curious if anyone would trade trigger for trigger? Looking for the medium if possible? I have everything else in the bags and tried using the trigger pin on the stock trigger instead of the factory roll pin. Really did not help. Thank you
