Look at a target you know he shot, look at the grease ring and how the hits look, compare the other target to it, the other hits will not look the same, plus the other r.o. remember the previous hits. Not hard to do.

Read rule 6.2.4.1

Not this guy, has to walk the stage twice, always loading mags, he was bragging about how great his Glock trigger was, on an unloaded start, puts a mag in, racks the slide, bang! Shot hits the ground 5 feet in front of him. I said man that trigger is awesome isn't it.

I have shot matches where a guy shot 2 divisions in 1 match, so he shot 2 guns on 1 squad, he doubled the work for us and cut his reset time down to practically 0, he also shot pee see see while he had a pistol on, should have just DQ'd him. If shooting multiple times on different squads I don't see a problem with it.

A sidewall is not considered a berm at many ranges.

6.2.4.1

Thanks

2.1.8.5 says they can be shot at anytime. How can you give an FTSA when it has been shot at within the rules?

Yes, have you?

So where would 2 Mike's 1 ftsa come from? If anything 1 procedural, but I don't know what procedural would apply. It wouldn't be for failing to follow WSB unless it was level 1 and says it has to be a activated prior to being shot at.

Wrong, it says you can shoot them if you can see them.

Say a swinger is activated by a stomp pad, you shoot it ( 2 Alpha) and never activate it. How would you score it?

it says is engage all targets weak hand only. How is a single stack shooter or revolver going the shoot this stage without touching their gun with their strong hand after the start signal? How are all shooters going to ULSC and Holster with just their weak hand?

WSB says Engage all targets WHO. It isn't hard, do whatever you want as long as you engage (shoot at) targets with WHO. WSB doesn't say you have to pick the gun up with your WHO, only engage targets WHO. I would arbitrate any procedural given for touching the gun with string hand to pick up the gun, reload, clear a malfunction. If you want to give someone a procedural for touching the gun with your strong hand, how are they going to unload and show clear? Make them do it WHO? What about Holatering after if clear hammer down? Do they have to holster WHO? Remember the course of fire starts at make ready and end at range is clear.

I use Dreamearz solid plugs with pro ears electronic muffs when shooting open. infinity open guns with 3n38 seems to be the loudest and have the most blast wave of any open guns. my ears ring all the time even when doubled up.

yes it does and must be applied at make ready. if there is a strap like on a uncle mikes holster held on with velcro, from the factory, would it have to be applied? Can serpa holsters have a wedge put in them to defeat the lock? does a weber tactical retention holster have to have the hood flipped up over the hammer to lock it in place? If you are going to use this kind of thing, just take it off when you are the on deck shooter or get a decent holster.

Any retaining strap on a holster can be removed, nothing is permanent. If it is attached, it is permanent until it is removed.

An email from Troy is not a ruling, it is just his opinion and unless he is the RM at the match it doesn't matter what he said. 5.2.5.3 says you must use it. If DNROI makes an Actual ruling then it would be ok.

You never heard of light strikes on a primer? I had some yesterday but on second pull they went bang. Your method can allow someone to holster and walk around with a loaded gun.

Foley said they go by address for the citizenship requirement. I seriously doubt USPSA is verifying addresses. Anyone can use a fake address or even a fake name, all USPSA cares about is getting money and new members. Since citizenship is the requirement, uspsa needs to follow their bylaws that they changed and residency does not equal citizenship.

I am too skeptical to believe it just turned out that way.

True, some MDs ask people that DQ a lot to find another hobby.

Based on a comment Mike Foley posted to Vince Pinto, it came during his term. If someone wanted to buy the election 1,000 or 2,000 memberships would probably be enough to do it, just have to use US addresses.

When the incumbent wants to remain in office and makes the rules...

Election started already. A little late to have his info posted in a magazine, I am sure it wasn't done on purpose.
