AikiDale Posted February 20, 2004 Share Posted February 20, 2004 in Wyoming most of the folks wearing cammo are salt of the earth. People go to church in Realtree, and faded BDUs from someone's past military service don't seem to twitterpate anyone at our local ranges.Let's draw the line at face paint and ghillie suits, and cut the rest some slack. You Wyoming folks are so reasonable I have to wonder if that part of the country wasn't settled by wandering Kentucky boys. Warpspeed, I think your camo shotgun will be just fine.

rhino Posted February 20, 2004 Share Posted February 20, 2004 Dale, I think we should wear camo for the Kentucky Section Match! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AikiDale Posted February 20, 2004 Share Posted February 20, 2004 It really depends upon the weather. If it is raining I will be in Mossy Oak New Breakup pants, they are the only rain pants I own with belt loops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PacMan Posted February 20, 2004 Share Posted February 20, 2004 To camo or not camo is the hot button, seemed like. BTW, the US Marines digital pattern is so cool and PC, and Kurt, I think you should bring yours to Mesa along with that pink "spouse beater" tank top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AikiDale Posted February 21, 2004 Share Posted February 21, 2004 That brings up a good range lawyer point. Which is more politically incorrect, Military or Civilian Hunting camo ? I think Cabelas Seclusion 3D Konifer is THE fashion statement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtm Posted February 22, 2004 Share Posted February 22, 2004 PacMeister: I was out at the club today at the Metalic silohette range, doing rifle bounces and othere questionable things (at least to the old guard) wearing my good old/new pixel deasert cammo. There was an old guy there that wasn't to pleased with what I was doing; moving back and forth with a rifle??? Well it just isn't done!!! After we talked for a while, and he began to understand what I was doing ( Korea vets seem to catch on), the conversation got around to what I was wearing. Seem the club has a NO CAMMO policy!! The up side was he is on the board and he thought they were kind of cool! Those don't look like that ARMY crap! The knees are already padded? That looks like it would be cool in the summer! End line was where do I get a pair of those? By the way, he also liked the forward sight mount for the mouse gun and proceded to hit out to 500M with it, he declaired it "amuseing". Count on seeing them at Mesa!! KURTM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhino Posted February 22, 2004 Share Posted February 22, 2004 I was out at the club today at the Metalic silohette range, doing rifle bounces . . . Hey, Super 3-Gun Dude ... what are "rifle bounces"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtm Posted February 22, 2004 Share Posted February 22, 2004 A rifle bounce is done on two targets at 200yds. You engage both targets with 2 rounds each. On the beep you engage the two targets from any position higher than sitting, move 3-5yds, reengage from any position higher than prone, move, and at the last position reengage from any position. I was using two MGM flash targets. In an ideal world, you would engage 3 targets at 100, 200, 300, one hit each, no more than 2 rounds at any one target ( the old Gunsite way). Now you can see why he was a little concerned...moving....with a rifle....and it's loaded???? KURTM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhino Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 Thanks for the info ... I've never heard of a drill like that, but it sounds very useful. Did you invent it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PacMan Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 This drill really does help you get on target/into position much quicker. I've been doing it on 10" round paper cut outs, but doing it on a reactive target would be so much more fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtm Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 Rhino: Nope standard "orange" Gunsite drill. I do believe Col. Cooper came up with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErikW Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 And I thought you were hooking a finger in your belt loop through the trigger guard, holding the rifle (er, carbine for kurtm) at hip level, and "bouncing" the trigger to simulate full auto. Hey you said you were doing questionable things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike.45 Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 wearing my good old/new pixel deasert cammo ? Sounds like a set of pajamas I have - Matey, I will buy you a set so you feel at home M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhino Posted February 24, 2004 Share Posted February 24, 2004 Rhino:Nope standard "orange" Gunsite drill. I do believe Col. Cooper came up with it. I thnk I'll try to do something like that at 50 to 100 yards. I don't currently have access to anything beyond 100 yards, so that will have to do for me. As will paper targets! Now I just have to get the boyz in my crew to do some more rifle shootin'! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
