Eagle Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Being Polish as an excuse for not reading...Marcy read it and was not amused. So I'm confused, Sheldon. Do you want me to move SWANDME to Open Division or just change his t-shirt size to a SMEDIUM.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swandme Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Actually I am only half Polish ( my favorite half ) . I read just missed that part. Now I really stepped in it and got Marcy mad at me too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lmccrock Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 I'm planning on flying with just my Garand ammo, and maybe slugs. Where's the best spot between Austin and the range for me to pick up some .45 and 12gauge? DanO When are you getting in? http://www.gtdist.com/GTAUSTSHOWROOM.htm should work if they are open. Other wise there should be some walmart/academy locations between you and there. You might call GT Dist. to be sure. They are mostly a cop shop, so good for 45 and buck and slugs, not so much for birdshot. Also, they sell retail, but some stuff is LE only By the way, Trapr Swonson is signed up for Tactical Division. I believe Red Neck Tactical has been working with Bushnell.

And idiot deer wandering out onto the range every hour or so. "Gunner - sabot - deer - 1200!" I assume an M1 or a Brad would be in Open, right?

lmccrock Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 oK i'VE GOT A 12GA AND 0BK that is 12 pellets, I got these as all prior Outlaw/Idpa/USPSA ThreasWeapoines matches required these. Will it work? Sorry, it is 00B for 12 gauge. By the way, in a test yesterday, a buckshot target went down with 4 pellet hits of 00, so not hard to knock down.

FishingFool Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Sheldon, will there be water out there like last year? I'm not bringing food b/c of that delicious BBQ but I'm wondering about how much water to haul from the truck. Sent using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, there will be refreshments as we had last year, but there's always a chance that when you need a drink there would be a long line or a temporary shortage. Enjoy what's provided but having your own backup is always a good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Water/Gatorade/etc Snacks Eye Pro Ear Pro Shemagh/scarf/hat/head cover (with wind it can get crazy dusty) Sun Screen Bug Spray Rain Gear Trash bags to cover your guns/gear in case of rain.

If I had a dollar for every time I was downrange taping or resetting only to realize the majority of the squad was sitting on it's collective ass - I could retire today. Taping and resetting is a team sport - and with over 400 shooters in this match, all are expected to play. I'll get off my soapbox now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easy I'll just use a felt tip marker and put another zero on them. I hope I can find some, they are scarce, in San Antonio. My Shotgun OAL is 53" it will reach out to them. On that what to bring, add Chap Stick, that wind and sun will cark you lips. Also eye drops for washing the boulders out of your eyes. Plastic grocery bags to put on you shoes to keep the mud out of the vehicle. That is if the weather man is correct this one time, most of the time they can only predict out a few hours with any accuracy. And for open gunners, a shower cap for the gun, that blowing dirt will shut it down, well not if it rains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
