mlmiller1 Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Shotgun & rifle placed on a cart per rules can be from vehicle. Pistol cased until you find a safe table and place it in a holster per rules. Jason Thank you very much! Your other post about gun handling had me confused. Doesn't take much, I know, hahaha. "The prefered method is to handle your firearms at a designated safe area on the range instead of your vehicle. As stated in the rules it is unsafe gun handling at your vehicle and may result in a match DQ. Until told otherwise bring your firearm cased to the safe area at the range under supervision of a RO to move to your buggy/cart." See y'all tomorrow!

Langenator Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Not wanting to cause any problems but last year if I had a rd. left in shotgun I simply shot it at where the last target was to slide lock, dumped shotgun and went on.Just never seen this in a major match before. I will follow rules as best as I can and hope match is great. Benny you had me all buffuddled, I was thing crap if I have 10 or 12 rounds in there then what. Well I figured it out I'm an "A" kind a shooter and you like option "B".1.9Grounding Firearms 1.9.1 During the course requirements of a multi-gun stage, a participant may be required to ground a firearm in order to transition to another. The location and position of the grounded firearm will be specified in the written stage description. A participant shall transition firearms by safely grounding a firearm using either of the following acceptable and safe methods: (a) Loaded, safety engaged. ( Unloaded. Note: For purposes of Texas Multigun, "unloaded" means: (i) Empty chamber and empty source (tube or magazine); or (ii) Empty chamber and magazine completely removed Yep, most boomsticks have some sort of fancy lever/button that is called a "safety". Just be glad they didn't choose the Eastern Front as a theme. You'd time out just trying to put the safety on a Mosin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesse Tischauser Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Anyone else doing anything special to honor our Vets during the match? Please post pics now or after the match. The Asiatic Pacific Campaign medal in my previous pic was my Grandfather's Colonel Joe F. "Big Daddy" Bourn Sr. HCT_556 asked me to post this for him. Great idea! I intend to win the match to honor my Father who served in Vietnam and the first gulf war. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SC-Texas Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 (edited) Signed in. Sheldon and his crew have done a hell of a job! They are busier than one armed paper hangers! The range is laid out and the stages are fun. Straight forward. Fast resets are going to be the norm Edited April 20, 2012 by SC-Texas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe the admission fee is going to benefit the Pacific Combat Living History Program, part of the National Museum of the Pacific War in Frederickburg, TX. Some of the proceeds may go to other organizations, I am not 100% sure where it is going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alaskapopo Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Great first day! Had a blast especially on the 50 round pistol course. Met lots of people and saw some of the pro's shoot. I am happy with my performance so far. I was incredibly nervous on the first stage but then the stage fright started to go away. Thanks again to the RO's for a great match so far! A lot of people have seen my Alaska shirt and asked me if I am Alaskapopo. Met lots of forum members at the match. Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great Match so far and you RO' have done a amazing jobs moving this Crowd along. Thanks to all. Loved to see the Jeep with the M2 mounted.
