AlamoShooter Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Well I am going to the doctor this week to see about getting the metal out of my ankle this winter. I may be on crutches or in a scooter for this match. So will this match be natural terrain or bay/berm style stages? I'm just trying to determine if I need a 4x4 scooter or if the old RWD will do the trick. The majority with be natural terrain. Thanks, Jim Now thats going to be real embarrassing when Jessy out runs us on crutches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lthb Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 We have made a new deal with Comfort Suites. It will now be $60 per night instead of $70. Ask for Jamie and tell her you want the Spartan Tactical rate. Every room is a suite and they have free HOT breakfast every morning.

lthb Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 We now have a third new hotel in Bridgeport that we are recommending with a discounted Spartan Tactical rate of $60 a night. Bridgeport Suites Bridgeport, TX (940) 683-1795 Talk with Mindy and Cheri for the Spartan Tactical rate. It is across the street from the other two hotels. Thanks, Jim Updated phone number. Apparently they just bought out Best Western and they had a number change. (940) 683-1790 The rates are still $60. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arsoncop9 Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 Any idea if the stages are going to be posted? What is the round count so far for this match? Also what kinda of distance are we looking at with rifle and slugs? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ms. Kitty Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 Jim e-mailed me at 4:00 this morning (obviously a different time zone) and indicated he would try to get these out asap. I'll try to get a more definitive answer... HOWEVER, sponsorship is pouring in Make sure you thank your sponsors!

arsoncop9 Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 Ok i read the rules and i may be missing something. Will there be a limited class or irons? if so are there 10 competitors signed up in irons division to make? i kinda need to know so i can mount my scope on my rifle and zero it. also will the prize table be separate for divisions and order of finish or all one table? if i missed something i apologize in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

usp45ss Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 So I read over all the rules again. Will tactical irons have the option to use 1x optics? Looks like heavy metal can use a 1x optic. It looks like a no for 1x in tac irons the way the rules are written right now. Just trying to figure this out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesse Tischauser Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 Surely the rules will allow red dots in Tac Irons. If not there won't beamy people in that division like years past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaiserb Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 Surely the rules will allow red dots in Tac Irons. If not there won't beamy people in that division like years past. The division as the rules are posted is Tac Irons, which one would assume from the description is Iron sighted rifles only. I expected to see a Tac Limited division but there is not a division for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
usp45ss Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 Surely the rules will allow red dots in Tac Irons. If not there won't beamy people in that division like years past. That was my thought. I don't think they will make the 10 required for the divsion if they require true irons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arsoncop9 Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 Yeah that is what i am trying to figure out. I am sure Jim will give some clarification soon. This is how i read it. 6.2.1.3 Tactical Class rifles may be equipped with no more than one (1) optical sight and iron sights. 8.3 Tactical Class-Iron Sighted Rifle 8.3.1 Competitor will shoot a Tactical Handgun (Rule 6.1), Tactical Shotgun (Rule 6.3) and a Tactical Class Rifle with iron sights (Rule 6.2.1). The way i read it is Iron sights only but 6.2.1.3 is a little confusing. So with this rule in place will there be 10 competitors shooting irons only. I don't want to show up on game day and find out the Irons division did not make so i have to shoot my irons in the scoped division. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShootfastRunfaster Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 (edited) Yeah that is what i am trying to figure out. I am sure Jim will give some clarification soon.

I don't want to show up on game day and find out the Irons division did not make so i have to shoot my irons in the scoped division. I believe that you have it right when you say iron sights only. 6.2.1 describes the allowances on tactical class rifle (in automotive terms, think chassis, not windshield). 8.3.1 states the description for the class (we usually call it a division). Tactical Class Iron Sighted Rifle (read class, not equipment description) allows the use of a rifle that meets tactical class specs, but you can only shoot it with iron sights. No 1x optic. Either way I am signed up for Tactical Class Iron Sighted Rifle, so there are at least 3 of us.

Mickster Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 Would like to get some info from anyone who has been to this range. I know this is a very large facility but don't know how the stages for the FB3G will be laid out. Would shooting gear carts/strollers be of any use? How far apart are the stages? Would it be better or even possible to drive a car to the stages? Will water/food be available near the stages? You get the idea. Any info would be helpful.

ShootfastRunfaster Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 (edited) Any updates on the divisions having enough competitors to make it? I am signed up for Tac Iron, but the sign up sounds a little too light for the division to make. I have a Heavy Tac (and Heavy Metal) setup also and need to know which one I need to load for. We are down to 15 days and counting, so any info would help. Edited November 16, 2011 by ShootfastRunfaster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
