ap3 Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 (edited) Well since the organization that we all pay dues to didn't get a match hotel worked out until the last minute, didn't do self service squading, never published a round count and doesn't have a good track record with 3gun matches then I could have made a mistake by counting the rounds on the match sheet Since no one from USPSA has commented on my week long post I haven't gone back to check my numbers Edited March 26, 2012 by ap3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil just got started and I hope he realizes that the communication flow needs fixing. Rather than point out the obvious here. Why not contact Phil and share with him these concerns? It is too late for this year but there is at least a year until the next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RAZZ Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 For those of you who are flying into Vegas, what's your range-cart plans? I won't be able to bring my big 3-gun cart due to luggage restrictions, and I was wondering how ya'all plan on schlepping all your stuff from stage to stage. Just work out of the back of your car and drive from stage to stage? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blockhead Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Hello Razz, I'm not flying 'cause I live here and shoot DSRPC regularly. My cart doesn't get much use here, even with the congested parking at Nat's. The gravel makes it tough to use carts unless you have really big tires. I usually drive to someplace close to the stages, manage my gear and ammo at the truck and then walk up to the stage with my bagged guns. One word of warning though, the RO's will enforce the rules for handling firearms at your car. If you need to fiddle with one of your guns, make sure you keep it bagged and take it to a safety area. If you have a cart, it's ok to un-bag at the car and go directly into the cart with your long guns (open bolt and flagged chamber). Seems like we always get a few unfortunate DQ's for handling firearms in the parking area. Regards, CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you aren't near a safe area, you will hump yer long guns from car to safe area just to unbag and put in yer cart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MustangGreg66 Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 As far as the round count goes, looking at the posted stages I get the same as "ap3" Rifle 170 Pistol 167 Shotgun 124 Slugs 21 I just downloaded the stages today to double check. One discrepancy I see is stage 7 lists 6 Larue targets to be engaged from 3 shooting positions. It shows 6 on the diagram and 6 listed in the # of targets, but mentions 5 in the stage procedure and only accounts for 5 in the number of rounds under scoring... still that would only account for 3 more rifle rounds. It looks like the numbers on the 2012 MG Nationals mail out to entries that "silver star" posted doesn't include stage 11 which has the exact diffrence of 20 handgun and 26 rifle rounds.... so unless they threw the stage out, I'd plan on the higher number. I initially looked at this thread beauase I was wondering if they were going to bother to Chrono since it's Time Plus scoring, and our prez answered that one for us. Sounds like a great time saver. After reading the info he posted on shotgun capacity and Tactical starting with 8 in the tube and possibly an empty chamber, empty carrier on an unloaded shotgun start, I went back to look at the stages. The only unloaded start I see is on Stage 3, but it's an unloaded rifle start. For that I got to wondering and it doesn't say in the stage description or not, is it all ammo on belt, or can you stage your start mag on the table with the gun?

There's enough gray here that you might win an arbitration but it's better to avoid to whole process. Keep in mind that in an arb. the only thing you can reliably quote is the rulebook. As for me, I'm gonna be real careful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chendersby Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 I don't see where you are getting no unbagging longguns in the car. The rule is it must be bagged OR have a chamber flag. If it is flagged it can be unbagged (oh I made a rhyme). I tried to get it in the new rules to be able to pull your holster from the belt or the belt altogether with a pistol in it but was out voted.

outerlimits Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 I don't enjoy getting swept in the parking lot, even with a chamber flag. Plus, last year on one stage the ro's prohibited using an expended SG shell as a chamber flag, others didn't care. All over the map on this.
