LandonMc Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 I noticed when reading the rules that rifle must be of a factory configuration for tac optics class except for an optic of course. Does this mean no forward grips? I ask because I have a Mugpul Angled forward grip on my LWRC and I'm absolutly in love with it. It definetly makes me a faster more stable shooter. So if they arent allowed in the competition then I'm outta luck. Also a second question... Can shotguns have a side sadle mount for tactical providing it was an after market upgrade? I need to stop practicing with it if its not allowed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trying to keep somebody from making a .223 that runs 4800 fps and stomping everyone or something like that. Side sadles are used all the time in every division.

ruffnst Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 For the Match planners. Last years polo shirt was of "okay" quality. Is the same thing planned for this year? Or, is it planned to do a small embroidery instead of the screen printing. I expect screen printing on t-shirts, not polos. Please advise soon so I can mail my application & check. I am also interested in this. If it is a similar quality as last years polo I will keep my $28. I was planning on purchasing a Polo, but not if the image is screen printing. Patiently waiting for an answer. This year's Polo will be screen printed but on a good quality cool dry style shirt. I will post pictures on the website when we get it finalized. Thanks, Nick Cool dry style? How about something like what Will Ferrell wore in Blades of Glory? Then again, I am partial to a leisure suit...

RWF Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 (edited) just a note, for some of you who do not get into the match, based on last year, it would worth driving 4 hours just to do all the side matches, shooting a CMMG 7" full auto piston gun $10 for 20 rounds, fn 50 rounds PS 90 full auto, cave shooting, shooting 50-1000 yards with pro spotters etc. you get the idea. a day of go old family fun. and a chance for you to show the other half some fun they and you are missing.

Some had a nominal fee ($5-10), some were free as long as the ammo supply held out.

RWF Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 they have used that cave, for a few years now and yes you are truly under ground and that is the first time i have see or heard a remark like that! even all the shooting sports TV crews like that stage. oh well, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now would you like to have a little chelation therapy to go with that snoot full of lead which went along with the cage stage? There is a draft that runs through the cave moving air at about the same rate as an indoor range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess nobody turned on the "draft" before our squad shot the 2009 BR3G which was why you could not see the rifle targets at the end of the stage. If you spend much time at an indoor range with no more ventilation than this you need to check into chelation therapy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
