PeterPan Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 I have shot three Area 8 matches in a roll and would love to shoot 2012, but weekend before I have my Nationals (4 days format) and would be so hard to make both matches happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Keen Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Thanks for the info Harry. Too bad this is the same weekend as the indiana State match. I was really hoping to shoot A8 again this year. Yeah, that's too bad. I haven't missed an Area 8 match in about 7 years .... but Indiana is closer to me, and a hell of a match, so .... that's where I'll be. Sorry guys.

stein Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 What's the shooting schedule? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hf219 Posted February 6, 2012 Author Share Posted February 6, 2012 What's the shooting schedule? It will be the same as last year Full day shooting available on Friday and Saturday. Half day format for Saturday/Sunday. Squadding will be done online at www.uspsa.org . This will be done on a first come first serve basis with the self squadding program on the USPSA website. Last year we had ALOT of people trying to get into a weekend slot. Please dont count on a cancellation to get a weekend slot. Get your apps in early to get the squadding schedule you want. Thanks Harry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hf219 Posted February 12, 2012 Author Share Posted February 12, 2012 The squadding matrix is up on the USPSA website. We have added more half day shooting squads. This will in turn allow more weekend slots. Dont delay in sending in your registrations. This match fills up quickly. Thanks, H! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edwin garcia Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 What's the best airport to fly to? I see REagan and Dulles. Are there any other alternatives? Any experience with these airports when flying with guns? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basman Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 (edited) What's the best airport to fly to? I see REagan and Dulles. Are there any other alternatives? Any experience with these airports when flying with guns? I have flown into and out of Reagan, Dulles, and Baltimore Washington (BWI), with guns many times with no issues. BWI is the furthest, but usually is less expensive for some reason. Also consider Richmond international. Edited April 5, 2012 by basman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcarter Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 I'll be working Indiana as well. I love the A-8 but I am gonna miss this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any experience with these airports when flying with guns? Dulles was okay flying with guns. Just took a little longer with the TSA searching the bag. Richmond is also an option.

hf219 Posted April 24, 2012 Author Share Posted April 24, 2012 Weekend slots are almost gone. Some more may open up at a later date, although I cant gaurantee that. If you want a weekend slot get your app in ASAP! The premium slots will be half day shooting. They are still available as of today. H! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
