glock34shooter Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Larry If I decide I am going to just shoot two weapons during a stage do I have to bring the third weapon just because or can I leave it in the cart? The reason I ask is some of the stage descriptions say to start with all three. Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 So it look like to cover all variations of shooting the stages. 161 Rifle 205 Pistol 103 Shot 16 Slugs And my head now hurts from trying to figure that out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Let me verify with Linda however, I am sure it will be the same as last year. You can register on the range Wednesday, then Wednesday night prior to the mandatory shooter's meeting or special circumstances Thursday morning prior to shoting (last one will be extremely limited and like you wife just gave birth to your first child, not sure even if that would qualify) Linda, will send information out to shooters but check your confirmation of registration.

Matt Yep if the stage description says to have one slung and if you choose only to shoot 2, then leave it slung but you must start with it slung! All stages give you options but trust me Murphy found it's way onto many stages last year. I did leave some options of slung or staged. If that is the case, you have the option to use it or not. I staged a coupld of guns last year just as a precaution in the event of a jamb or breakage. Luckily I did not need them however you never know.

YES Okay, at the risk of being dense, I just want to be clear on this one. You must use all 3 guns (I take that to mean engage at least one target with each of pistol, rifle, and shotgun) on every single stage? (I couldn't decide whether Larry was saying, "YES use all 3 guns" or "YES some stages would allow fewer than 3 guns"...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I couldn't decide whether Larry was saying, "YES use all 3 guns" or "YES some stages would allow fewer than 3 guns"...) You do not have to shoot all three guns......we like options. However if a gun is required to be slung or holstered (kinda know which one that is), you must have them on you at the start. After that if you want to safely ground them in an approved grounding container, knock your socks off. See not difficult at all. Of course not all the stages require a rifle or shotgun to be slung. Puts another decision into the stage break down, thus the 10 minute walk through verses the tradition pistol, 5 minutes. Hope this helps, Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope I am squadded with somebody who decides to shoot all 230-odd possible pistol shots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuke8401 Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 (edited) Larry, Quick rule question; Are coupled rifle mags OK to use to support/steady the rifle? From Last years rules: 5.3.4.3 Supporting devices (bipods, etc.) are prohibited. 5.3.4.6 Magazine capable of holding no more than 30 rounds inserted at any time. Coupled magazines are permitted.

Nuke8401 Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Dan, I think the rules on the FNH site are last years but most likely will be the same this year? The coupled mags are OK rule dosen't seem to work with the no rifle supporting devices allowed rule? Am I missing something? David P.S. My rifle ran like a champ this past weekend!

Dan Sierpina Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 David, If there is no date, the rules should be the same. My USPSA rule book says 2008, the same rules are in effect. Coupled mags help, but, they are no bipod! Good to hear your rifle is working, but, was it in a match? The darn things seem to know the difference between a match and practice.

dmshozer1 Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Larry, I shoot tactical optics. I have a forward folding grip that I use on tables and prone position. It is not touching the table or the ground when I shoot. My hand is under it. I fold it to the up position when not in use. Can I use it in your match?
