rpcruab Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Had the pleasure of shooting a great match with great people today at Lewistown Pistol Club's "Think of the Children" match! Got bumped to SSP expert and had a blast! I want to thank the staff for running a great match for a awesome cause. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rpcruab Posted April 29, 2013 Author Share Posted April 29, 2013 Make sure you get your card signed! Will IDPA still update my classification when they send the scores to HQ? I noticed they listed the match win on the members area of the IDPA site, but haven't updated my classification yet. That was a fun match, how did you like the candel light stage? I got a FTN on that stage, luckly everyone else im my divison had trouble in there too. The candle light stage was crazy! I lucked out with 0 down on the first stage, but ended up dropping 6 points on the second. Definitely the most nerve racking stages for me. What division/class did you shoot in?

RexKramer Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 I shot that match as well. The candlelight stages were interesting to say the least! I did fairly well except I completely dinked stage 10. I was so impressed with myself that I got the mover that I forgot about the last target behind the barrels. By the time I realized and shot I added at least a dozen seconds to my time. Ah well. As a side note, if one gets a match bump, how do you get your card signed? The match is spread over two days and it's possible you could be long gone before the results are posted.

I just noticed they updated my classification on the IDPA site, which is awesome considering I didn't get my card signed....despite being there for awards.

Definitely the most nerve racking stages for me. What division/class did you shoot in? I shot in SSR/Master. Reloading a revolver in the dark is fun I couldn't see either sight on that stage. All I could see my hands and the back of the gun, so I just pointed and shot. On the last set I tried to stay away from the NT and shot a pair of 3's. I should of just went for the head.

I couldn't imagine shooting that stage with a revolver! Would've been a good stage to have night sights on huh? Not that you could see the targets anyways.

I was thinking night sights would have been nice. Edited April 30, 2013 by Racinready300ex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
