jrizzo Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 Sorry, this is my first big match and my first night match, so I have a couple questions. Newbe advice appreciated. It looks like some of the stages have house equipment, but I assume we still bring our own ammo for those? I guess it needs to be a specific caliber? Any idea what the round count is for something like this (ballpark)? Any other costs besides the entry fee, equipment, ammo, and travel that I should consider before committing?

yosmithy Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Hi All, I am registered for this match. This is my first night match and so I'm trying to get a decent setup. I bought a couple of the Veridian CL5's, one for the rifle and one for my shotgun. question- if I'm running a laser/light setup on my rifle, should I just run it without the scope? TIA, I'm really looking forward to the crazy event! Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TIA, I'm really looking forward to the crazy event! Neil Lasers are better than anything for up close point shooting, awkward positions and shooting on the move. They start to suffer when you need accuracy not because of the laser but simply because you can't hold them perfectly still like we like our sights to be. It's like the wobble you see in your scope when the magnification is up on the high end. Only lasers accentuate the wobble even more. So my point is the accuracy requires of the head shots only coupled with the odd zombie targets that don't have a distinct scoring area require accuracy. I am assuming I'll be using my scope more than my laser on my rifle as a result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just need to figure out where to mount the laser/light now on my JP. Thanks, Jesse! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doubleaay78 Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 (edited) Match Rules and current squad lists have been emailed. Check your in box gents.Under 'General' on page one the rules state that optics are allowed on all three weapons platforms, but for handguns, 6.3.1 (a) states "Electronic sights, optical sights, extended sights, compensators and suppressors are prohibited."Can you clarify which one is correct? Thanks! Edited October 9, 2013 by doubleaay78 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lone Star Shooter Posted October 9, 2013 Author Share Posted October 9, 2013 Yes. Overlooked that one detail. Optics are allowed on handguns as well. No comps or porting that would cause a gained advantage. Thanks for catching that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lone Star Shooter Posted October 12, 2013 Author Share Posted October 12, 2013 Yeah Jesse. With only one division we gotta keep it fair for the regular guy...with his regular gun. You will do great I'm sure. Hopefully we will have more interest in an open division next year. See you in a few weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully we will have more interest in an open division next year. See you in a few weeks. A comp doesn't do much to a 9mm minor gun. The big advantage is a dot and a laser. The easiest way us to let it all be open. If you got it run it. Talent still wins out. I had a 32 round shotgun and two pistols and couldn't beat Horner at the big crimson trace night match.
