gunther Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 Most charge 3% for CC's, imagine the fiasco of using paypal for something like this. When paypal people find out what it was for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveG Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 Most credit card companies charge 6% per transaction, 3% isn't that bad. You did have the option to mail it in for 0% processing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Doc Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 Anybody that got in and finds the fees superfluous, I will be happy to take your spot and give you a 10 dollar fee for your trouble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Religious Shooter Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 So 1911/2011's now have to have a functioning grip safety? 2.5.3 Unsafe abandonment of any firearm. Firearms may only be abandoned as stipulated in the stage briefing and in one of the following safeconditions:2.5.3.1 Loaded, all safeties fully engaged, muzzle pointed in the designated safe direction (i.e. pointing down into the receptacle).

StealthyBlagga Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 So 1911/2011's now have to have a functioning grip safety? 2.5.3 Unsafe abandonment of any firearm. Firearms may only be abandoned as stipulated in the stage briefing and in one of the following safe conditions: 2.5.3.1 Loaded, all safeties fully engaged, muzzle pointed in the designated safe direction (i.e. pointing down into the receptacle). That is not what 2.5.3.1 says. This clarification is primarily aimed at the few guns like the M&P that are available with a manual thumb safety in addition to other internal passive safeties. When abandoned, such guns must still have their thumb safety applied, even though the same gun that came out of the factory without a thumb safety would obviously not. We anticipate this change will affect only a small percentage of the guns in common usage in our sport. We understand that it is common for competitors to have disabled their 1911 grip safety, and nothing in this clarification prohibits such modifications.

RiggerJJ Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Ran into a pistol today that had me scratching my head on how to abandon it, and to top it off, a new shooter had it and asked me for advice because I was the old head on the squad. It may be simple, I just didn't know the answer... ? It was a Sig, with a decocker, double/single action, no external safety. Other than the obvious answer of totally empty, what is the correct way to abandon it? The question may apply here, so thats why I asked here, not trying to steal a thread... thanks! jj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Sierpina Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 I was under he impression that Sig pistols require the decocker activated, and the hammer lowered to what would be considered a safe "starting" condition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Sierpina Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Other than completely empty, there is no other option that makes sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colodrew Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 When does the first wait list come out? Trying to schedule matches for next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PRGUSPSA Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 Wait-List update - Most everyone involved with SMM3G was busy for the last week helping out with the USPSA Area 2 Desert Classic. Now that it is over, I have been busy catching up with processing payments and compiling lists. Everyone that has made it into the match has been notified. There were very few that did not complete the process by submitting payment. I plan to email a complete list of who is on the wait list to those shooters by tomorrow. - Russ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PacMan Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 (edited) Is there a published wait list or just by individual emails?

co-exprs Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Probabaly gonna be a while. Last year tons of people signed up quickly and then didn't pay. This year, nearly everyone paid up right away. Now we're waiting for the sponsor slots and those won't be released for a couple of months. Last year, I got one of the last vacated sponsor slots only a week before the match. It's a game of patience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
