JGus Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 PASA is a great range and I love shooting SS Nats. The range and the volunteers always put on one of the top run matches of the year. But does it seem that the stages this year don't appear to be as challenging as past SS NATS? I realize stages on the ground can be much different than stages on paper, but the highest round count stage is 24 rounds, and only four total stages of 20 or more rounds. Just thought that was interesting compared to past SS Nats with stages of 30 or more and with what appeared to be a lot of movement. I guess we will see next month. It's going to be a great match and a great time! http://1911ssc.com/2016-stages/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motosapiens Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 how long ago did you see 30 round stages at SS nats? I shot it last year and don't remember anything over 24. I think that's so you can shoot it with your idpa rig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JGus Posted April 6, 2016 Author Share Posted April 6, 2016 My memory could be wrong. I thought we had a 30 or 32 stage round last year? I also shot Production Nats at PASA last year so maybe I'm getting the stages between the two confused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritinUSA Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 24 was the highest round count last year, see below: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JGus Posted April 6, 2016 Author Share Posted April 6, 2016 Thanks for the clarification. I definitely must have gotten the stages confused with PRD NATS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1v3t0x0 Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 There were 2 stages in 2014 that were 27 rounds, other than that 24 has been the limit. Since this match is "The Single Stack Classic" it has always (normally) followed the tradition of stages being no more than 24 rounds. When the match and division were pitched, you needed a 1911, carry type holster and 3 magazines (hence the 24 round rule). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1v3t0x0 Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Stage 12 is not a legal stage.Why is it not legal? Can't have all steel. you can absolutely have all steel 4.3.1.4 states that metal plates must not be used exclusively and that one paper target or popper must be used.

mach1soldier Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 They do it every year.... What rule doesn't allow it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teros135 Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Yep, popper. Lots of poppers. Looks like it's legal (4.3.1.4). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BARRYJ Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 I misread the rule. It appears that you can have all steel, just not all metal plates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inkman Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 If you love short, small stages with minimal reloading, this is the match for you. Also the reason that after attending once, a few years ago, i won't ever go back. Local level 1 matches have more challenging stages than the SS Nats.

jman93 Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 The stages in the past have been more challenging than these look on paper. 9 of the 14 it looks like you barely move with very few options. Looks more like an IDPA match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbarker13 Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 Shot it the past couple of years. After looking over these stages, I'm glad I decided to skip this year. Far better stages this weekend at Battle in the Bluegrass. Pretty disappointing to see stages like this for a national match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Shooter Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 I've always enjoyed the stages the years I've went. They were deceptively difficult; being a national level competition I usually pushed too hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
