This match will run under international 3 gun rules just like S.M.M.3gun. there will be Open, limited, and He man classes. we will have a web site soon and will post the rules and entry form. We need to know how much interest there is for this match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tombstone Tactical Posted October 16, 2002 Share Posted October 16, 2002 Kurt: Raton is the best site for 3-gunning, the "KID" and I would be vary interested! You and your bro, are rifle shooters and will give us some Real rifle stages. Not pistol stages shot with rifle we see too much of. Keep us posted, Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colt1991 Posted October 16, 2002 Share Posted October 16, 2002 Tombstone: Yes Kurt and his brother are some rifle shooters and I can predict there might be some loooong rifle shots a this match, if you shot the last match at Raton that they put on you will know what I mean. But they are just as good with pistol and shotgun stages as well so you have to be skilled in all to think the way they think in setting up stages. GL: As soon as a web site is set up Kurt will more then likely let people know by this web site. But I'm putting words into his mouth by saying this.

kurtm Posted October 17, 2002 Author Share Posted October 17, 2002 Hey Colt 1991: No words in My mouth, as soon as the web site is up it will be posted here. We almost have the app done and as soon as it is I will start E-Mailing it out to those who want it. So far people from Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Wyoming, Texas, and New Mexico want one. It should be a GREAT match. KURT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kurtm Posted October 17, 2002 Author Share Posted October 17, 2002 Erik Warren: DON"T CONFUSE USE WITH THE GUNSMOKE 3 gun match that was advertized in S.O.F. ( the one with stytle points and theme music!!) We are the guys that did the last true S.O.F. 3 gun match. You can check us out with Kelly Neal and find out that this was one of the BEST matches that most people had shot. Todd Salmon said it was the best mat he had ever been to. Jimmy Clark, and his brother in law Jerry ( can't spell his last name) Keep asking us When we will be putting on the next one. If we need medication for that, I guess you won't need further info on the match. Thanks for at least looking at the post. KURT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Freeman Posted October 17, 2002 Share Posted October 17, 2002 I know of an IPSC club that will be providing a lot of props and workers... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gl Posted October 18, 2002 Share Posted October 18, 2002 Kurt, Surely Erik was referring to the comment I made (KILL!! KILL!! KILL!!) in his refence to medicine taking. Rest assured Erik, I am at my proper dosage level and Kurt and his brother will be putting on an excellent match. I am in the same camp as Todd in my opinion that the last match was nothing short of awesome. It was one of the best matches I have been to in my entire life, which is longer than I care to admit. Although theme music and style points have their place, these guys are not going to indulge in such antics. Expect a premium match...................and hopefully an invitation to it.

kurtm Posted October 18, 2002 Author Share Posted October 18, 2002 GL: As soon as we get a few more details sqaured away, I WILL be in touch with you and your brother for help with this deal. After talking to you in Vegas We have planed to get you both on board for the match. I will try to get you this week end. KURT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VNGunfighter Posted October 18, 2002 Share Posted October 18, 2002 Patience...............The match is going to be unlike any match anyone has ever shot. Expect the following: -high round count -all comstock stages -no standards -lots of movement -no "theme song required" -no "style points awarded" -no "random drawing for prizes" We have support from multiple clubs. We have a great match staff. And thanks for the support TF-(PP3G) Website will be up and running soon. Hope to see you there RM3G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kellyn Posted October 20, 2002 Share Posted October 20, 2002 These guys put on a premo match. Their SOF match at Raton was one of the best events I've ever been to. I love the idea of a He Man class! Kurt, I can't believe you can't spell "Miculek." Didn't Superman have a super enemy with a similar name? Hmmm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ErikW Posted October 21, 2002 Share Posted October 21, 2002 Indeed I was referring to the KILL! post. And don't call me Shirley. Kurt, your medication level is right on. I've been wanting to do a big bore/he man division for our local 3 gun matches. I wish your match was closer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Brown Posted October 24, 2002 Share Posted October 24, 2002 What are International 3 Gun rules? Michael Brown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xsrdx Posted October 25, 2002 Share Posted October 25, 2002 MB, I believe they intend to run a limited-iron, limited- scoped rifle, open and he-man class. Except for "he-man", identical to SMM3G classes. Differs from USPSA/IPSC in allowing limited shooters to run a single optic, "tactical" scoped rifle. VNG or Kurt plz correct me if I've misrepresented. Also, the website should be up soon to clarify the rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtm Posted October 30, 2002 Author Share Posted October 30, 2002 Craig: You certainly haven't misrepresented!! Work is progressing very well and quite a few people have expressed interest in attending. The web site is almost done and VN GUNSLINGER is doing a great job on it. I think that the ap, and rules will be up on it with in the coming month ( November). Hope you can make it out for the fun!!! Talk to ya latter!!

Blane West Posted November 11, 2002 Share Posted November 11, 2002 The confirmed dates of the Rocky Mountain 3-gun Match are Aug. 22-24 (fri-sat-sun) 2003. We will shoot 4-stages Friday, 4-stages Saturday and the team shoot and prize table Sunday. If all runs smoothly we should have all the shooters through the prize table by 12 to 1pm. We have a great staff running the match. Kurt Miller, Eric Miller, Jimmy Holdsworth and myself. The website address is http://www.trm3g.homestead.com The rules and any questions you have can be answered here. The one BIG rule change is we are allowing ANY scope in tactical rifle class as long as it's not over 4x, and yes variables are allowed as long as they are not put over 4x. We are also starting the HE-MAN class. (308 or larger, iron sighted rifle/12gauge shotgun/and .45 pistol). Any questions that you can't find on the website feel free to email me at : west556@attbi.com Blane West-match director Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottmilk9 Posted November 12, 2002 Share Posted November 12, 2002 wow, havent been here for a while, Milkovich brothers are in, well i gotta talk to the better shooting one, but sounds like a great match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingus Kahn Posted November 21, 2002 Share Posted November 21, 2002 Just checked out your web site. The only 3gun match I've been to is the Tucson match. I was shocked to see the $200 entry fee. Is that normal for other 3gun matches?? Add my son (even at $115) and I realy have to think about how to justify that. I might, but holy cow.

actionshooter Posted November 24, 2002 Share Posted November 24, 2002 DK, Thats pretty close to the going rate for a big match. These things are REALLY expensive to put on. It can be worth the money and for me its like a vacation. Well kinda like a vacation,I seem to work harder than a normal vacation. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blane West Posted November 24, 2002 Share Posted November 24, 2002 DK, I agree that the match fee is expensive. But once you break down that the NRA Whittington Center is getting $30 per shooter, figure in props, targets, paying the RO's, paying people to come down a week early to help set up, rooms for the staff, food, water, shirts, long distance phone calls, and the big thing is insurance. Probably $20-$40 per shooter. Then you add in the prize table and cash money out. We figure if we get a hundred people we'll be lucky to break even. The people that put these matches on do it because they love it, because there is little, if any, money in it.
