Brian Enos's Forums... Maku mozo!

First time going to nationals. Need advice from what you’ve learned the hard way!


Recommended Posts

When we did a 5 day TPC course there they were all using a microfiber cloth sprayed with dry silicone and a end tied off with a ziptie (to make a handle) to clean mags.  The brushes spread the dust around, and boy is there a lot of dust there.  Hurri'CUN got that name for a reason, I've experienced the 1pm windstorm.

 

Make sure you have front sight fiber kit (knife, lighter etc) handy.  Using the sleeve it somehow pulled out the front fiber.

I have been doing the same but with a shop rag. Nothing fancy. Cleans nice. I then swab with silicone if desired...

Is it worth staying for the awards/prize table? I have a 6:30AM flight home in Vegas the next morning, and have reserved a room on Fremont St. Tues. night to sight see, but if the prize table is worth it, I could stay.

If the table is anything like last years it may well be worth staying up for. I finished well down the results in open (139) and still got a $75 bullet cert and nice a prone pad.

What would be the standard attire for the banquet?

I don't wanna stick out any more than normal.

 

Casual is fine, jeans and polo shirt used to be the norm. If you wear a tux you will stand out, if you wear a speedo you’ll be thrown out. 😎
