Keith Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 (edited) Are the results up somewhere? Never mind. I found them. And from the way Mike was talking about how bad he did when I saw him Friday after the match, I thought maybe I had beat him for a change.

Waltermitty Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 I'll have to read the single stack rules. Would an 8 shot revolver make the SS guys whine? If they have an RO match at the Open Nationals I'll probably break down and shoot my wife's gun for fun. The hardest part of switching from revolver to bottom feeders is telling your parents you're gay. If you only do it once in a while you can claim it's only for fun. If you do it all the time however, you gotta face the facts.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DougCarden Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 (edited) Mike shot a solid match. He didnt get an A on the standards when he had all his shots all As but a couple of Cs.....you could see where the second shot went through the paster.....an admittedly new RO made the call, but Mike took it well. He was also vindicated on a heavy popper that wouldnt fall for his 190PF Wolf ammo either.... Mike shot a good match period, and it was fun to watch! Not bad for being a poster child for Team Uncle Mikes and Wolf ammo..... DougC Edited May 1, 2006 by DougC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Mainus Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 I think we need to call an emergency meeting of the Brotherhood of Revolver Enthusiast's, it seems we have a trader amongst us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aerosigns Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Congratulations Mike. But does this mean they will put an asterik next to your name on the Revo Squads? Or is it your claim that the SS was ACTUALLY shooting with a disadvantage, due to the full moons not fitting properly in the magwell. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haras Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Congratulations Mike. How hard was it to count to 8 or did you reload after every 6? Don't let Sam near the bottom feeder. It might be contagious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carmoney Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 Thanks for the nice comments from all you fine folks here on the Revo forum. (And as for the rest of you rotten bastards.....) I really like the new Single Stack division concept, and I enjoy shooting the SSC with basic stuff: a pretty much stock (only slightly dremelized) ugly-cool green Springfield Loaded, Woof ammo (that stuff works great, and I can pick up the empties with one of those big roofing nail magnets!), and Uncle Mike's "leather." I had a few rough stages, but was pretty pleased with my overall performance, particularly since I'm still pretty new at this ipsick stuff. Those of you who travel to Iowa this October to shoot the Iowa Revolver-Only Championship can also bring your 1911s and shoot the Iowa Single Stack match as well!! Old school, baby!! Retro-cool!!

Tom Mainus Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 (edited) As President of the forementioned "Rotten Bastards Club", Congrats to Mike and Keith. Looking over the results, you guys should be proud of your finish. Some of the names around you guys in the standings were some pretty tough competition.

pskys2 Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 The reason Mike's so good in Revo, is he's learned the trick. When you run out of fingers on the support hand it's time to reload. And we all know Mike never takes his strong hand off the Revo. Shooting the bottom-feeder with only a finger and a thumb can be done, but it does slow you down. Seriously, good job Keith and Mike looked like quite a few "M's" below you guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to congratulate you on your performance at the SSC, but figured I would spare you the hassle from these guys.
