Nonstandard Range commands

[RPMartin]

Hi all,

Just thought I'd put some of these down before senility erases them from my memory. yes I have heard these used, years ago....

LAMR= Feed that puppy up and get 'er ready to bark.

Are you ready= Get ready

Standby= hold tight

Start signal= Go Get 'em

Stop= What the H___ are you thinking of?!?!

If you are finished unload and show clear= if the coon is dead, dump yer ammo

If clear, hammer down, holster= is it empty? put it in the pouch and call it done!

Range is clear= we done playin' now.

There are more, but I want to hear some of the nonstandard commands you have heard.

RPM

[Thomas Moore]

LAMR = gas er up.

If you're Finished, emphasis on "IF" because you're dumbass forgot a target somewhere.

I love the IF. That has happen to me once but don't tell anyone.

[Fireant]

Funny, I thought a local shooting buddy giving me the giddy-up command for LAMR was funny.

[kimel]

LAMR = Stoke that Smoke Pole Son, Stoke 'em; Load and get jiggy with it; Load and prepare to pop a cap in their a$$; Uh...go ahead and load...I think...is that right?

Stop = Whoa dammit! <stream of profanity> Whoa!! <more profanity>

USC = Dump 'em and shuck 'em; safe that weapon;

Hammer down, holster = Stow that hogleg

And my personal "favorite" that I am real glad wasn't strictly complied with: "Holster, hammer down, unload and show clear"

[XRe]

My two favorite LAMRs:

"Poke it and stroke it!"

"Stoke 'em up, cowboy!"

[n2ipsc]

My all-time favorite - "Face downrange, fondle, and make lethal..."

[outerlimits]

i would replace "STOP" with "WTF"?

[Keith]

"If you are absolutely frustrated, unload and show clear."

"If you are finished shooting no-shoots, unload and show clear."

"Make and load ready"

[tgibson]

Let er' rip tater chip!

Now that you have taken 30 min of my life that I can never get back please end this now.

Since you dont have any ammo left hammer down and holster.

If your sure you dont want to shoot the backstop some more unload and show clear.

And my fav.

Now that you have scared the targets, other shooter and several small Countries with your shooting prowess please do everyone a favor by unloading and showing clear.

[Bill Rosenthal]

Quoting our Area Director for load and make ready... "Stoke it, stroke it, lick it, stick it."

And my personal favorite for load and make ready... "Go 'head." (Used at steel matches... 'cause I can!)

Bill

[IPSCDRL]

My two favorite LAMRs:

"Poke it and stroke it!"

"Stoke 'em up, cowboy!"

I"ve heard it as; Stoke it, Stroke it, and Poke it.

[Jim Norman]

Bill almost got it right

"Stoke It, Stroke It, FLICK It, Stick It"

Feel free to Fondle

The always popular addition to ULSC is "Slide Forward" We just love to Watch George Jones Shuffle slowy forward at this command. (As opposed to how he normally moves through the COF, i.e., more rapidly shuffling.)

I do like Stoke'em Up Cowboy as well.

and Stop, usually sounds more like "SSSSSSTTTTTTOOOOOOOOOOPPPPPPPPPPP! followed by a string of profanity and thanks for not putting any holes in me.

As for safety briefings

Don't shoot me Don't shoot my truck, Don't shoot anyone else on the squad and Don't shoot yourself.

At the 2001 3-gun nats, the ROs version of "unload and show clear" was...

..."do ya wanna stop, or do you want to continue bleeding all over my stage?"

[J-Ho]

unload and show clear. = "Show me a hot, smoking hole."

[Kingman]

Now that you have taken 30 min of my life that I can never get back please end this now.

Since you dont have any ammo left hammer down and holster.

If your sure you dont want to shoot the backstop some more unload and show clear.

And my fav.

Now that you have scared the targets, other shooter and several small Countries with your shooting prowess please do everyone a favor by unloading and showing clear.

These remind me of my early days.

[shooting for M]

Every time the local RO/Squad leader says "IF your finished," I have to look and think again damn did I miss something.

[Chris Keen]

It's never a good thing when you hear that long IF.

[TRUBL]

I love it when the RO asks......"Do you have any questions???"

Talk about non-standard range commands.

On the bad side......I've seen shooters from other country's load and make ready at that point, to which a really good RO quickly says "Load and make ready".....on the funny side, I tend to ask some REALLY personal questions.

[Patrick Sweeney]

LAMR: "Heat 'em up!"

Stop: "Acckk!"

USC: "Are you done? Do you want to call a lawyer?"

[Carl Provan]

LAMR=Poke it, Stroke it, and prepare to Smoke it.

If finished...= Done yet?

Range Clear= Ah--right(with a slow Texas accent)

[carinab]

For LAMR: Gas it up and get ready to drive it like you stole it

I've also heard my share of "Poke it and Stroke it Baby." Seems no one can resist saying that to a lady shooter...go figure!

At natl's when the RO's would ask if I had any questions, I'd regularly ask, "What's the capitol of Montana?" or "How long should I cook a 12lb turkey?"

[frenchwrench]

LAMR= Load that Toad.

[outerlimits]

LAMR or "stick it in and break it off"...
