MoNsTeR Posted November 9, 2003 Share Posted November 9, 2003 Start position was hands on the wall. At the beep, you open the door (pull) and move through, to the first shooting position about 5 yards forward and 10 yards to the left. What *I* elected to do, however, was to open the door, break into a sprint, slip on the gravel and fall, ripping a bunch of holes in my left palm and left hip. My post-match relaxation once I got home consisted of pouring hydrogen peroxide on my wounds and swearing like mad.

MoNsTeR Posted November 10, 2003 Author Share Posted November 10, 2003 Yeah it's fine, it was still holstered when I fell and it didn't fall out. But it's only a $400 Glock 19 anyway, some battle scars would give it character Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diehli Posted November 10, 2003 Share Posted November 10, 2003 some battle scars would give it character Sounds like you got some of both yourself. Be safe... aggressive tread patterns are your FRIEND! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin c Posted November 11, 2003 Share Posted November 11, 2003 Be safe... aggressive tread patterns are your FRIEND! I used to wear soccer cleats. I went to the Nationals a few years ago when they were held in Virginia. I dug in hard with the cleats in that fine red Virginia clay and promptly ruptured my Achilles tendon (finished the stage, though!) Now I wear something a bit less agressive...

diehli Posted November 11, 2003 Share Posted November 11, 2003 Niiiiiiiiiiiiice. I'm lucky, all I do is pop ACLs and pop my hips in and out ever once in a while (not a mean feat, lemme tell ya). I wear football cleats built for linemen (seeing as I was one) that have a lot of little cleats rather than a few big ones. They give you better grip on wood planks, metal surfaces and concrete than regular cleats. I still consider it an aggressive tread pattern, though not as aggressive as some. Better than cross-trainers, anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
