I had such a great time shooting the carbine match this past Sunday I think I'd like to possibly come out and try shooting a pistol match or two with you all. What do I need to come up this Sunday (or next) and shoot? I haven't shot in so long I don't even remember what the divisions are and what equipment I need. :o
Would appreciate all the help I can get.
Thanks!

-A safe serviceable handgun with a holster that completely covers the trigger guard.
-At least three magazines if you have highcaps or 5-6 if shooting a single stack.
Magazine carriers are also good but its not unheard of for guys to load out of their pockets the first time.
I suggest that you take a look at the Handgun rules at www.uspsa.org to familiarize yourself with scoring and range safety procedures.
If you don't have the magazines or carriers, list your handgun and I'm sure someone can probably facilitate you!

Just let us know what ammo you have or will bring and I am sure many of us can or would be willing to hook you up with a loaner pistol and gear.
Got a 45 single stack, M&P 9mm and a 2011 45 high cap that are not going to be doing anything next match.
Shoot if you are really set on shooting a wiz bag open pistol, cant help there but I do have one of the old old single stack 45 open guns sonewhere.
I'll have a 1911 and mags that I'll be shooting, bring 45 ACP and you can use my stuff, including holster and and pouches (right handed holster, though). It's all paddle, so no big deal switching. Let me know.

I wish I knew how generous you guys were and I'd quit getting my guns dirty and shooting up all my ammo. I normally get hungry after a match. Any volunteers on buying lunch??? :D :D :D :D

grayson usually has a biscut or two in the truck, when he's out he goes to matt, "matt usually has some type of mre or energy bar" I'm saying just follow grayson he eats about every 15 minutes, if there is food around he'll find it...

I don't think I would get between Grayson and a biscuit, he is still growing. Matt on the other hand, ah, he is a prick, and probably wouldn't share.:D

I also think I took the pump gun. The only reason I did good is that Gary was having a bad hair day...................

Everyone, I really appreciate all the offers but I ended up not being able to make it! Hopefully I can make a few shoots with you all but you all shoot on the same day as the skeet guys. :(

Bad hair day:eek:
I came to the range with what I thought was a 100 round box of 12 ga. When I got there though I found 75 rounds missing. I think Blake may have had something to do with that, but he denies it.
Next time I'll be sure how much ammo I have.
Congratulations to Scooter anyway.

Then again Blake will need money for diapers and formula...
...on a completely unrelated topic, I recall seeing Scooter and Blake on the side discussing something
Probably the care and feeding of young, upwardly mobile, speed demons.:D

Kinda, my aching, dying ass-you beat me like a borrowed mule!!!!:p
