    7 stages for that price should bring in 100 guns. Kids for free with paying adult makes this an even bigger value. RCC does steel challenge right.
    Great shooting practice is nothing else.

    What's the issue(s)? I almost got one, but I got the Diamondback AR-9 instead. One misfeed at the ACC USPSA match, not that it mattered with my score.


    It worked great when I first got it (years ago). After about 500 rounds, it started having issues failing to go all the way into battery. I tried a few fixes over the years, but it finally just sat in its case for at least the last 2-3 years untouched. I let AllenM take a look at it and he replaced the extractor. I'm hoping that did the trick, but I haven't had the chance to test fire yet. We shall see!

    5 targets per stage, 5 strings per stage, 7 stages = 175
    I've shot Friday Night Steel (3 strings per) and Atlanta's SCSA (5 strings per) so I didn't know what to expect. Is 5 strings per stage fairly common?
    I took 200 rounds to Atlanta and I was a little worried near the last stage but ended up having 35 rounds left over :)
