    Great Match!! Thanks to all who mage it happen.
    Thank to everyone that made this happen. Had a great time at my first uspsa shoot. It was different than I expected. I like the fact you get to shoot whatever order you want. Those darn hidden targets and the 3 I forgot. And keep my feet off the boards, don't step through the door. And gun in safe direction. Lots going on lol. Thank to my squad for being patient and helpful. I'll be back again

    I was there. I think I may have induced some strokes and/or heart attacks by my presence and the fact that I was early. Good to see some old friends I'd not seen in a couple of years or more and good to meet some new people (like grelber).

    I didn't fall down (came close three times). I didn't shoot anyone.

    I'm calling it a success.

    I did find myself a little light-headed when I saw the truck pull-up. Good to you see you out on the range.

    Thank you, and thank you again for welcoming me. I appreciate it! I probably should have warned everyone I might be there, but if I didn't make it would have been another false alarm!

    Hopefully the next time you see me I'll be hobbling less slowly!

    I was so disoriented by your presence that I DQ'd.:)

    It was still good to see you.


    That is a snazzy cane

    Rhino good to see you again!

    Ditto! And thanks for the delivery! I'll try to make the August WVRPC match too.

    It's my fault. If I hadn't been wearing such sexy attire, that might not have happened. I just showed too much leg.



    I wouldn't be surprised if there was an essee at the end of the cane with a plastic cap over the end.

    I'm going "field expedient" on that. I just gorilla tape the ESEE to the end when I think I might need it. Well, and then I tape a TOPS to the other end, just in case I need it. Redundancy is my middle name.

    Right. Totally my fault not checking the new style bullet in my gun. It isn't the first time but I have issues getting to a range to test ammo and load lengths. I should have went to bay one before the match.

    Where's the fun in that? Testing your gear is what matches are for!

    What? Did you DQ for real?

    I did...
    I'm not sure if I didn't get off the trigger or got back on it too quick after/during a reload. It doesn't really matter a bullet went someplace that I didn't intend for it to go. It scared the crap out of me, I don't want it to happen again, I'm going to work to see that it doesn't.

    You can check by plunking and turning the ammo you load for matches at home. No need to go to the range. I would check ammo 100% for matches.
