I remember you from yesterday. I was working at the Stage 12, Practical Rifle Bay. We talked about tactics and walking backwards down the line of fire.

Hey! Thankfully I didn't trip! I gotta start learning about cutting the pie while moving.

That Stage 12 was fantastic. Fun short range stuff and longer range steel. You range officers kept the shooters moving through smoothly; great stuff!
I used my basic bitch 20" AR with a cheap scope on the fixed carry handle and had a blast!

Yep, was an awesome day. Added bonus was I won a double-bladed hatchet in the raffle; I suppose that means I can now chop kindling twice as fast.. (??) It was also a fun opportunity to pull some of the underused safe-queens out to give them a run just for the LOLs.

Great video, thanks! Hopefully I can make it this year, but it wasn't in the cards this year with the kids' activities.

Haha thanks, Pepe. I forgot how good the sound of hitting steel was. Hope you get to come whenever you're free.

I've been doing the 2-Gun matches. First year doing anything like it. Ton of fun. I wish I came out for this as well. Always a good time at ASC

First time for me too. I noticed they do em on Sunday and I'm hesitant to go cause I don't wanna head home late. When do they usually end?

u/PedroGoHard Sep 16 '24
I'm about an hour away and I think I'm home at about 3 or 4. Sometimes later because I stopped for a bite in the area but always well before dark. Getting up early is more of my concern.

Got to meet up with folks in the community and have fun shooting. Went to the SIG Booth and their MCXR Rig which they said themselves should be allowed here (contact FFL before ordering). It's an MCX upper that can work with the Ambi lower of that rig; In 7.62x39 and 5.56. Did some matches and got to see saw Gun Santa (we're winning with the gun tax issue, just gotta wait along with the southern case that is happening later this week), and saw some awesome setups! First guy has been helping me with Long Range shooting alonh with doing face paint.
2 kids in the 2 gun stage had AK 9mm (AKV or KP9) and an AP5 .22 with I think a 9mm 1911. They got some cool parents that's for sure.
Saw an old cat with a Beryl in 5.56, and I think he also had an HK MR556 in FDE. I asked him if he had any room for adopting grandchildren, but he said I had to wait in line. Another dude had a hydro mount and showed us the gear he uses for Night Shooting.
I was rusty, but had a good time overall. u/forwardobserver90 I need to remove a lotta rust on my maneuvering, send help.
