Hey y'all, what are the different divisions? Is there a place I can read about them? Just moved to AZ last year, been looking into getting into matches.
And what division for an old washed up, 30-pounds-overweight Marine?

Match is filling up nicely. Stages are designed and going to be different then last year (no Kbell drag this time).
A RIFLE SLING is required on two of the stages this year. Things to expect: FUN! Don't wait to sign up. |

I just signed up for Trooper class again. It was a blast last year, you guys did a great job putting it on. Sorry if I missed it, but I can't recall how much ammo I brought last year, do you guys have an idea of target count and I can go from there? I don't want you guys to have to give anything away, I just want to know how many rounds to pack. Obviously, the less I miss, the less I need.
I ended up with left over ammo last year, even after giving a full mag to someone and not getting the mag back. It's okay though, I have a few extras.

Wait, maybe I misread the rules. For trooper is armor required? Or just the ability to carry everything required for the match, like a chest rig or LBV? Also, is it possible to change my class after registering? Quote HistoryQuoted:

No armor required, you just have to carry all of your stuff through the obstacles and between each stage. I just have a "battle belt" setup that I load up with a ridiculous amount of mag pouches and a canteen. I look stupid, but it's comfortable and it works. Plus it's all stuff I already have. Adaptability is cool. Quote HistoryQuoted:

Well shit, that's not bad at all. I thought it required plates. So follow up, @notgrownupyetSBR556 is it possible to change your class after registering? If so, I'd like to shoot in Trooper. Email me at arizona2gun@gmail and I will get you fixed up for the match. AZ2G has Armoured Division which does require plates. For IDARM we have Trooper Division which does not require armor. Of course some hard core individuals wear armor in Trooper. |

Announcing the addition of the M1 GARAND division for the IDARM-2017.
With all the people posting and asking about it, we had to add it. You can change your division at sign in. DIVISION RULES: Any M1 Garand in 3006 or 308. No optics, bipods, or other support devices allowed. Go hardcore in TROOPER with an M1 Garand and no one can question your commitment to being awesome. |

This includes: green tip, black tip, red tip ammo’s. Cowtown Range bans the use of the newer “silver bullet” TULA ammo. Bimetal jacketed ammo is allowed (wolf, silver/brown bear, Tula w/ noted exception). |

At sign in.
If you have 200rds of 3006 in clips you are good to go. The ammo thing was mostly so people who wanna use their M1 don't show up with black tip ammo and wonder why we aren't letting em shoot the match. It happens often enough at AZ2G. Someone brings M855 and gets angry when we ask em to get different ammo and/or don't allow em to shoot the match. The tula "silver bullet" ban is a range ban specific to that ammo. Someone will still show up with it, see above for what happens. |
