Saturday, October 18th, is the next ACTS Match at the Pima Pistol Club in Tucson (directions are here). Please arrive no later than 8:30am to get signed in, as we will be starting promptly at 9:00am. Help with setup is appreciated, so please arrive early. ACTS is the American Confederation of Tactical Shooters. It was developed to provide a sport in which civilian rifle owners, along with Military and Law Enforcement professionals can practice “real world” shooting skills in a sporting venue, different than any other shooting discipline or association. We encourage realistic stages, and emphasize using effective tactics to solve shooting problems. We promote the safe practical, proficient use of rifles; foster sportsmanship and camaraderie among rifle owners; and to support and defend the Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms. If you haven't shot one of these matches in the past, getting started is easy. All you need is a magazine-fed rifle with a sling and 2 extra magazines, a handgun, holster and 2 extra magazines, and a way to carry your extra magazines. To find more information about this fun and exciting shooting style, please visit http://www.actshooters.com/. |

Well Its kinda hard to predict an "end time" for a match when you dont even know how many people are going to be there........ And as its been stated over and over again the last match was NOT the norm for ACTs. There was many things that all happened at once that lead to the match running unusually long. Typically the matches run till 12 or 1pm. The MD seems to feel he will get this one done by no later than 12 but again, time will tell. Bottom line is it will be done when its done. |
