Thank you very much everyone that offered to lend me a firearm for PR. I am trying to find the issue with my AR and want to get it running before the match.
Might sound funny but I think the carrier is messed up somehow. Thats the only thing I have narrowed it down to. |
|
NoAim, thanks for the clarification, I was concerned because he did say “steel cased” which is what I understand Wolf to be. I didn’t think Wolf has any steel in bullet itself as I checked it with a magnet, but some people just have it out for Wolf and I wanted to make sure I wouldn’t be blacklisted for using it.
|
|
If you're shooting an AR or some other .223 with Wolf, no problems. It's the AK stuff that is usually the problem. |
|
|
I remember Randy Specificly stating.. "TOUCH THE MAGNET TO THE BULLET!.. DO NOT TOUCH IT TO THE CASE!. The CASING IS STEEL SO IT WILL STICK TO THE MAGNET!" |
|
|
I think he wants to buy everyone breakfast and pay their match fee. Or he'll be in Reno instead... |

|
You'll be fine.......I promise I won't make fun of ya............at least not untill stage 2... |
|
|
Its really not that bad, my first time out I came out wanting to watch and not shoot. They talked me out of it. Grab your rifle, come out, and shoot it, its not about winning, its about having fun.
|
|
Ok, need some help from ay'll. Everyone cross thier fingers for me, if my audit goes Ok today, I'll be able to make it.......or pray for a massive pile-up on I-5 so da big boss can't make it down here!
|

|
Anywhere from 1330-1500. The more people that help before, during and after the faster you get out of there. Well worth missing a couple hours of sleep! |
|
|
Hmm... tempting.
Think I can convince everyone that a Gerber LST is a "combat" knife? |
|
I heard a Leatherman was counted before; I don’t have a “combat knife” either, so I plan on using mine.
|
|
Dont get hung up on the knife. Just have a blade handy!
Trust me folks you will leave mad!!! Mad that you havent been out before this. |
|
If someone really needs a knife, I can bring my extra K-Bar out.
ETA: But let me know by Friday 10:00pm otherwise it won't get brought! |
|
Sweet!!!! Uhhhh calling NOAIM or others for directions. |
|
|
If anyone needs it, I've got an M4 with irons to loan out, or mags. Just let me know asap as I'm headin up that direction tmrw after work.

Can anybody at PR do this (slow download): homepage.mac.com/psychodave1/Shooters_Corner/iMovieTheater33.html |
|
Hell I could run that course of fire faster then him!!!!!! If you take out the running, gun changes, one round at a time reloads and the whole thumb thing with the hammer.....ssomthing I might have trouble with |
|
|
Thats plenty. Bring 250 round of ammo and your good to go. If you dont have a pistol you can use my Kimber or I can bring an extra Colt commander. CH |

Here are some more of his videos:

TF are we going to loose you to playing dress up and shootin six guns?
|
|
|
So Kooter and I are planning on driving down Sat. morning and hanging out Sat. night down that way. Is the Crowne Plaza hotel in Lake Oswego a far drive from the shoot???
|
|
30 minute or less. Google TriCounty Gun club or check out the FAQ tacked at the top of hte OR hometown forum. Hope to see ya there! CH |

Sweet, looks like about 8 miles is all As long as it doesn't snow we should be there then!
|
|
4 is enough. The rare stage needs 3 mags. Most require just one or two. The third is nice to keep handy in case of a failure. I usually bring six, but I'm lazy and don't like to reload my mags all the time. |
|
|
Me too. I bring 8 fully loaded, 2 for each stage. I dont load mags at the match. That cuts into my haggle time! |
||
|
i keep one empty mag in case there is a stage w/ a specific round count... easier to put 12 in a mag than empty one.
BTW.... snow match anyone? |
|
Naw, I just want to play cowboy/lawman/drifter/cavalryman/JohnWayne/ClintEastwood/ElmerKeith for extra fun. My first handgun was a single action, my first centerfire rifle a lever action, and I grew up watching old westerns so this should be fun. Now if WS ever gets his blackpowder pirate pistol maybe we can have a pirate vs cowboy shootout in the pistol pits. |
|
|
Are you two going to be shooting with us? |
|
|
Good idea on the empty.....maybe should stash a 20rdr somewhere for that. Snow up there still huh? I can't believe it, but snowed most of the morning down here and is trying to get with it now too. Should be an interesting drive tmrw evening |
|
|
LOL.. nah I have a pistol (Ruger P95) Guess I could always "forget" it at home, Ive never had a chance to play with a 1911... hippie.gif |
