[jason bourne]

Sounds like you guys had a blast! The friday shoots sound extra fun!

[Rocketvapor]

SHhhh,
Secret sheet.
The Pistol comp course.
BEFORE IT RAINED


Jason;
I had the longest time ever recorded in the Combat Marksman

[jason bourne]

Were you using your .45?

[Rocketvapor]

No, the Friday rifle run and climb and jump course. 
I didn't compete in the pistol mud wrestling comp


Hey Roger,
I found an 88 and a 90 from the past.


Some more pics
Brothers, compete at everything
and slow cookers for a trial run with the Red Beans and Rice.
(and a little Tabasco )

RV, if the saying "slow is smooth, and smooth is fast" is true.. then you were by far the fastest! Its all about perspective lol

[Rocketvapor]

Where's the pics!?

When you gonna show up at a shoot?

LOL, then I had the fastest time getting up and down that truck bed!  As I recall, everyone else either jumped up on it or stepped on the bumper to hoist themselves up. I'm the only butterball that sat down on the tailgate and rolled over to get inside the bed.  I'm glad nobody was recording it because I'd never live it down.

Same here Cesar. 
I no be jumping up in no truck with or without a rifle
I think I ran the shot timer battery down and it quit counting.

Yeah, running on uneven ground with a loaded rifle with live ammo makes me very uncomfortable.  I guess I wouldn't have made it too far in the military. 

Now I have six months to figure out exactly what happened with three out of the four firearms I tried competing with and why I had failures to fire/failures to find the mark.  On the plus side, I think my idea of bringing all my mags pre-loaded really saved me a lot of time, and would have allowed me to take care of a couple of things if it wasn't for the rain that delayed everything.

[Rocketvapor]

Mentally, you were rushed.
I have to get in the ZONE, take my time.
Maybe I'll try headphones and some classical music next time
I watched you on the SKS line.  One little thing go wrong and it's frazzle time.

As far as being safe, Ranger watched us civilians pretty closely.
With my single shot it would probably have been better to charge after moving to the next station.
Can't put an AR on safe unless it needs to be on safe.

Made it home (white knuckles all the way in that wind ).  Always fun and really enjoyed the event again.  Looking forward to the spring event and will make a few purchases before then......  Also I guess I missed somehow who made those red beans and rice, but really did enjoy that tasty Louisiana treat!!!!  Thanks

See you all in the spring!!!!

[Rocketvapor]

You do know Ranger won't let you compete with an SKS in that new stock, right?
I think pumpkin blasters ought to be allowed to complete with their prize

I knew my score was not the highest. But it is the highest without ANY modifications to the SKS.

And this brother ain't loaning crap out.

The wind was blowing on the way home? You need a bigger truck. I win.


I still say that the guy who blows up his pumpkin and Cannot even see it because of some other guys lucky shot with a borrowed sighted in rifle should be the winner.

[Rocketvapor]

And this brother ain't loaning crap out.

I thought everyone knew not to borrow anything from you. 
Is hearing about it for years to come really worth one win?

(Yup)

[Rocketvapor]

Randy now has to buy Three SKS's.
One for comp, one for his stock, and one to loan
I tried to crop and blow up your SKS target but it's still too blurry to make out.
I'll see what I can do with another app.  It's a pretty group with those center shots.
