If you could only play one game?

If you could only play one shooting game, in one class or division, what would it be and what gun would you use?

IPSC, limited, SVI 40

Bowling Pins in the Pin Gun division, with my custom Para .45.
I'd want the old Second Chance Combat Shoot back to play at however.
10 years of gun fun, trivia playing for ammo and other gun stuff, plus Richard's bad jokes. I miss it a lot.

I shoot both IDPA (SSP, ESP, SSR) and USPSA (Prod, Lim, and Lim10) and I got to say that I enjoy shooting a Glock22 with a few modifications and 18 rd mags in Limited the most.

I'm not worth a nickle in any of them, but I do have a lot of fun.

I think I would vacillate between NRA Bullseye and USPSA 3-gun limited until my head exploded.

Right now, 3-gun by a notch. Ask me again when the bullseye season is in full swing.

Only one? No fair.
I would probably play IPSC with my HiPower. Of course I haven't tried 3 gun, and that with the high power, ar and franchi I think would be fun.

Only one game? Well, since I've only participated in IDPA, I'll have to say that...although, I have been tempted to broaden my horizons

One Game

National Match - because if you can shoot NMC you can shoot any discipline. It reenforces the basics which any game requires. With a Gold Cup National Match Colt .45 or better. Quantrill

Oh so easy....

USPSA 3 GUN with a Kimber, Preban Colt Sporter II and Remington 870 with a mile long mag extension.



But..... I can't just let it go with one..........

I love just plain old USPSA/IPSC Limited 10 with my Kimber

I love IDPA with my Glock 17

I Love NRA High Power with My Preban Colt (Yes, the same one I use for 3 gun)

I love John C Garand Matches with my Babies.. 2 Garands...

I love skeet..

I love trap...

..

Sorry... I got carried away..

only one game........

Military Rifle steel plate races. 14 plates and a stopper, 60-100 yds. SAR-1 with Red Star Adjustable trigger, and the longer KVar stock set is my favorite. 223 too light, 308 too much recoil to get back on target fast, tho it really floors the plates.

That sounds like fun...
Where do you do that at?
