Exactly!

Thanks for that SAAMI video. Well worth the time to watch it and it confirmed several things I had always believed about ammunition in "bulk". AD

Now that's a nice bit of prose there for sure. And it's a keeper! AD

Why would you be dropping half full magazines? AD

It's a game and it's a bit of practice. Do whatever you think is best for you. Me? I run with what I wear and what I carry. Easy choice. Other people play the game on a level of seriousness way above me. Not a big deal. If your "normal" draw stroke involves using your weak hand to clear...

100% Correct. Once the new shooter gets that very first stage out of the way, you're on you way! AD PS. Note to brand new to any type of shooting sports people. Leave your ego at home. Keep eyes and ears open. There is a wealth of knowledge out there!

What the others have said is pretty much spot on. As a new shooter, you'll be given plenty of space to shoot what you've brought with you. A lot of .380 autos show up the first day and it really isn't a big deal to allow them in and score right along with the rest. Local matches rarely...

first stage he goes to slide lock. Ejects his mag (1911), fumbles around forever trying to get a new one in the gun. brings the gun up to the target with the slide lock still back. Tries to pull the trigger. Nothing goes bang. tries again. nothing. I watch his thumb press down on the thumb...

I think you'll find that GSSF shoots, when they show up near your area, are more like normal range type shooting. Static targets at different distances and a nice set of plates to hit too! IDPA will run about the same amount of bullets but you'll be moving, "hiding", and thinking a bit...

While traveling through Illinois the last two years on our way to Sturgis, we just took off the guns, put them in the saddlebags and pressed on. Unloaded gun in one bag, magazine and ammunition in the other bag. We generally avoid states like that but needed to "collect" it for our all...

All, I really enjoyed reading through this entire thread. Some very good stuff. Here's my contribution to the collection. I've got these for each caliber as I was bored and playing with a new camera a long time ago when I took this one. AD

Gotta agree. Sometimes I just want to sell something and move on. I've sold/traded cars and boats at an obvious loss, at least on paper, but if you don't need or want it, why try to extract the absolute max price out of it? I recently moved out some .22 pistols to friends and they all...
