IPSC with BP guns

[Tango2]

Hi,


In Lithuania on Saturday was organized IPSC match with black powder revolvers - "Wild West 2011". We call this a Western Action Shooting. Competition was attended by 24 shooters of Lithuania, Latvia and Poland.


Next year we plan to organize 3 or 5 competitions.

That looks like wonderful fun! Very similar to the Single Action Shooting Society's "Cowboy Action" matches.

That was very cool! Lots of smoke and some good shootin'.

You put a nice spin on some of the classic style stages. And it sure looks like everyone had a great time.

I'm going to steal that rocking chair stage idea for our local monthly club cowboy action matches for the next one I organize....

You are using very small challenging targets, compared to the targets we shoot in SASS competition in the United States. I am impressed.

Do you ever use more than one revolver on a stage?

Are you limited to handguns only? Do you ever use rifle or shotgun in your matches?

Keep making smoke, brother, and have fun!!

Looks like a blast. Nice video - thanks for sharing it.

Cool video! Looks like a great bunch of people, having a great time!

Good video, love the range area. I noticed one particiapnt in the "Calf Rescue" stage was leaning a little to the left in order to find a sight picture "upwind" of the smoke - I've caught myself doing that - HA!

When I first read the title of your post, my mind IMMEDAITELY went to the scenario of a handful of PPC speed-gunners walking up to the stage with fully race-prepped 1911's and magazines bristling out of every inch of their belts; and me wandering up with my 7.5" Remington NMA and three charged "spare" cylinders. It made me smile.......

Okay, I admit that it actually made me laugh out loud.

That looked like fun! How much (if any) cleaning did you have to do between stages?

 

[Tango2]

Thank you all for a good rating.

Next year we will do a separate competitions with lever-action rifles. IPSC rules and WinMSS program is very versatile. Also, we are going to completely withdraw small metal targets in the shooting of revolvers.

I cleaned after each stage.

I speak English poorly. So help me Google translator ...
