Glad to see CalGuns working again after the upgrade. Our May match was wonderful on a perfect day for a match! Nice cloud cover, gentle breezes, and most of all, a great group of shooters. Here's a link to the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBVTsMSzltY

Do you have any more info on this event. How many rnds, mags will be needed? Also is shooting from a low ready, or holstered?

[1911-CV]

Sorry about the late response... We shoot 5 stages; 4 are the standard 5-target, 5-string style and the other stage has a 6-plate rack and 10-plate Texas star. A perfect shooter could get through the match with 116 rounds (if my math holds up). Usually a good idea to bring 200 rounds and take some home :-)

Five mags are strongly encouraged, but I've seen people shoot with fewer and have a buddy reload while they shoot.

This is a non-sanctioned, fun match. Our goals are to: 1) be safe; 2) have fun. There are sign up options for pretty much every shooter. We have holstered and non-holstered classifications for centerfire pistols.

It was a great day yesterday with temps at 83 when we started at 8:00 and 93 when we wrapped at 10:30.

Our July 20 match was a scorcher, nudging 90 at the 8:00 am start, but we were ready for it. Canopies were up and ice water was plentiful! Everyone stayed on task, and we sailed through the shooting by 10:00, before the thermometer broke 100. Happy shooters all around.

Come join us in August for some more fun, fast action.

August was a great match and the temperatures cooperated nicely. Didn't hit 90 until we were done. Should be another good day to shoot steel in the desert Sept 21.

September's match was a beautiful morning and the attendance was great! Fall in the desert was really comfortable. Here is video from the match (sorry about the quality).

October had great weather but fewer shooters...not sure why?? We all had fun and were done by 10:30.

Super fun day in December! Got to love the desert 'winter' weather. Good sized match with lots of groups out for some trigger time before the Holidays.

Come join us in January!
