            Go for accuracy and not speed. Show the folks that you are safe and accurate and everybody will love you.

              I didn't know the national is here! I would have signed up w/ IDPA if I knew it.

                I shoot my certification match tomorrow! Class went pretty well today. I just need to remember to pocket my mags instead of dropping them!

                  I think IDPA allows you to drop your mags w/o penalty if they are empty. I've found it is just easier to shoot until slide lock in IDPa.

                    They do but I was doing mag changes so I can finish a position without reloading. Mags had 3 rds each in them and its a big time penalty if I drop em. I'm just gonna go real slow tomorrow and make sure I don't dq.

                      Nobody will care about your score. Show that you can listen and can handle a gun safely. That is all that will matter.

                        Actually I only started collecting Milsurps 3 years ago. I think I might own about 24...They're cheaper than guns that will most likely never get the opportunity to kill somebody...

                        I belong to the group that uses firearms, and knows which bathroom to use.

                        Tis better to have Trolled & lost, Than to never have Trolled, at all.

                          Please don't take too long picking up brass; it just makes the match last way too long and make people like you less.

                          If you just casually pick up your brass, I (and many others) will help you, but I just don't understand the folks who delays everybody to pick up his (and other leftovers) brass.
