Front Sight Members Check In Here!
Hmm, I don't have an appropriate holster for my sig or any of my revolvers
Not sure what pistol I'll take
Kids will be using my 23s, the younger one I'll do a 9 conversion
Oh, anyone for the handgun skill builder end of May, I will do this then the family will do rope/rappellingComment

What a dilemma, I have a 4 day rifle class next weekend and I haven't decided on which rifle to play with. I can break out the AR and be like everyone else, empty the bank account get a upper body workout and blast away with the FAL or go old school and give the M1 carbine some love. Decisions decisions.
If you are driving, it's a non issue.
I'm having this exact same dilemma for May: bring the 47 or the 74, 7.62 or 5.45?sigpic

Before they sold ammo onsite I could make some pretty good buys on ammo from the folks in the shotgun class that had to get rid of their excess ammo before their flight back. Worked out pretty well.Last edited by AAShooter; 03-20-2015, 7:13 AM.Comment

Those were the good 'ol days, I did the same thing, came home with a case of bird, 1/2 case of buck and about 50 slugs on one trip. That made it quite easy to sign up for the next SG class.We'll just give them the 'ol number 6.Comment

If you are flying in, the biggest problem is your ammo with two or three rifles in two or three different calibers. Can't have all three calibers shipped to the hotel, because you'll have a hard time flying back with them, if you're not good at lying to the airline that you only have 11 lbs of ammo with you LOL

That said, I've decided to give the M1 carbine some much needed love, plus I need to exercise my eyes and use the iron sights, I'll bring the AR as a back up as the extractor is the week link on the M1. I figured I'll take the FAL on skill builder as it'll be easier to tote that 12lb rifle for 2 days instead of 4.We'll just give them the 'ol number 6.Comment

The weaver works for me too. I immediately took to that style/stance when I first started shooting. I've tried isosceles several times ever since, but I could never warm up to it. Weaver is more comfortable for me and I shoot better with it. Also makes for easier transitioning to other guns/platforms etc. None of which I do just yet. But, nice to know.

...or you can try to combine the two like I did at a local IDPA match.

just got back from 4-day handgun class, took it support side. shot it 12 down (yay!) but I had a couple lates so I missed DG just barely. headshots did me in, if I could have kept them in (missed by less than an inch on all of them), I would have DG'ed even with the lates. oh, well, it was a fun class. heck, driving up, I was just hoping that I would be safe and maybe graduate. I was suprised I was able to pick it up so fast.Jack
Do you want an AOW or C&R SBS/SBR in CA?

I too went into it with the just be safe attitude, was amazed how quickly I adapted (well my eyes didn't), but I no doubtedly need to practice with closed front presentation as I got hung up (don't use a stretchy thermal type of clothing) and ended up rushing my controlled pairs.We'll just give them the 'ol number 6.Comment
