Thread: My Introduction to pistol shooting

IPSC South Island Champs 2015 Tickets, Dunedin | Eventbrite

Highly recommend it, last years was a blast.

Good on Ya! Mrs R93

@R93

I just have to mention it appears your Missus got the same score as You ............. therefore if she can count better and fumble less, you may be the one who ends up reloading her rounds for her.

Cheers
Pete

That's the 3gun in Wairarapa.
If you wanna go to Dunners and can make it we can go there instead.
I wanted to go to either or.
Let me know definite as I have to do entries for the NI 3gun

I'll have to check my trip schedule but I think I am good for the IPSC in Dunners

Righto we will go. Be cheaper for me than crossing the strait.
We will take the cooks wheels.
Listening to your muffler for 8 hrs might get a bit much😆

It's getting fixed this week while I'm away, but yeah, the surf needs some work before it's comfy for a 7 hour road trip

Bullshit. If us Bogans can make the trip you have to stay.
Where else am I supposed to get all my free ammo, booze and spare shadow parts😆

Last weekend, i had ejected a half mag, just about to rack and show, thinking finished,, then remembered/might have been told about the remaining 2 papers. Back in, and finished...... A real pisser that one, cause i had been scoring the 3 before me......

I will bring it to Dunedin if we go so you can have a shot on the friday.

Yes I have to sort my priorities out a bit - bloody work keeps on getting in the way of the important stuff!!

Depending on how I shoot between now and then, you might beable to score quite a bit of ammo and have a whole shadow for parts, but the booze will take a hammering if that happens, so no promises there.

Looks like I will be having a go and I will be bringing my own gimp.

I will consider renting him out for a packet of Tim Tams or similar currency.

Half day special rate, will cost a bottle of Abalour or Glenmorange.

He will be chained to the tow bar of a black suv when not shooting so it will be purely an honesty thing.😆

He has a habit of slipping his chain when he smells something good.
He will just whimper and sniff so not too much to worry about.

You won't miss us, we will be the 2 wide eyed fellas looking out of our depth.
Gotta cut your teeth somewhere other than the comfort of our own club I spose.

Looking forward to it. Have shot in hundreds of comps all over the world but this will be my first ever with a pistol outside the military so there is some genuine excitement and apprehension I used to get when new to comps.
