Category: Machine Gun Match

This was the first match of our season and the weather was hot but not unbearable. We started the season with a Subgun only match that was a run and gun type COF. The shooter started in a box and upon signal to fire had to engage as least one target before moving forward. Targets were taken at shooters discretion. Another shooting box was downrange and the final target had to be taken from that position.  We had a good turnout and the match moved quickly. A team event followed the main match. Since we did not change the COF we used the Mulligan type scoring method. Your worst time was thrown out and only your fastest run counted for score.  Check out the scores in the stock and unlimited class. It doesn’t get any closer that that. Less than a half second between the top three shooters. Next month we will be doing a TWO GUN MATCH. You will need a Centerfire Handgun and a Subgun. Match will be held on   10/10/21 at 0900. Setup at 0800

This was the fifth match of our new season. We are still under restrictions from the Kung Flu Virus and were required to follow all the protocols required by our Esteemed Governor. We did get lucky with the weather this month. It was cool and slightly overcast but no wind so it could have been worse. We had a good turnout despite the restrictions, cold weather and severe ammo shortage. The match was a 2 stage Subgun match with the shooter starting with the three paper and one steel target. The shooter moved to the second stage and engaged an array of steel targets in a specific order and finished with a stop plate. The course of fire was modified for the second run. The match moved quickly, and we finished early. A team event followed the main event and it seemed that youth triumphed over age and experience. Nice shooting boys. Next month will be our annual St Valentine’s  Day match. We will have a special class for Thompsons so dust off those choppers and have some fun. The match will be on 02/14/21.

This was the seventh match of our season and the weather was very nice. It was clear with a little breeze so we go lucky.  This was our annual Belt Fed Bowling Pin Match. We had a good turnout and the match moved quickly. There were three main classes for this match. Belt Fed, Assault Rifle and Subgun. The match was very simple. Take out 20 bowling pins in the fastest possible time. Matt Babb brought the trophy back and took it home again with his partner Mike Berkeypile who won the Belt Fed class with twin M240‘s. In the Subgun  class the times were very close with about one half of a second separating  the first 2 shooters. Wow. A Mad Minute event followed the main match which was great fun.
