Machine Gun Match

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.
