Music City Tactical Shooters DCAPS 4-1-17

[CatsEye]

MCTS will be hosting a Defensive Carbine & Action Pistol match this Saturday at our Dickson range. I have 6 fun and challenging stages planned at a minimum of 119 rounds. Setup starts at 7:00 am with Shooters meeting at 8:45. Rounds down range at 9:00 am. Hope to see you there.

Has a DCAP rulebook been published?

Yeah I was wondering that myself, no need showing up to shoot something that the rules can be changed or made up as you go. But I guess it's better than sitting on the couch.

The rule book will be published at the same time the Mt Juliet range is opened.

Pretty similar to IDPA. Cover and concealment are generally required. You can reload where you choose, dropping magazines that still have rounds without penalty. Magazine capacity options are 11-10-10, or 15-15. If you follow IDPA rules, you will be just fine. Several guys do so that they can compete in IDPA matches, and not have to retrain to those standards.

I will be shooting a PCC most likely this weekend. There are some differences in equipment classes that I don't fully get (for example 1911s and Striker fired pistols are same class, I think - only matters on how many rounds you load in your mags per the above).

Masojoh, thanks for the info. 

When it said "Defensive Carbine & Action Pistol" it wasn't clear to me if it was both firearms at the same time like a 2Gun Rifle/Pistol match.

Think I'll come and shoot one of my PCCs.  

Any round count limitations on the mags for PCC?

As far as I understand, two mags at 15 each for the standard PCC - the same as the handguns (unless you run the three mags at 11-10-10). You can ask about loading more rounds in the mags at the match. Normally there will be at least 18 rounds required per stage, so you will have to reload once.

There may be a steel target or two in the stages. Last month there were some steel that once hit, that triggered moving targets. It was pretty fun. I bring 150 rounds total just to make up shots on the steel if needed.

Thank you everyone for coming out.  Tough match and angles on some arrays.
