Three gun match at ORSA

[Paladin132]

Anyone going?

Any tips for the cherry?

Any tips for the cherry?

Shotgun - Know how to load it and load it fast.

Rifle - Know your zero and shoot it accurate.

Pistol - Just shoot it fast...

During the stage carry everything you need and nothing you don't.

Good Luck

[Guest BigJ45]

That's right. Shoot the pistol fast, the rifle accurate, and keep the shotgun loaded and you wil do fine. But most importantly be safe and have fun!

[Paladin132]

I noticed most folks load and top off on the stage I saw, but most training nowadays seems to be to load one round at a time until under cover. Any suggestion on that?

Also looked like most of the rifle work was very close. I rezeroed after an issue with my eotech and now I am worried that it may have been bad timing as I changed the distance. Oh well, such is life!

[Jon_L]

I'll be there. I'll be the guy in the green hat that doesn't know what he's watching.

ETA: Also, I was curious if one that didn't participate could carry at this function?

I observed last time, and they ask that you unload your weapon or secure it in your vehicle so I unloaded and holstered my CCW.

[Jon_L]

Good to know. Thanks!

[Paladin132]

I must have missed both of you. I have to say I had a ball though! it was a great bunch of fun and it was good to be among fellow gun aficionados.

[Jon_L]

My dad and I just hung around a bit in the back to see what all was going on. It looked like a hell of a lot of fun! Afterwards I ran over to Frontier and priced a shotgun for this use.

[Paladin132]

Glad you liked it. I have to say, it more fun to shoot it though.

I was there as an observer this month as well. I think I met you Jon_L at one of the pistol stages. I will definitely be participating next month. If you are even remotely proficient with your firearms, you will enjoy the shoot. There were folks from all levels of skill there and I didn't see any 'gun store commandos' there trying to impress everyone with how much they know. I had a great time and didn't fire a shot.

[Jon_L]

I had expected a whole crowd of "holier than thou" types. I was happy to be proved wrong.

And I remember meeting you, as well. I wish I could remember your name, but I had heard a dozen-or-so while I was there. If you saw a guy in a Deerfield Beach shirt, that was me.

I am glad I fire in the slow group!

I am glad I fire in the slow group!

Doing that bayonet charge at the last silhouette target didn't help your score either...

[Paladin132]

Hey, that one was a mean zombie I had to close with in case I had to go to tomahawk or something if the 5.56 failed to neutralize!

I have thought about joining ORSA, is it worth the membership

[A.J. Holst]

I checked out their website, with membership the competition fees are $10 instead of $15.

Not sure the other benefits of memberships, being so far from Seymour, I can't justify joining.

I am seriously considering the Oct 16 3-gun shoot, since it falls on a Sunday.
