First time shooter

Recommended Posts

I spoke with 2 guys via email that are running a shotgun steel shoot on Nov 8th at OBRPC.

 

I have never shot competition style and I am very excited. I have a 12ga pump and proper eye and ear protection. Also have the proper ammo. I want to know what else to bring. I was going to use bolt bag or nail apron for shells. Should I bring a chair and food?

 

 

Thanks

Chair and food is always a good idea.  May want a thermos with a hot beverage or soup too!  James Heitz is a member here and a good friend of mine.  He may be along at some point to help answer your questions.  And there may be some shooters who might be able to loan you some equipment too.  OBRPC is a very friendly bunch!

We aren't involved in running these matches, that would be Melissa and Leo.  I am planning on shooting this, gonna be a blast.

Here is a copy of the email they sent out for the upcoming match on 11/8:

 

Dear Shooters:

 

Our next Knockdown Steel Match is going to be a tactical shotgun match. It will be much like a USPSA match shot with shotguns only. There will be movement on almost every stage. The round count for this match will be about 175 rounds of birdshot (8 or 7 1/2) and about 10 slugs.

 

There will be only three divisions for the match: Semiautomatic, Open and Pump.

 

If I can get stage descriptions early I will post them on www.oldbridgeknockdown.com ahead of time.

 

The match fees will be:

$15.00 for members

$25.00 for nonmembers

 

Due to extra setup we will start this match at 10:00 am instead of 9:00 am.

 

PLEASE PLEASE come to the range early to help us setup so we can start the match on time.

Any questions please ask

 

Thank you

    • Sorry, both are SPF.  Being picked up this week. Win M22  22 LR SPF to Ringwoodfrank.
    • Yup I see. Looks like right now you can only purchase the 2023-2024 permit still. I assume won't be able to purchase 24-25 season permit until July.
    • Just a heads-up for anyone who might also be in this situation. I joined USLS mid-April of 2022. Some time after renewing for 2023, I changed email providers, and dutifully reflected my new address on my account page. So, I have been anticipating renewal alerts at my new address, but those never arrived. I logged in to my account the other day, and was surprised to see that my subscription expired that same day. I went to my account main information page, confimed that my email address was correct, then went to the billing page, which showed my previous two payments, but which did not give me any apparent way to pay up for the new year. I requested support using the Customer Service form on the web site, but received no reply. Today I called their support number. Apparently changing the email address from my view of my account page did nothing to change the address that they use internally for billing purposes, including expiration notifications. Maybe they also use that address for replies to the support form, even if a different email address is entered there. Also, my account was set up to auto-renew and charge my credit card without my intervention, but that setting did not show on my account page in any obvious way. So, if you have USLS and have changed your email address since you last renewed, you might want to give them a call to ensure that they send renewal information to your correct address. The prospect of having legal coverage lapse while carrying in NJ was, for me, a less that confidence inspiring experience. I will note that the telephone-based customer service was excellent.
    • F*n imbeciles. They know damned well (or should) that, even if passed by the Colorado Senate and signed into law, virtually that entire load of crap is certain to fail Bruen/Heller scrutiny, and probably sooner, rather than later (SCOTUS). What a monumental waste of time (of course, how much can a dip$h*t's time be worth, anyway?) and energy. I passed through Colorado a few times in the 70s, and visited some clients there in the 80's & 90's, and, even by the end of that period, I had the impression that it was politically fairly conservative (with a few exceptions such as Aspen). WTF happened?
