Hmmmmmm Stan

Check is in the mail...King of Kaboom here I come!!!! Stan

From a 2016 version of the RO1 Stan

I've been using the same curved trigger that came on my Deluxe 1873 from Cody for over 14 years. Uberti used to have different triggers for the deluxe versus the straight stock rifles with the deluxe being more curved. Mine is the more curved version. I know other shooters that are damn fast that like the trigger to have LESS curve or even be straight. It's really a matter of personal preference. Stan

Let's call the current system what it really is.....A way for awards to be given out and make more folks happy. SASS has shown no interest in setting up a skill based system and quite frankly I don't think most folks really care. I'll keep participating within the rules and wear my buckles (Wrangler and 49r) with pride......I earned them! If I get a wild hair one day and drop down to Wrangler or Cowboy at EOT I don't think Matt Black or Deuce Stevens will be too worried. Stan

Most of y'all are equating AGE to SKILL SET......those two are not directly related. AGE Brackets make sense only for shooters with the same SKILL SET. A brand new shooter that is 50 years old will NEVER stand a chance in 49r here in central Florida. There were 7 49r's in the top 12 at our state match last weekend. Please explain to me what is FAIR about making a new shooter that happens to be the same age as me compete in my "category". Until y'all want to tackle SKILL SETS all this other stuff is irrelevant. Stan

So let me this straight.....we came up with Wrangler because a fellow aged 36 can't compete with with a fellow aged 24.....and we came up with 49r because a fellow aged 49 can't compete with a fellow aged 36....and we came up with Senior because a fellow aged 60 can't compete with a fellow aged 49.....am I correct so far? Now the argument is that an older shooter should not be allowed to drop down to lower age brackets because it's unfair to the younger shooters. PULEZZZZZZZEEEEE.....Either the old guys need protection from the young guys or they don't. IT CAN"T BE BOT

Ask a Moderator to fix your account. It has something to do with being a TG. Stan

Ok.....what is the call IF the stage instructions do NOT include the phrase "the shot for the flyer MUST be fired"? I have seen that phrase left out....including at major matches. Stan

Sounds good Pard!

Bring these to the Ides.....please. Stan

I'm going to make the call based on the verbiage in the Shooter's Handbook unless someone can show me a passage I haven't seen that says "Shotgun rounds must be fired to qualify as engaged". Stan

Whoever explained that to you was mistaken.....if those words need to be included then they would be there. Stan

So I walk to the line with 3 shotgun rounds on my body.....the stage calls for 4+......I knockdown 3 of the 4 shotgun targets. Are you going to give me a P and a Miss? Stan

When it comes to handing out P's....there is not a different rule for the shotgun. Unless of course you can tell me what page to find it in the SHB. Not firing the correct number of rounds is not a P in and of itself.....unfired rounds are misses. Stan
