Nothing to be sorry for at all. Keep asking questions and going to matches.

Yep I remember those days of staging long guns vertical and not many tables or shelfs to stage anything on.

It’s my understanding that the shotgun primers are not wanted mixed with the rifle and pistol primers. Is that correct?

Correct, and I have seen new shooters do just that. They watched others lay their first pistol down and thought that was the way to go but were not savvy enough to realize it only saves time if the revolvers are last. It has the potential to be a bad habit to develop.

Only 2 shotgun targets also helps 😛

But if the pistols are both shot from the same location for 10 shots then they only need to be holstered after both pistols are shot and before moving to the next location.

All the ones I have been isued would work fine on a single layer of cloth like shirts but did not work at all on my vest pockets which are thicker material. Last one I got that kept falling off I put on my wild rag that was around my neck and it held just fine.

I'm all for having things on a bucket list. One of mine was to visit Cody WY and I achieved that back in the spring of 2023 when I spent about a week there for a meeting of the American Society of Arms Collectors. Now the main thing on my Bucket List is to shoot Cowboy Action in all 50 States while I can still travel (turned 70 last week). I added 6 new states last year after retiring and have made a plan for the next 2 years. Twelve new states this year and I already have the first two done. SO YUL make your self a plan and have fun working to accomplishing it! Post photos and updates as you travel to these ball parks.

You would not find any painting showing him wearing them beause they were pommel pistols to be carried in holsters over a saddle's pommel.

Yep

Hope you will be joining us in Classic Cowboy!

That is CV-05 USS Yorktown, CV-10 USS Yorktown is on display as a museum ship at Patriots Point SC.

Thanks, that is an excellnt work around! Those badges with magnets do not work on my vests at all and are always coming off. Will give this a try the next time I get one of those type badges.
