  1. Also READ the entire "Holsters" section on p.3 of the SHB; particularly in regard to avoiding breaking the 170° safety rule.
  2. This ilustrates the maximum 30º from vertical holster angle allowed "when worn":
  3. FYI: "Holsters may not depart from the vertical by more than 30º when worn." SHB p.3
  4. Personally, (as a sometime percussionist) I would prefer going back to the LT rather than holding up the posse if that's a concern. If not, simply clear it and recap for a restart. I would want to use a nipple pick to make certain that no residue from the fizzled cap causes a repeat FTF. Going to the ULT to do so might require that the shooter be escorted back to the LT if all firearms were not UNloaded (both revolvers decapped and rifle emptied)...all depending on the stage layout.
  5. IMO...NOT a good idea due to mechanical variations between the revolvers most commonly used (e.g., Colt vs. Ruger). Significant benefit to shooters familiar with the model of the staged revolver (especially to the lender). I've seen something similar regarding a single-shot rifle loaded on the clock. Fumbling with an unfamiliar firearm under pressure of a timer running would also be a safety concern. IMO
  6. I recieved these from the ORNG for participating in supplemental training exercises:
  7. Aside from the warranted penalties in the aforementioned scenarios... IF the Timer Operator had stopped the shooter from returning to finish the rifle string with the (apparently) fully functional firearm; the following would have applied: "In the case of a suspected squib, the TO will instruct the shooter to make the firearm safe and continue with the next firearm. If the barrel is later determined to be clear, the shooter will receive a reshoot." SHB p.15
  8. Blackhawks are NOT ALLOWED in categories that specify "Any main match fixed sight revolver may be used" There is no "Traditional" category. It is a shooting STYLE allowed in categories that specify "Revolvers may be shot in any SASS legal shooting style" SHB p.47
  9. REF: Creeker's replies.
  10. No "back boring". magnaport.com
  11. I had both of these Mag-Na-Ported...much nicer to shoot afterwards! 629-1 (Custom ordered from S&W) 686 2M CS1
  12. Try a search for "gluten free tacos"... Taco shells found on Amazon (Old El Paso). 49 Mexican restaurants with gluten free" menus "near me".
  13. Most retail checkouts around here have a "change tray/bowl" in which folks toss pennies (sometimes other small coinage as well). I just returned from a snack run at a local gas station. Total was $20.20...I had a fifty and a dozen singles in my pocket. Handed the clerk the $50 ... he meticulously counted out 20 pennies from the tray...tossed them in the till and gave me a twenty and a ten. 👍
  14. Check Historical Emporium ...example (found by limiting search by size and "in stock")
  15. https://www.slixprings.com/proddetail.php?prod=SliXprings-Firing-Pin Installation Instructions
  16. American Arms Spectre HC 9MM Pistol ???
  17. Not true...targets must be HIT to count. SHB p.5 Also (re loading shotgun shells with rice)...there are no exceptions for any categories: SHB p.27
  18. First pinned comment on YouTube: The Rookie Season 2 Episode 9
  19. American Frontier Firearms LINK to American Handgunner article by John Taffin (that one was "antiqued" by the original owner)
  20. Here are some .44 Colts: AFF 1851 Richards-Mason ASM 1851 Richards-Mason Cimarron (Uberti) 1872 Open Top Army
  21. i'll have dig it out to verify that (very inconvenient at the moment). It's a Colt SAA mfg. in 1902: The .41 mags are Ruger Blackhawks (one is a "New Model"):
  22. Yes. I have SA revolvers in both calibers and a Marlin 1894CCL.
