First I've heard mention of NCOWS. I just looked it up, there aren't any clubs in Ohio but there's one a reasonable distance in Indiana. Definitely worth some more research.
If it is the Scarlett Mask Society by Martinsville, @Raton Rick is a member. I used to be a member. You will enjoy it.

You live in NCOWS country. I recommend along with SASS you check out the NCOWS clubs in your area.

Well, that's unexpected. So now what? SUV Ryder? Pickup Ryder? Next up will be all those S&W revolvers!

I shoot early shift on Saturday. I'd offer to pick you up after 11 AM from visitor parking and drop you where you want to set up, if that works for you. Otherwise, ask the shoot for one of the rangers to come get you with a 4 wheeler (cart).
If you want me to shuttle you, PM me for my phone # and provide me yours so we can connect after my early shift shoot.
If you have connections with pards before 11, then a ranger is probably the way to get where you need to go.
good luck, GJ
Thanks. I think Rattlesnake Slim has me set up with a press pass so I can get close with my truck and gear.

I am coming down on Saturday to take some photos of a few antique firearms folks are bringing for me for a few articles I am working on. I will be bringing a folding table and a few props for the photos. Is there an area I can park that will allow me to be close to the tents so I can do what I need to do? Trying to juggle all that on the shuttle from the visitor parking lot won't work. Please PM me with details on how I can get this done.

I was given this as a gift but it doesn't suit me. Not worn other than in front of a mirror. The hatband is not included.
$75 at EOT on Saturday.
I take Venmo, PayPal, cash, check, or MO.
For an additional $75 I can make a rattlesnake vertebrae hatband to go with it.

Little used Mossberg 308 Patriot bolt action rifle. Has corrosion resistant finish and laminate wood stock. I have shot this sub MOA. Comes with some factory ammo. I will be at EOT Saturday. $500 firm.

I bought these to be my NCOWS pistols then moved to a state with no NCOWS clubs.
I think I fired one when I first got them. They both look unfired. 7.5” barrels. 45 Colt.
$1150 for both. I will be at EOT Saturday. If you are from out of state you will need to work out the logistics of getting them to an FFL in your state. I assume there will be FFLs at EOT to assist you.

Red Dot is about as close as you’re going to get to your requirements unless Trail Boss comes back soon. But even with Red Dot I don’t believe it’s going to over fill the case to the point it’s spilling out.

Bookmarked for future reference.

Just now, Mad Major Shelton said:
So I know there is a CAS range, South River Shootists, about 2 hours away from me on the southern side of Atlanta near Covington GA. Is there a website that shows different ranges that host CAS matches? There are several commercial ranges nearby me here in FT Eisenhower (formerly known as FT Gordon) but I have never heard of any hosting a CAS event. Anybody can point me in the right direction?
Have you looked at the map in the forum here?

Hello Larsen,
I will take number 6 if you will take a check. I am already on my way to EOT and don't have enough cash on me.

Thank you for saving me! I have wanted one for a decade for no other reason than I want one.

From the NRA:
Last month’s 46th Annual Shooting, Hunting and Outdoor Trade (SHOT) Show set new benchmarks with a record number of exhibitors attending and expanded show floor space to address what is one of the nation’s fastest-growing industries. It was the largest SHOT Show ever held.
Hosted by the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF)—the firearm industry trade association—more than 55,400 industry professionals attended the event in Las Vegas, Nev., Jan. 23 to Jan. 26. Among them was a team from American Rifleman, scouring the more than 13.9 miles of aisles to bring you everything that’s “New for 2024” in our news coverage.
For the third year in a row, exhibit space at Caesars Forum was expanded to accommodate the demand, adding to the already-existing square footage in The Venetian Expo. More than 2,600 companies displayed products and services in booths covering more than 821,000 sq.-ft. The show included attendees from 117 countries and every state in the nation.
“The energy on the SHOT Show floor this year was off the charts,” said Chris Dolnack, NSSF senior vice president and chief customer officer. “The feedback we’ve received from our exhibitors and attendees has been amazing, and we can’t thank them all enough for helping us make the show what it is: the greatest trade show in the world.”
NSSF also presented its highest honor—the Ken Sedlecky Lifetime Achievement Award—to Steve Hornady, President of Hornady Manufacturing Company at the SHOT Show. It recognizes his long-term commitment to the success of the industry and efforts to promote, protect and preserve hunting and the shooting sports.
Trade show volume aside, firearm sales as reflected by the number of National Instant Criminal Background System checks conducted by the FBI remain above the one-million-a-month mark, too. NSSF estimates January’s purchases came in at 1,197,294. The figure reflects a decrease when compared to the same period in 2023, but it makes last month the 54th in a row that reached seven figures.

If you are not shooting Classic Cowboy, you will be slowed down using an external hammered shotgun. It takes a great deal of practice to operate one quickly. Most non-CC shooters go with a 97 or an internal hammered side-by-side. You really, really, really need to attend a few matches to see what other shooters are using before buying any guns or gear. It will save your wallet.
