Raincrow Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 I just remembered that "Thug" is from the religious assassins for the Indian cult of Kali who the Brits had a hell of a time dealing with. Pretty sure was also referred to in one of Moore's Bond films. hmmmm nothing is "safe" to play with anymore? My bad brain cells just recalled it was a silly Indiana Jones movie with the screaming fem fatale and the plucky local kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirk James Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 "Two Handed Shooter" works for me. I liked Modern in the beginning, but started to take away from the Cowboy Action the more I thought about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went and watched my first CAS match and the first thing that struck me odd was the majority shooting with two hands. I'm thinking, "What is this? Cowboys never shot with two hands - even in the westerns.". I've shot autoloaders and double actions with two handed holds but always shot single actions with my strong hand. As I learned more about categories, I was ok, I could shoot duelist. And I came to the reality that this is a fanticy game. A few years ago I started shooting USPSA to help me with my Wild Bunch shooting. The first day I shot, one of the experienced shooters told me I would shoot better if I shot two handed. I told him I was shooting two handed. He laughed and told me my off hand was barely touching the pistol. I thought about it a little and realized he was right. Ever since I have shot my Wild Bunch Traditional. If you actually look at how most of us shoot two handed, we are really shooting one handed with our off hand thumbs working the hammer. That is important if you weren't blessed with big thumbs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I shot IDPA after CAS for a few years the guys would joke that I "went Cowboy again" because I would instinctively shoot one handed. I am more comfortable with that. A buddy of mine that shot CAS two-handed was shooting his 1911 at an IDPA match and he caught himself trying to cock his hammer with his off-hand thumb. It was funny to watch because it was a hard habit to break for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OH I HATE FIBERGLASS!!!! Whenever I'm blowing fiberglass insulation I purchase a tyvek full body suit with gloves, goggles, and a respirator. If I can't do that then long sleeve shirts, pants and gloves with all openings duct taped and I wear a thin full face mask with goggles and a respirator. I found that showering immediately afterwards with COLD water really seems to help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
