Tooslow Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 Thought I would introduce myself. I am gathering equipment at the moment to get started in this fascinating game. It's hard not to get excited looking at all the cowboy gear. My name is J.R. I live in Lexington Oklahoma. The equipment I currently have is a pair of ruger sass new vaqueros in 357, a stoeger coach gun in 12 gauge and a marlin 1894 cowboy limited edition 44mag. I have ordered a holster rig to start with and plan on trying my hand at making my own shotgun shell belt. Look forward to meeting everyone on the trail!

Edward R S Canby, SASS#59971 Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 You have lots of good CAS shooting within a few hours drive time, the world championship a days drive and the national championship two days drive away. You have lots of fun ahead of you. Your firearms are quite suitable to begin with. Once-fired brass is available for your rifle and easily available for your revolvers. Looking forward to meeting you at a big match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheyenne Ranger, 48747L Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 Also remember there are no clothing police--jeans, boots and long sleeve shirt will pretty much handle it. of course a cowboy hat is always a good idea, too. in other news . . . along with reloading I got into casting bullets--for me it's fun and it helps with the cost of reloads. but even if you don't cast, reloading is the only way to go in CAS cheyenne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once I find a bullet I like in the 38s I will buy a mold. I have a hat, boots, spurs and a vest already. May not all be period correct but can be upgraded as I go. Lol Thanks J.R.
