flightlessgreeb Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Me and some friends dropped by a practice match of the Richmond Roughriders last month and became very enthused at the idea of shooting this sport. I even went out and bought my first cowboy hat that day haha Well, the time came around and I got to shoot my first ever match today - everyone at the club was tremendously welcoming, some people lent us shotgun belts, shotguns and even space on a gun cart so we wouldn't have to walk our guns everywhere! A friend went ahead and took this video of me shooting one of the stages: You can see me accidentally eject a live round from the rifle without firing it and bobble the hammers on my SAAs a couple times, but otherwise it went fairly well! No DQs and, while I may be a bit slow and I may have quite a bit of practice ahead of me in gun handling for these old manually operated guns, I still had a ton of fun! Can't wait to make it out to the next practice match in March! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chili Ron Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Howdy an welcome to the camp. Old? Manually operated? SASS is advertised as the next best thing to a time machine. A while back we had a sort of mascot.....DeLorean if you couldn't guess. Most of us would appreciate it if you leave the future behind. The exact year is a bit of a mystery, but if you watch Deadwood thirty or forty times, you will probably get the idea. There are only about 109999 ways to interpret the details. Now for my advise... get a pocket watch, have fun and don't fergit yer canteen. Best CR ps and try to keep the future out of your pix. that is a pretty good picture except for the light pole....
