Yul Lose Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 (edited) The Dale Gang currently has 7 members with another starting to shoot next year. They shoot with the Woodstock Regulators and the Southern Regulators. The Dale Gang consists of: Buckshot Bear, grandfather Jenorado, grandmother Red Justice, eldest son Lady Mercy, daughter in law Young Maverick, grandson Tommy Two Guns, younger son Gemstone, daughter in law Their shooting irons consist of 8 Ruger New Vaqueros, 2 Ruger Wranglers, 4 Uberti 1873’s, 1 Winchester 9422, 3 Stoeger shotguns, and 2CZ hammered doubles and a Bond Arms derringer all in .38 caliber with the SG’s being 12 gauge. The Wranglers and Winchester in.22 of course. They shoot 3 weekends a month CAS and Wild Bunch and IPSC on occasion. Buckshot Bear is the reloader on a Dillon 650 set up for .38 caliber. With my marginal internet and his marginal internet down there he wasn’t able to send the pictures so he’s going to load them on the thread as replies.

Buckshot Bear Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 We all started together in 2021, which isn’t that long, but we’ve thrown ourselves into it that's for sure.....we've all shot competitively for a long time, our biggest regret is that we didn't take up Single Action Shooting a long time ago! For a laugh we put these magnets on our fleet of cars when we go away for a match, We have two heavily laden guncarts...so far – The whole Dale Gang (Minus Gemstone and Tommy Two Guns who are pregnant with our third grandbaby) – Some photos one of my pards on the Wire did for myself and Jenorado – Our two sons Tommy Two Guns and Red Justice 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckshot Bear Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 If the U.S pard who so kindly made those photos above into the 'oil paintings' with a computer program a couple of years ago happens to see them in this thread. Could you please reach out to me? Unfortunately, cleaning out my forum email box I have lost your details. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckshot Bear Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 Sorry pards, yep more photos. Now our gun carts are hardly worthy of even having that moniker attached to them compared to Yul's handmade creations of art (and like a LOT of U.S pards Yul has corresponded with me for a couple of years on wheels and such sharing his knowledge and expertise and helping me out with plans ect and even offering to send me bits and pieces). Our gun carts continuously get added to, Jenorado's and mine now has 4 x Vaqueros, 2 x Uberti '73's, Winchester 9422, 12g Boito, 12g Huglu Hammer gun, .45-70 Sharps and a Bond Snake Slayer. As mentioned, over my time on the Wire I have has SO MUCH friendliness from U.S pards, its been an incredible experience. There has been a lot of packages going from Oz to the U.S and vice versa. The generosity and willingness of pards to help other pards in CAS is something that we have never experienced in any other shooting sports. Shooting at Aussie CAS matches everyone feels like family! The decals on the cart have all come from U.S pards generosity. Also a U.S pard made me up on their computer '6 dots' evenly spaced like a six shooters cylinder so I could use a punch to make drill start holes for putting the .38 brass shells in the circles drilled out on the cart. On my metal lathe I bored out the aluminium handles on my rifle and pistol squib brass rods and put 12g shells in the end. The cart(s) are always getting updated with something or other! I know we're in Oz, but we really feel like a part of a large international 'posse' and there's just NOBODY like cowboys and cowgirls!!!!!!!!!! 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing for a lever SG for a pump SG just need to be a farmer and apply. Stupid thing is anyone can buy the new Adler (and the like) SGs and they are wayyy faster than a clunky pump... But not legal for SASS. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
