Jon, I wonder where you get that BS? I know exactly where you get it, of course. I get it too...and I hate it.
Please consider the difference between golf, a 'game', and IDPA / IPSC.
But I can't put on pearl grips?!?! What the heck?
Archie,
I bet you aren't a big baseball fan
The only thing that really bugs me about the shooters is the born-again converts. The guys who preach that the only way to do it is the "tatical way" I shoot to have fun. I don't take it too seriously, it is after all a game
Let me get this straight, I am supposed to grab a mag out of my gun, which takes longer, and store it for later use. Now later when I grab a mag thinking it is full only to find out it has two rounds left about the time I need another round. I am going to assume there is no lull, until my opponent is neutralized, then I am going to drop my mag a load a fresh one.
Which school would that be? None of the police academies I know use it. FBI academy doesn't use it. I don't like it but I realize it is part of the game, I just get ticked when some gunstore commando insists it is the "tatical" way.go to skul and learn how to do a tactical reload and how it's used before you complain about it being useless.
I do have to agree with you about the super-zealous tactical types. I carry a gun for a living and I've never had to hold a knife between my teeth.
The simple way to solve this problem is to shoot a real, oops, I mean Wheel, gun.

as I said above, one of these places originated the idea.Gunsite, Thunder ranch,
FBI does, too.
I am not saying they don't have their place, I am just saying they don't have their place in a gunfight.
Were it golf with guns there would be a hot chick driving a beer cart. I feel cheated.

Range Lawyers are scum.
But the FARM is in the middle of Happy Valley (Provo area). No beer carts ANYWHERE in Happy Valley... In fact, as far as I can tell, NO BEER in Happy Valley.
