The other side is folks who neither compete or train. Puzzles the hell out of me.
Case in point: Buddy of mine has always "wanted" to do a class. He has several good suppressed rifles, time and money available for the Pat Rogers class next month. I sort of kicked the slats out from under him when he stated that he wanted to go, but was short magazines. I told him I had enough magazines that he could load all his required ammo up on Friday and shoot till Sunday night. Not sure if it's performance anxiety or what, but while he talks a good game, he ain't going.
Local club has 500 plus members, maybe 75 shoot in the IDPA/USAPSA matches. And a high percentage cross over.
Tango Charlie (back OT), heard one last year that you can tell your RO buddy. Guy buying ammo told the clerk that he didn't want JHPs for his defensive handgun as the hollowpoints opening up in flight limited his effective range.
Correct. Stick with Kel-Tec as a Beta tester.5. It's impossible to hit anything more than 3 yards away with a Ruger LCP.
Ninja rolls. Gotta use Ninja rolls.6. Clearing a room by attempting to "pie" a corner is stupid.
