    NRA Range - Plate Rack Challenge

    I am not a regular poster here on PF, but I am an avid consumer of the wisdom and humor of this site. I was just wondering how many of you were at the Sunday night Plate Rack Challenge at the NRA range in Fairfax VA? Maybe next time I won't be so anti-social and will go around and introduce myself.

    As a note, I didn't shoot as well as the others but shot better than I expected. It is kinda tough shooting a G17 against an Open Gun!!

    If I knew it was happening, I would have gone.

    I was there. I ran my revolver against a few semi-autos near the end, but got hung up on procedure and lost two of three match-ups.

    I did borrow a Glock 19C and tried it against the eventual winner of the semi-auto class, and was narrowly defeated both times. Heck of a lot of fun, though!

    It was a great time (My first time shooting steel). I am attaching a link to the page on this site that basically determines my weekend schedule. Thankfully, I can shirk most of my responsibilities and go shooting as often as possible.

    I was there. I did well last time, but got utterly spanked this time. I wish I could be like JV and totally rock the plates!

    12 yards, or thereabouts. There were just two divisions: Revolver and Semi-Auto. Most equipment is legal (dunno about lasers, but red dots are OK), can start at low-ready or from a holster, reloads from your belt or off the table. Mandatory reload (only mag change required; no requirement to cycle the action) between the plates and the popper.
