    Wish I was bro, but the drive is a little prohibitive.

    You'll have a good time.

    JMS and I shot it today. As usual, fairly large stages (especially for a local, monthly match) with a good amount of movement. Plenty of swingers, bear traps and steel.

    JMS and I "officially" asked one of the match directors about AIWB in Limited. He confirmed what we knew; there are no restrictions regarding holster placement in Limited. We were AIWBing from concealment for most of last season and got some strange looks and a couple "Hey, is that legal?" friendly inquiries. Not necessarily because they had a problem with it, but more that no one else was doing it.

    We're good with AIWB, officially, at Fredericksburg USPSA now.

    Enjoy and good luck!

    It's great to see folks getting USPSA clubs comfortable with AIWB. The club I've been shooting at was cautiously open to the idea when I asked the MD team, though they'd never seen anyone do it before. Hopefully we'll build up a nice track record of zero NDs among AIWB shooters across USPSA.

    I always find it amusing when I see people post about Fredericksburg/Culpeper/etc. I graduated from high school there and my in-laws still live there -- and I couldn't escape quick enough when I had the opportunity to do so.

    While diplomacy works best and I wouldn't use this first...

    If it is a USPSA sanctioned Match, they can't disallow AIWB simply because they don't like to or don't think it should be legal. If it's not prohibited, which it's not, they can't disallow it.

    Unofficial club shooting game? Sure. Their house, their rules.

    This is exactly right.

    The legality of my holster has been questioned a couple of times, but only momentarily when someone thought I was shooting Production based on seeing my gun.

    PROTIP: Pay proper attention to stage briefings. If you do, you reduce your chances of completely missing a mandatory reload.

    If you miss a mandatory reload, the screaming-good time and sweeping A-zone hits on a qualifier turn pretty much immediately to ash as a result of the 6-procedural dog-pile.

    Voice of experience, eh? Ouch.

    It was pretty galling, but at least punkey got a good laugh out of it....silver linings.

    It was very entertaining!

    Nearly as entertaining as my flawless foot work on stage one. Flawless only until I realized the foot was on the WRONG side of the foul line. Two procedural for me.

    We both had our moments, but a good time as always.
