Cowboy Action Shoot - My First - A Great Weekend

[qws]

I thought a few forum members may be interested in the BWSS competition shoot over this last weekend at North Cotes Butts. It was my go at being a "Cowboy" along with 16 other on the Saturday and 14 on the Sunday. We all took part in a 6 stage comp shooting Revolver, Rifle and Shot Gun. We also had some using 1911 Semi in the Wild bunch competition this using the GSG 1911, Underlever Rifle and Pump Shotgun. Everyone had a very good time the welcome for a first timer was fantastic. Everyone was their to help me had I had any problems, they even loaned me equipment and spare guns so I could fully take part in the comp.

We had a surprise visit by Christal and Ovenpa, who took a few photo's - So it would be good to see what Christal caught on camera.

If you have not tried this yet come along to the next meeting on Feb 20th at Burgh Le Marsh at the Lincolnshire Shooting Centre. This is an indoor range so the little wind and rain we had will not be a problem.

If you want more info you are welcome to PM me.

Will send next report after the next shoot.

It was good to head over, say hello and have a look and tied in nicely with our morning. Quite fascinating to talk to some of the competitors and see what sort of modifications and improvements they are running. It looks like great fun and not so different to the competitions we shoot at NCB.

It was only the Viking with the camera as I seldom pick the thing up, she is taking pictures for the North Coates Club web site at the moment so is wandering around snapping away so no pictures of her on this occasion.
