Entries are open for the next one, I thought the same!

They want to talk that intimidating video off, that man has had too much coffee. ;)

Fancied it but couldn't get a car load together to make it worth while. Plus if a certain person is going (and given his photo is front and centre on the promo poster), there's next to no point turning up! lol

It's great fun, I've shot it a couple of times with Kentucky Firearms Club, a much more lively bunch than many clubs at Bisley. They like running about a bit too much for my liking, but the steel plate challenge is good. And nowhere near as easy as it looks.

I'm going to see if the next competition clashes with anything, if not, I might have a go. Whatever you shoot needs to be reliable, one jam sees you out of the competition.
Careful now/that sort of thing

Just design a course of fire that makes it more awkward for a lefty...

Is it as subtle and subdued as your LBP?
