The FIRST Bisley Open Meeting for M-L "handguns" this year.
Posted: Fri Aug 07, 2020 8:33 am
Surrey Branch MLAGB had on their 2020 calendar THREE of the "Repeating Pistol Meetings" which they have been developing for a number of years.
Sadly the ATSC had to cancel their Open Meeeting in April, and as the "Imperial Meeting" was cancelled our involvement alongside the NRA "GR&P" events dueing the "middle weekend" was cancelled.
We are, however, VERY please to confirm that the third of our Open Meetings WILL take place on Cheylesmore !B" on 26/27 September.
We have attached the EntryForm and the Downloads section of the Branch website contains basic R&Rs plus a very useful table showing what is eligible for each Match / Class / Course of Fire.
As "old hands" know, the 15-shot (+ sighters) Courses of Fire are based on pre-WW1 Revolver Courses --- Slow-, Timed- and Rapid-fire, "Bobber" (turning target) and "Surrenden (against the clock).
There are classes for "Standard Percussion revolver" (19th C + fixed sight ROA) -- - 1 and 2 handed; Percussion Target Revolver (incl. Standard) - offhand only but improved versions (sights, grips.... ) allowed; Free Percussion Revolver -- 2 handed allowed ---------- apart from original revolvers BP substitutes allowed IF th erevolver is "Of Proof" for the propellant.
PLUS
"Modern Muzzle-loader" -- smokeless conversions, "Patriot" block loader, modern DA smokeless MLs (Westlake etc...)
It MUST be the cheapest Open Meeting at Bisley -- especially if you can claim the various disounts and/or block-book a firing point.
Try it!
