ARPC still doing Speed Steel?

[NWGlockgal]

I knew it was someone here on the forum! Lol
Well done, sir!

Congrats on your 2nd place finishes!

One day I wont have to work on a speed steel day...

Call in sick!

Hey, I didn't know you were there today. Didn't see you. Congrats on the win!

Thank you. Looks like you had a good day as well

 

[NWGlockgal]

Thank you. Looks like you had a good day as well

Actually I went down 10 places from the last match! Adapting to a new red dot, and trying to use it properly!
But thanks! It was a fun day.

Well at least you didn't have to worry about the safety!

Lol. I for one played by the tcgc rules and applied the safety so i wouldnt create any bad habits.

LOL! I'm so happy they don't make us use it in Albany.

I hate using the safety. I think it actually makes things less safe! I have to change my grip to reach it, and then change it again when I have it flipped off. Would be better just to have and keep a good grip from the beginning. Can't tell that to TCGC though.

Very interesting burn back on Bay 8, looks like the entire hillside barely escaped. I hadn't heard the official story, it looks like we need some rain though.

 

[spookshack]

I was told by the club president that it was caused by a .223 that ricocheted. It actually started in bay 7, then spread to bay 8. The FD got the real quick and attacked it in bay 8. He said they were very lucky....

Still waiting to hear the damage assessment from the resent fire at DRRC....

Thanks for all coming, it was a great day for a match.

I planned on just shooting it but the interim Match Director had work needs come up and could not run it. I was also requested months ago to ensure the August match would happen for someones milestone birthday. I could not let down one of the regions most regular and long term shooting match attendee's.

Unfortunately ARPC Speed Steel is still looking for a permanent Match Director. The club leadership has recognized speed steel as beneficial to the club members and it's goals and wants it to continue. It needs a skilled member(s) committed to running it safely and organized long term. I hope people interested step up. Until then, I will help if my schedule allows.

If your interested in helping or leading ARPC Speed Steel matches please contact me. It is a really easy match to prep, set up and run. A couple people already usually help with set up and tear down. It really needs people willing to handle electronic scoring and ensuring the match is run by club and speed steel rules.

While I clearly "learned my lesson" by not unloading my gun via firing the round in the chamber down range AFTER I was instructed to "unload and show clear", I appreciate the reminder for the TRi-County folks.

If it didn't take me an hour and a half to get there, I would volunteer to help out before or after the match. However, I am willing to help out while I'm there with whatever help is needed.

I feel your pain...

 

[Throckmorton]

is Albany's speed steel open to the public ? I've shot it at TCGC,but moved too far away to go there anymore

 

[spookshack]

It sure is.

I was out there Wednesday night and the ranges were still closed. Not sure what is going on past that.
