I am gonna try again too this Sunday :-)

Yeah, that was me and thanks :-D Who were you?

I learned that apparently the preferences of the organizer supercede the rule book. Again, lesson learned...

The clearing procedure is about the dumbest thing I have ever heard.

1. You do not pull the trigger unless you want it to go boom

2. I am not real thrilled about potentially damaging internal components of an expensive gun

3. You do not pull the trigger unless you want it to go boom

4. Once clear is demonstrated properly, the rest is hogwash. You could close slide, hammer and holster standing on your head drinking yoru coffee thru your nose and be completely safe after demonstrating clear to 2 different individuals who are supposedly certified to be the safety officers in a competition shooting range

5. Did I mention, "You do not pull the trigger unless you want it to go boom"?

I am sure it will, guess I will just have to force myself to go shoot some stuff weekend after next... 6 whole bucks... sheesh...

Lesson learned:

I as the "Receiver" need to provide more "feedback" to the "Sender" to make sure he/she understands that I received the "message" properly...

I had a great time. Even after DQ I still got to watch since I had to wait anyway to do my Texas CHL Qual.

I am not on edge, nerves, uncomfortable or anything else. It's a sport... ANy sport that everyone walks away from is fine by me :-)

Is there a way for me to tell how I did (some kind of score) up until I DQ'd?

Thanks hoss...

Maybe, but at least I am the up and coming frontrunner in this cat. Maybe next time I will get to finish :-)

I think I just created a new classification, the "You Suck" category... :-)

Thanks J. Right now, I am reading the rules to see if my holster is acceptable. Matrix 7 Right Hip, OWB...

Usually the person taking money can help you with any questions you have.....don't be shocked if the classifier is booked....it happens. I would stay and watch anyway.

2. Bring your gun, holster, mag holder, and at least three mags. I believe the classifier is 90 rounds. Take a little extra just in case you have a malfunction. You do not have to wear concealment clothing during a classifier.

3. Have fun and welcome to your next addiction

OK,
So a buddy of mine says I can walk onto the range tomorrow which is holding an IDPA qualifier. I think I am going to do it. What is the etiquite for walking on? I will read the guidelines tonight at least :-)
