Speaking from memory, you can shoot your Garand, but will not be competitive with the ARs (reloading mostly, 30 round vs 8). You will also have to plan how to manage the stripper clips you will be using, some rifle stages can have 30 - 50 shots.

Ensure you have a holster that will hold your pistol secure while moving.

Shotguns: Probably the simplest shotgun you will see is a 5 shot 870. I shoot a Benelli M1 that holds 8. Some open class shooters will have 9 shot capacity with speedloaders. A two shot shotgun can be used but you will be reloading a bunch.

sskimber, if you do not bring your gear and shoot the match you will regret it.

Best advice bring what you have and have fun. You can always borrow a shotgun, I'll be there just find me.

What rules is the match being run under?
