Contest Description

Ray,
I know you posted the PPC description on the other thread but it did not come up for me. It came up all gibberish. Would you please repeat the description of that and the other matches you intend holding. Also, if you can remember where they are, please bring along my old ammo can and the few 12 ga. shotshells that were in there. If no one else is bringing Dillon's VCR tape,"Machine Gun Magic", I'll look around and see if I can find my copy. Quantrill

I still have your old beat up army can sitting next to my ammo locker.


1st event, the rope shoot. 2nd event, the pin shoot, 3rd event, police qualification shoot. Bring a $20.00 and your set for the day.
Bring your own ammo. No hollow points. You will need at least 100 rounds but I would bring more. 60 rounds for the police qual and the rest for the rope & pin shoot. If you have a holster, bring it for the police qual.


Arrival time: 9:30am
Start shooting: 10:00am

Fees: There will be 3 competitions held. Each competition costs $5.00. The winner of each match will win half of the 50/50 pot. The other half will go torwards the club.

Food: All you can eat hotdogs, soda, water, and fruit will be on hand for $5.00.

1st Competition: The rope shoot. Individuals will shoot in groups of 4's. The winner of each group will compete with the other group winners for an over all winner. What is a rope shoot you say? A rope shoot is a laundry line rope that hangs freely in front of the impact area with a suspended log attached to the other end. Individuals start out at 20 yards with 6 shots and try to cut the rope in half. If not done at 20 yards the group moves up to 15 yards and so on in 5 yard incriments until there is a winner.

2nd Competition: The pin shoot. Individuals will shoot in groups of 4's at 4 bowling pins each. With 6 shots you must clear the pins off of the rack and onto the ground. If not done at 20 yards the group moves up to 15 yards and so on in 5 yard incriments until there is a winner.

3rd Competition: The N.J. Police Qualification course. BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND! You will need 60 rounds for this timed shoot. The individual that scores the highest wins.

We are going to shoot the 60 round course of fire starting out at 25 yards and working our way in to 1 yard. Page # 9-62 will give you the rundown on the course for those of you who want to practice. It is Qualification "IS R HQC 1". the course is timed and you will be shooting from various positions, weak hand, drawing from holster reloading, etc.

Any other questions feel free to ask.

I'm still laughing about the title of this thread.

Come to think of it, the last thread was just as funny.

I'm trying to weezle out of my duties Saturday. I have a feeling its probable not going to be until about 6-7pm. There is a possibility I won't be able to make it at all though. I suppose to be going to my Uncle and my two nephews to the shore. But I'm going to see if I can drive down separate and leave early. I'll pack My Colt and Single six but I doubt I'll be there for any of the competitions.

Can anyone play? I feel a road trip coming on (if I don't have to work). Do you have to use the same pistol in all 3 shoots or can you change off?

3 gun....

You can change off. I'll extend the offer to you also. Anybody wanting too can crash at the club that night. I'll be staying down along with K80Geoff, David Park, and a few others. We can sleep 36 individuals so don't feel like it will be cramped quarters. David Park will be bringing a bunch of gun flicks and SodaPop will be providing the popcorn. The more the merrier. Any other questions people feel free to ask.

Quantrill, here's a JPEG of the qualification chart. I hope this helps.

I don't have any machine gun videos or stuff like that, so feel free to bring your Dillon tape.

Ray- what are the most TFL members we've ever had come to one of these shoots?

You always have a lot of "guests" so I always loose track. The most I've ever had was 13 at the "Pop Festival" last January. If we could just get everyone to come back I'd probable have close to 40 TFL members at one of the W&W shoots. I was just thinking the other day that I have met about 75 TFL members. Some just at gun shows (that keep saying they're coming) and the rest at gatherings.

SodaPop.....

We had 10 accual TFLers at the last Jersey shoot and about 5 guests. This up coming gathering is looking pretty good so far. The shoot I went to up at W&W that you were holding was right about the same from what I saw.

PPC

Ray,
WOW! What a change from the way I was taught and later taught others. I shot my first PPC in 1968 at Atlantic City Police range. It was called the FBI Academy Course at that time. Back then, There were no automatics allowed and everything was set-up for a revolver. I still have the original pictured text using only 5 shot loadings in a wheel gun and starting in the prone position at 60 yards. The 5 shot loadings was a holdover from the days of letting your hammer rest on an empty cylinder. One also had to run from cover to cover during the allotted time. Later on I qualified a few police depts. in Atlantic County with a Game Warden who was a pretty savvy pistolero. Mary Lou and I attended the week long NRA Police Firearm Instructor School at Camp Perry 4 years in a row, also attending the Small Arms Firing School (SAFS) conducted by the military for M-16 and service pistol. I have gotten out some of the instructor manuals and looked them over. We also were invited up to NYPD Firearms Unit and spent a day with those folks. We got to meet many people like Bill Jordan, Frank Mcgee, Dan Wesson, and Herb Binsbacher. I shot PPC competition and once shot next to Frank May who was the National Police Champion at that time. Pretty heady stuff for a comparative novice. Didn't mean to run on so but I am amazed at changes that have taken place. Thanks again for transcribing the course for us. Quantrill

I shot the police qualification at my local range today with three different handguns, trying to decide which one to use in NJ. Which target are you going to use, the B21E again? I used a B27E silhouette, which is obviously very easy to hit, and I'm currently studying my groups. I think I'll be using my carry gun, SIG P239 in 9mm, simply because it's easiest to shoot one-handed, which helps during those difficult 25-yard shots.

Tip: don't try the 1-yard drill with hanging paper targets. The first shot blew the target back so it was nearly horizontal, and my second shot ripped a long 3-inch hole through it. After that, I moved the target back to 3 yards.

Oh Great! Everyone is practising for the shoot.

Now I am going to have to practice too if I expect to uphold my last performance.

As I remember the only mandatory one handed hold is the shots at the 5 yard line. The 25 yard shots can be supported.

Since I am going to be using a 1911 I will be able to shoot SA Most of the misses I had last time were shots taken DA.

Where is Rovert, he has been awfull quiet lately, been out workin out with the Kimber?

They are getting ready!

You are correct K80Geoff. The 25 yard shots are with a supporting hand. Looks like you have some serious competition comming your way! 1st place last time was you, 2nd place was FlyinGn, and 3rd was Rovert. Remember, FlyinGn has that new Spectre 45 love fest machine that is half Glock and Half 1911. He's been pretty quiet too............The quiet before the storm


and yes, the B21E will be used again David.
