UPDATE: South Texas FAL, L1A1, FN49 Fun Match

The “first-ever” South Texas FAL/L1A1/FN-49 100 Yard Match last October was great fun, with absolutely perfect weather at the STMTC range within the Blackhawk Shooting Complex just south of San Antonio. There was plenty of room on the firing line as, unfortunately, a bunch of "probable entrants" had to drop out due to last minute conflicts.

Shooting a Venezuelan 7mm FN-49, Keith (of Houston) took home the first place prize of a Brownell's gift card. The firing line photo below shows the shooters warming up for the standing course of fire. The Winners Circle photo shows, left to right, Al (second place), Keith (first place), and Philip (third place, and meet organizer).

We are already making plans to repeat the event in 2015, with some serious prize sponsorships to entice those needing more motivation. Watch this space.
