I just heard about this board and thought I would
drop by. Unfortunately, the first post I read is a cut
down of someone elses choice of shooting sport. Good
Lord! Who cares what type of "game" a person chooses.
They are still shooting and bringing new enthusiasts
into their sport right? IDPA vs IPSC? Who cares?
Silouhette vs trap? who cares? I like IPSC. I don't want to
have to "defend" it, I just want to have fun and help
support other shooting enthusiasts no matter what they
choose. Maybe I will check this board again later, but it
sure wasn't what I was hoping to see. Good luck
ladies.

It was not my intention to defame anyone elses shooting game, just to point out that it was a GAME, and why I no longer played at it. No offense ment to those...
LadyBear1954....The arguement between IPSC and IDPA is all over the Web. My suggestion to you is to enjoy your affiliation with IPSC and ignore the comments of...
Midwest_Lass....Not a thing wrong with Sniper308's Remington Golden Sabers. A lot of PD's have gone to them. I just like what I like. Go with what feels best...
That was my point. It is just a game. I just get tired of people arguing over whose game is better. It doesn't matter. Yes, you ARE entitled to your own ...
Yes Leon, it is all over the web. That is why I thought I would drop in here. I was hoping NOT to find the same old arguements. I just want to get information...
LadyBear1954.....Fell better now? (Smile) Relax and enjoy. If you readback..no one meant any harm. The written word is often the most misunderstood since there...
LOL Leon. Yes, I feel better. As for those questions, maybe "Lass" can give me an answer on going to the ladies room with all that damn gear on. Especially...
Thanks Leonmichel and Sniper for your input. I also just heard about a type of ammo that is "safer" for condos --- and I'll be darned if I can think of the...
What you may be talking about is something called the Glaser Safety Slug. At least that's what it used to be called. Extreme loss of energy upon soft tissue....

That subject in the previous post should have said "Women's Gear Tips" - don't know what happened to the "Gear Tips" part........ <br><br>Chalk it up to being...
Glaser Safety Slugs or Mag Safes. Both are frangible and won't penetrate several walls in apartment buildings, et cetera. Yes, it is HIGHLY expensive (not...
Mag Safe! That's it! Thanks Sniper3O8! I knew it was Mag-something and couldn't remember. <br><br>Midwest_Lass <br>(I really am going to bed now.......
Both the Mag Safe and the Glaser Safety Slug have proven themselves to be excellent stoppers, and much less prone to overpenetration in walls, but the one ...
Mid_West Lass... What kind of ammo you using in that Ruger? I had one of the Stainless Gov't Comp target models that eventually gave me trouble with ammo as...

MidWest_Lass....<br><br>Ok..forget the CCI Green Tag...and stay away from any 22 ammo that's says "Match" if you intend to do rapid firing. Match quality ammo...

I attended a manufacturer's shoot at my local gun shop today. I *thought* I would be there a few hours, and shoot a few guns........ <br><br>Well, I was there...
Lass: I noticed that you said you gripped the gun very tight and locked your arms. Try *not* to do that. By locking your arms there is no absorbtion for the ...
Quite right, about holding on tight. Your body should be, with regard to shooting handguns, like a shock absorber. If you can imagine driving over potholes in...
