Looking for USPSA Matches close to Muncie/Indianapolis

[CB45]

Seriously, I hope to see you on the range at ACC.

 

[Dog1]

I hope you shoot Open, I like competition!

I don't think he's a sandbagger...........

 

[Dog1]

In all seriousness, There are quite a few great clubs around you with a lot of great guys and gals that shoot USPSA. Have fun and come down to Silver Creek when we start having matches..

I'll be shooting production and/or single stack to start with.

 

[CoachStall]

Looks like i'll be joining up with ACC soon to partake, sounds like fun!

Sounds like you have goals, I like it!

 

[Rob377]

We'll see if you guys feel the same when I'm at the top of my division next year

This should be fun.

Question for you experienced folk. Everyone says just start and run what you've got. For me, that's a G19.

I feel like I'm handicapping myself by using a gun with a shorter sight radius. Should I invest in a G17/34, or wait and just shoot the 19 for awhile?

2012 IN State match...
8th out of 70 production shooters.

shoot your 19. Upgrade once youre sure production is the division you want to shoot.

Yes, on the 34.

My advise, get involved with the setup crew at ACC. Its a good way to learn about the sport, and make friends who can teach you the ropes.

I will second that. I met Dan Hart who used to be the match director at ACC at his display table at the 1500 years ago. I eventually got more involved and now shoot limited. I started by visiting the matches and hanging around. I have never been involved in such a welcoming sport. You dont have to be a member to shoot or visit the matches. There used to be a 4-5 hour new shooter class that Dan did on Saturday before the match. It helped me to break the concept that my father built into me ie dont run with a loaded gun! I took that class and it was a great investment. Do the class and come to a match and you'll be up and running. Look at the Atlanta Conservation Club web site and you will find contacts for everyone that is involved. You will not be disappointed. See you there!

I echo Robs comments. Shoot with the 19 for now. You will get opportunities to try other guns as you get to know people. And before you know it you will have to have a special gun for each class you shoot. I said I was done once I built my G35 then I went to ZR Tactical.... Especially at Atlanta you will probably not be shooting much as far as distance so a longer gun may not be of the utmost importance.

I was just there for the first time today. Great place, will be going back for further business.

Sight radius is probably in the bottom 3 things that will ever be a factor in your match performance.

You won't know what you want to buy until you try the game. Shoot what you have, get an idea of what it's about, and how you want to play it. Then you can buy whatever you want!

Alright. Got a belt and mag pouches (CR Speed, as recommended by a friend) and a comp-tac belt holster.

I'll see you all in April.

Hop on up to Ft Wayne 3rd Sunday in March. We're having a classifier match. the courses are a little simpler and more scripted for getting your feet wet, and then you can start right off w/ a classification!

ftw_uspsa@yahoo.com if you have questions.

That's a bit of a stretch from here but I'll see what I can do.

 

[Rob377]

getting the Grandmaster card right away would be an auspicious start to dominating your division the first year.

The only way I could come close to that is if they let me use a Glock 18 instead of a 19.

I have been shooting for awhile and I think my sights are like new, Hardly use. I was ask once why I have that $300 c-more and don't use it.
