Mob, what kind of guns do you have? Semi auto's are allowed but will be scored differently than the SMGs. Also there is going to be a cook out afterwards. Typically, steel and paper targets will be the intended bullet collectors, as far as the COF, well, we will have to wait and see. If shooting a semi pistol caliber carbine , I would bring about 300 to 400 rds

yeah thats how i knew about this one is from Todds email, ive got 22, 223, 308 and 9mm AR15s, then for handguns i have 22,9mm,40, and 45

[sofltodd]

Only pistol caliber guns are allowed in the match. SO bring the 9mm and 40 and 45 goodness and leave the rifles caliber stuff at home. You'll need a pistol and a subgun or a semi auto rifle/carbine/subgun in pistol caliber.

The BBQ at the end of the match is going to be pretty awesome. Nothing like snacking after a day of shooting.

anyone have some subsonic for sale for my 9mm ar, ill post in the other section ,but this one is just in case any of ya FL guys have some that are going to show up to this. my gun likes the dr dater/alabama ammo special K mix but willing to try others

[mob]

and what range are the targets at, so i can make sure everything is sighted in correctly? 7yd, 25yd, 50yrd?

[sofltodd]

targets may be between 1 and 40 yards. No subsonic for sale here.

To wide for them??? We do not ask you to get IN the barrel. If you do not have any mag pouches, your pockets will have to do. Otherwise, you need to by a mag pouch (Blackhawk rig) for you 9mm AR and a Fobus (cheap) pistol mag holder for your Glock. These are just examples as there are many different options. BTW.. just for reference your pistol carbine should be zeroed for 25yds. This is the standard which allows you to hit targets from 0 to 50 yds........

hey, i was wondering, about brass after we shoot, allowed to pick up, gotta leave where it is, or bring ammo catch bag for cases?

as a pmrpc member i can say you are definitely encouraged to pick up any and all brass that you shoot after the match... if you want someone else's brass then just ask. if the last meet i attended was the norm, there's usually a gaggle of windbags undercover that never even look at the range when keith and others are cleaning up the range after a days fun.

[sofltodd]

A gaggle of windbags.. Hell yes... that's the perfect way to say it. I always considered them more of a flock of flappers :jester If you figure 20 - 30 competitors x 200-400 rounds each there is more than enough brass to go around for those interested.

[mob]

hell ill bring a 5 gallon bucket or two, would it be easier for my collection of my stuff to get one of those velcro on bags for the AR, or is it going to interefer with all the shooting
