    <wants...to...come...>

    But being a relative newly-wed and it being Valentine's Day weekend...I may have better things to occupy my time.

    Just sayin'...

    Nate, I'm pretty sure there's a joke in there somewhere but I can't seem to find it.:dunno:

    Man, guess I shoulda re-read that one! :):

    Really though, if a friend wants to come and just watch, that's OK, right? I don't wanna step on anyones toes or anything so I thought I'd ask.

    I am very disappoint in there not being a helicopter.

    I rented a helicopter for the last three days to practice my shooting while fast roping.

    All that time and money wasted. :xmad:

    Spectators are always welcome. Make sure they have eye and ear protection.

    Could someone walk me through a typical stage of fire? Never done anything remotely similar to this, but it sounds like fun.


    If you go back and look at post 50 there is a Youtube video of a stage from last summer. If you have anyother questions please ask and I will try and answer them.

    Most stages have ~5 or 6 targets to engage, and each stage is shot as 3 separate strings. Bring 150 rounds for each gun you intend to shoot.

    Pretty much as Josh has it :)

    I had mags on my belt, but ended up reloading off the barrel in front more often than not.

    Also, I bring 200 rounds just to be safe.

    It's a lot of fun though, hope you can make it!

    Josh, now that sounds like a course of fire I'd be able to pull off!

    Nate, not this time, girlfriend thinks for whatever reason I should spend Valentines Day with her. Is this a weekly thing, or every month?

    so to recap,

    I need to bring the video cam, the G23, 5 mags, 2x2 mag holders, 200 rounds, ear/eye protection and $15

    Sound about right?

    you do not have to have mag holders if you don 't have them already. You can use the barrel at the stage to place your mags on while at the shooting line.

    But yes, sounds good!
