Great photos!!!!

Ah, Thanks

But when I get the video's done you can see our ColMike shooting stage 10 and you can watch me implode as my extractor breaks on stage 7 on my '97 pump and it has be be a stage with 6 shotgun plates...Yep, I had to keep going and try to extract each shell by hand...The stage should have been a 36-42 sec stage for me but it wound up at 103 sec...and after that it was all over for e except for the fun and the friends.
If you shoot enough matches, sooner or later MR.Murphy will jump up and say hello (even in the old west) and when that happens Well................

GaryR

That look soooo cool. Alot of detail. Looking forward to more!

So cool.

It looks like great fun just to be a spectator and a blast to compete. I really like the gear carts? First time I have seen them. Can't wait for the videos. Thanks for the thread.

Looks like a lot of fun, thanks for posting pics

great camera work, GaryR

looks like a fun time

Thanks for posting the pics / vid, that certainly looks like a great time. :cool:

Thanks so much for posting the pics/vid and such, I was supposed to meet up with the Colonel there, but lost a damn server due to hardware failure, and my salaried behind got to stay up for over 40 hours getting things back in order.

Missed it by ....well a lot!

Hope y'all had a great time, sorry Colonel maybe next time!

Well Howdy again

Now you can watch and see what happens when an ejector and extractor breaks in a '97 pump gun for 1920.
You wind up pulling all of the rounds by hand you shoot a stage that should not be over 38 sec and you do it 106 sec (because you and Mr Murphy do not want to take the 5 shot penalty and ground the gun)
If you listen to the end of the video you will be able to hear what I thought of the problem.
And then it was well ...................
It problem caused me not finishing in the top 5 along with a procedure on Saturday.......
Oh, well there is the next one in February and we will see how that goes..........

So I handed off the camera to ColMike and let him go to it....I then edited the video in post processing and here it is

GaryR

Great pictures and video. Thanks. Are well behaved spectators welcome? I would love to see that or other similar events in Florida. The photography is spectacular.

Yes, we have a two day Match at the Gold Coast Gunslingers this February 14 & 15, 2015 at Markham Park in Ft Lauderdale, Florida.

It is 10 stages 5 each day...The set up is good but not as fancy as the state match in St Augustine.
All are welcome...Bring eye & ear protection (A MUST)

need additional info contact me

YeeHaaaaa
