The typical answer: I needed the money. I was finishing a remodel of a house we inherited and ran out of money. Eventually had to sell most of what I had in 2005, sadly. The carbine I still have is my favorite and is easily accurate enough for combat shooting.
Stimpy: your grief is noted.. hehehehhe.

Day-um...
I wish I'da seen this stuff a month or so back. Looks like loads of fun! (And not toooo terribly far from home, 3 or so hours) You guys'll be doing this again around this time next year? If so, I guess I'll have to actually figure out how to handle aperture sights, so's I don't fully embarrass myself if I come! ![]() |

Don't let that stop you from coming. Bring your rifle, ammo, and mags -plenty of mags
![]() This match is not about the competition, it is about shooting FAL's and having fun. And that's what we do.

If you need ammo, I will sell you a battlepack of SA for $100. Or if you really want to go cheap, I have VZ corrosive for $35/100. But only at the match!

Haha, I guess I'll have to come, then. Should be able to work it into my Easter weekend plans.
Hagar, that would cover one of my concerns, thanks man! ![]() Otis, I have not tried Moses' steel yet. (Actually never even heard of those matches!) I'm relatively new to the 'modern-sport-rifle'/FAL community, and to the area. Could you provide some more info? |
