Well! So this is the thread where Hungry and TimK told me to tell everybody I won with a Norinco SKS over those multi-thousand dollar rifles... but I'm not the kind of guy who brags too much over such stuff. I just enjoyed myself, not feeling more pressure than to try to do my best.
I had those moments when I thought the day would only go bad, because it started all wrong. During the morning practice run, my bullets were hitting the edge of the new compensator I had just bought. All my bullets were going into the berm right at the foot of the target. That was not good! I did not have another chance to test if the rifle was shooting straight after I took the comp off. Still during practice, at the transition to pistol, I let my rifle drop on my sling. The screw holding the swivel just jumped out of its nut, so the rifle went into the ground nose firts, and the stock crashed into the cheap bucket that was at my feet to collect brass, and broke it! I looked down, a little dumbfouded, and forgot about my pistol for a few seconds, then I heard: "...and Stop!" Too late to shoot!
Of course, the afternoon went a little better!

Iloverifles:
I inspected your target throughout the matches and your groups were centered and you were not giving up that many points. Your pistol shots were spot on and that brought more points. You did well with the gear you had, that's what matters.
Evidently, you are a very capable rifle(person)man and I'm glad to promote marksmanship regardless of platform expense! You know your reloading drills and how to deal with other stoppages throughout this intense match! Good on ya!
And that's why I love Service Rifle or Service CQB matches... the better shooter wins the matches not the expensive boomsticks!

wth? you guys got trophies?!
...ok...total newbie jealous of fun missed here!
I haven't shot competitively...ever. I was too young (feel good to type THAT) to join in way back, when my town held turkey shoots....I'm thinking this might have been a bit more "energized" than those!
To show off my ignorance...
-CQB-Close Quarters Battle?
-Do you have to be Military/ex Mil. to participate?
-What, exactly, does the "contest" involve (I read pistol references too...)
...is this a hijack? If so, please accept my apologies, mods, and move to proper forum.
