So on Saturday 19 of us braved the cold (well, ok it wasnt a cold day but it could have been!) to get together and do some shooting. cant speak for everyone else but i know i was getting into withdrawl from not shooting a match. Here are my pictures of the match, sadly my camera ran out of battery partly through the day so im missing picture of one squad and 2 entire stages.

Also, while mass might be great with names, im not so sorry to everyone i dont name in the pictures

Great pictures.

Loading mags in the cold brings the term "numb fingers" to a new level of understanding.

Our ranges have four inches of water on them with a base of ice right now. Fortunately we can get some steel out to shoot on our pistol range.

Hi

You got real lucky! Heck that is a spring day over here. The boys up in Peace River go at it when it is -30 which defines cold.

Winter outside shooting has it's challenges but great fun in any event.
