Your 3-Gun Rifle Setup?

[Cavs42]

You guys run 3G in the great white north Cavs42?

Unfortunately, no. That's what I was running for 3-gun at Spruce Grove while I was in Edmonton. There appears to be some service rifle happening up here though, so that looks promising. Might have to go with a magnified optic though... Vortex Spitfire 3x perhaps!

Cool. You ever shoot with me? In Spruce Grove at a WRAS shoot? Sam and company put on a great match.

I have an ACOG in the classifieds!

I think this year I'm gonna try a 9mm.

 

[Stevo]

It will be easier to carry 87 rounds of 9mm, eh?

Well I'm not getting any younger and my eyes have never really been that good, so you can never really have enough can you?

Nope. Wait til you hit my age!

Nice setup JohnnyMac. Nobody sells Glock in your neck of the woods?

 

[Cavs42]

It's possible, There were always a bunch of guys out. I did shoot WRAS matches whenever possible though.

I was running around with a helmet cam mounted on my ball cap brim, if that rings any bells.

Actually I was a glock guy before I was a 1911 guy, but once I got the 1911 bug that was it. Although if concealed carry was an option up here it would be a G19 for sure.

I can think of one.
I'd put an ambi safety on it as I like to put it on safe with my trigger finger, but that's just my personal preference.

Just don't get DQd! D'oh! This is mine now P!

Ambi will only get you dq'ed. It is a negative not a positive. You can argue for Noveske short throw... but otherwise that gun is maxed out for 3g. There is no improvement option.

Why DQ?

That's a pretty absolute statement.
Didn't realize you were the authority on what is best for 3 gun.
I apologize for even speaking.

With the vast selection barrel profiles, stocks, brakes and hand guard designs and construction materials, you have obviously found the ultimate combination.

I hope to be at a match with you someday soon, so that I may learn and correct my ways.

Take it easy fellas!

Woah there. Lets all be happy for Cbabes great 3gun rifle.

Prove to me the ambi is better.

I was just razzing him because he got DQd for going for the mag release and hitting his trigger. I figured the same can happen if quickly dumping the AR for a transition while going for the safety with the right index finger. Anyway I don't want the ambi!
