Houston Chronicle editorial section

Have you seen today's Houston Chronicle? 3 full pages of anti-gun bull! We need to start a letter writing campaign! I used to have letters published pretty regular but it seems in the last year the paper has swung so far left they only publish liberal bull. One out of ten is a conservative opinion. ...

Lone Star IDPA Championship match

Hats off to Brian and the Cross Timbers folks for a good match this weekend. Great SOs and fair calls. (Unlike the State Match) The stages were challenging for sure. I had two melt-downs so my scores sucked but it was great over all. Could have been warmer!

Col. Phil did a class for a group of us at PSC last year. Great man and great instructor. You'll learn lots from him!

Re: Frankford Arsenal Vibraprime - 50% off

I have one and when I got it, I couldn't get the small primer tube to snap into the bottom of the tray. Of course being a gorilla I broke one of the ears off the tube . I emailed Frankford Arsenal and they sent me a whole new unit, no charge. Talk about great customer service! The second one works g...

Don't judge IDPA by this match. They're fun, good practice and for the most part, without politics.

Re: Texas State IDPA match

When the MD is walking around "cocked and locked" on a cold range and some "SO's" are wearing their Police badges, you know you have walked off the deep end. :rules: :iagree: what he said! And when it takes the SO 10 minutes to explain how he's going to call your cover PEs and t...

Re: Texas State IDPA match

First of all I agree, the rules are ahem, ridiculous in some respects. But, do the rules say "cover applies plus or minus 1 inch"? I also despise the "flinch" rule (which we called on our very own CSO/Club President on one of the stages) - 3 Sec PE. I also think the rule on not ...

Re: Texas State IDPA match

I shot it. Shot well, but wished I had passed on this one. Cover calls were stupid tight. I wound up with 6PE's, exactly double the number of PE's I incurred during the last 7 sanctioned matches combined. Well, you could think that - but as an SO on Stage 5, I can tell you we were calling cover pro...

Re: IDPA Classifier?

There's not going to be a match at PSC in May because it's the same day as the state match in Cresson. But there will be one in June! :hurry:

Re: IDPA SO Recertification

Anybody know when a NEW SO Certification class will be offered in the Houston area? I've asked several times and was told no classes until the new rules came out.
