jbirds, you hear that? Are you in town next Wednesday?
Is it possible to rack up a negative point total in Limited Vickers? I assume it is, and I may be the test case...

Ya know Skip......we are coming back from Oklahoma on Wednesday and it might get miraculously timed to hit Conroe and I-45 South at match time. BUG match=less stuff I need to pack. I can shoot with what I have on when I get there. I will do my best to make it.

Dag nabbit. Got paged from work and was tied up until about 30 minutes ago. As Steve said, perfect weather, the best Wednesday traffic we'll get, and the pizza sounded really really good after ham leftovers for a couple of days. I even made a point to practice a bit with my BUG at the range Saturday...and knew that anything over seven yards was going to be challenging, to say the least.
One of these days...

You guys missed an excellent match! I had a great time on very little sleep! As always, wonderful group of people having SAFE fun while learning that those BUGS don't always work the way we want them to and definitely unlike their full size companions.
Lesson learned: Practice reloading under pressure with small Glock...that mag release is not in the same place! Nor do the smaller mags work when inserted sideways, upside down, or backwards! I am not naming any names, but someone actually started humming the jeopardy tune in my ear while trying to pull off this reload on my knees.
It would be worth driving across three states to shoot with this group....really great folks.
LT disclaimer: My Glock functioned flawlessly except for what the goofball behind it causing a nasty reload.
