2 Gun at the Dry Hole - $1000 to win - April 26, Alex, OK

henschman · Mar 12, 2014

From Alex Arms and Instruction's website:

Alex Arms and Instruction is proud to announce two exciting events in April. We will be having a Multi-gun competition on Saturday April 26, 2014. 2-Gun at the Dry Hole is a Pistol and Carbine Steel match â€" $1000 to win. Entry fee is only $65 and includes lunch. We will be having a special stage where competitors will use a Barrett 99A1 .50BMG! To register click here.
On Sunday April 27 we will be offering our Tactical Carbine course. Introduction to Tactical Carbine will cover the basics of how to get the most out of your AR weapons platform. To register for this course click here.
We are offing a special $25 discount if you sign up for both the competition and the course.

I shot and helped RO for the last 2-gun Dale/AAI had back in October, and it was a lot of fun.

I have also attended his USRA intro to defensive handgun course, which was outstanding... it synthesized a lot of the best practices taught by the best in the field into a great one-day course. If the tactical carbine course is anything like it, it is a course that is not to be missed. The price is very reasonable, too... especially if you sign up for the package deal for both the 2-gun match and the class. See you there!

Is this a Precision rifle type 2-gun or an action shooting type 2-gun match?

WillR · Mar 12, 2014

Man. The fourth sat is 3-gun at OKCGC. That's going to split up the participation base.

Excuse my ignorance but I ha to google Alex ok is this near chickasha if so I'm off work and will be there

That $1,000 win is based off 65 participant's. Last year only 18 showed up so that $1,000 dropped drastically.

As necessary so the club/director doesn't incur a loss by fixing a set win.
Good info Matt.

It is action shooting... other than the Barrett M99 stage I presume!

This is true, we only had 18 participants for our first ever event.

The $1,000 payout is contingent on 50 participants.

This event will be publicized much more than the last event so we are hoping to be able to pay out the full amount.

We are adding more steel - including poppers, pop-ups and a spinner.

As Daniel stated, except for the .50 BMG stage it will be action shooting.

Looks like the okcgc 3-gun match is cancelled that day due to the cowboys annual land run match. Yee-Haw.
I may come play.

Yippee Kiyaaa...
Near Chickishaw is closer than T-town I may be in...don't worry the prize money is safe.

jtischauser · Mar 26, 2014

I might be down for some of this action!

At there Zombie match in the fall Matt's adjustable gas failed him on an easy stage allowing me to take $300 home last year, I think Matt got a recycled bowling trophey & $75.
I am out of town on the 26th and can't make this match

Matt1911 · Mar 27, 2014

Whatever dude. It was a new bowling trophy, and that's why I don't use adjustable gas blocks anymore.

I love it when people blame adjustable gas blocks for their ignorance. Makes my job easier!

That's just wrong lol

Rigsby can dish it out So I know he can handle it! :girlwacko: :scout: :rtfm: :jester: :russian:

Matt1911 · Mar 27, 2014

Totally was the gas block. After that stage I opened it up more and it ran perfect.

I'll admit it's partly my fault too though. It was cold as elephant dung that day and I never tested my gas block in cold weather before that.
I should've taken J-Tizzles advice and thrown my upper in the fridge for awhile to test it.
