Dear Boomer Shooters,
I just watch the entire first two seasons of 3 Gun Nation and am an awesome Call of Duty player. My KIT - I shoot a high point 40 caliber bullseye gun with a custom trigger and a high point rifle carbine tactical long gun. I'm going to head to Walmart later to buy a sweet shotty so my 3 gun dreams can be realized. I really feel I am going to be a force around the three gun circle. I have watched every video on youtube so I consider myself an expert mall ninja. Lastly, I bought a dremmel and a draw file last week and completed a trigger job on my pistol. It only went burst a few times, but I fixed it with duck tape and gorilla glue. I am a very experienced gunsmith. Thanks
On a serious note, I am on a couple other forums and some of my personal favorite members from other forums recommend I check out this forum! So here I am... all your base are belong to us.
I have been shooting rifles and shotguns since I was a little kid. Luckily, I had an awesome father that also shared all his knowledge of reloading and gunsmithing too. Never was really interested in pistols until about a year and half ago when a friend forced me to enter a USPSA match. Learned about getting a passionate arse whooping that day and found my new favorite hobby.
As for 3 gun, I haven't tried it yet. I was always more of a long gun guy, however, USPSA really got me into pistol shooting. I found out about 3 gun shortly after trying USPSA. I knew right then that was the direction I wanted to go in, but I sucked at pistol shooting. So, now that I feel a bit more comfortable with la pistola I plan on cutting my teeth in 3 gun. Got one of my AR's converted over, but still deciding on the shotgun.
Pistol - Limited/IDPA 2011 in .40, figure it will work just fine for 3 gun. Will use my IDPA load for 3 gun. STI standard 2011 frame, Caspian Tri-top Slide, Schuemann Bushing Barrel.
AR - Still a work in progress. Azone AR comp, JP low mass bolt, JP trigger, Syrac gas system, MTAC 1-4 scope, Dueck RT sights, and Moe plus grip.
Shotgun- Still deciding, I have my Turkey Gun, Mossberg pump that is ported which will put me in Open um... No! I also have an over/under and a side by side, which neither are ideal for 3 gun, so... double No! Been wanting a semi-auto shotgun for years, just never got around to it, so now I have to decide. Tried out an M2 competition, Mossberg 930, and an FN SLP. The M2 competition was my favorite but hard for me to justify the extra cash. I liked the 930 and SLP too. Figure I'll do some more reading then maybe post a topic to figure it out.
Look forward to learning and sharing my useless knowledge here.

PS. I talk a lot and type fast :hunter:
