Earlier this month, we went shooting at Mica, WA. You can tell we are someplace special by the trees. The things just grow out of the ground up there.
You don't need special hot-shot guns to play USPSA/IPSC. Above is a stock Glock and below is a stock HK. Pay no attention to the Kimber hat. I don't know about you, but I think shooting in a leather jacket is hot.
The gun below is a mostly-stock HK, but it's pretty special out of the box. Tom was playing hurt--- besides his house-moving elbow he also had a twisted ankle from a particularly intense gun-shopping session.
I guess it's good that I always look the same in pictures of me shooting.
My hat matches my gun.I was having trouble with my "performance" springs at this match, so now my Glock is closer to stock on the inside. The only special spring is stronger than original---now. I'm a pretty slow shooter to begin with but waiting for the trigger to reset too... arggggh.
Taking aim at a pretty small target area, pretty far away... pretty aimer too.The Mica match was unusual because all the courses were so-called Classifiers, i.e. standardized over the whole country. The resulting score tells you how you are doing relative to every other US shooter. Some shooters shot it in more than one class...so we had Production Bob and Limited Bob on our squad. I should probably have done that too with an Open gun, but there's always next time.

Hey, my hat matches too! Color doesn't, but logo does... Black hats are just too hot :)
If I were a cleaner neater person, I could wear light colored hats too!
Someday Mica will be hot enough that a black hat won't be the best idea, but not two weeks ago, with snow still on the hill tops around us.
