    Check out "Postal Police Competition"....

    ...in the "Target / Competition" section.

    While it looks at first glance to require more complicated equipment than we have: I believe we UBC mates can come up with a simple and fun course of fire, that would require no more in the way of space, guns, or targets than we're already using!

    Hi Jim,
    I'm very interested
    Ive asked for and received the rules and targets.
    Just need to figure out how to get the mechanical stuff together to turn the targets

    How were you thinking of implementing it?

    I'm thinking turning targets = way too complicated for us! More like "count to three slowly as you raise pistol and fire: count to seven slowly as you lower pistol and pause between shots...:... repeat...": as your firing sequence.

    We'd also need to make it closer ranges: 10, 7, 5, or 7, 5, 3 yards as the distances involved.

    The harder we make it, the fewer will participate.

    Mates, I really believe we can do this! Anyone with a repeater air pistol, something to mount a target on a couple feet off the ground, and 10 yards of space, should be able to participate.

    I'm going for it! Tony's interested, and I know Jan will be also. Let's do it!
