You don't need have all the guns to check it out, in fact it is a good idea to go and try out a few different options to see what fit's your style. Go forth and shoot, you-all.OldRetiredDudehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10352066065043323477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924773307171301256.post-15182007076342299322012-01-25T01:07:34.475-05:002012-01-25T01:07:34.475-05:00You might have trouble with the beard part of bein...You might have trouble with the beard part of being a gunfighter re-enactor too ;).<br /><br />- Badtux the Bemused PenguinBadTuxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01345749557330760251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924773307171301256.post-86934897973336268202012-01-24T13:06:18.981-05:002012-01-24T13:06:18.981-05:00The prices on the lever-guns is a bit much for my ...The prices on the lever-guns is a bit much for my blood, at least these days. And I'm not so much interested in beating myself up with a 12-bore, do they allow 20s? <br /><br />I do have the revolvers, though.

We dress up and shoot lead bullets at metal targets and knockdowns against a clock, 5 second penalties for missed targets, 10 sec. for procedure and safety violations. The biggest problem is that you tend to collect a lot of guns! My gun safe is full now, and I am lobbying for a new one for cowboy guns! If you ever get a chance go to a match and try it out, the people who shoot SASS are always happy to meet new folks and love to show off and let people shoot their guns! Good Fun!OldRetiredDudehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10352066065043323477noreply@blogger.com
