Today on the Tactical Training Group e-mail list an impromptu practical rifle match was announced. The details of the match have not been released. As we know more about the match we will post updates.
This is what we know so far:
Sunday, September 28, 2008 – SKS/AK-47 Match
The message on the board from the Match Director: Congratulations from BGM Tactical Weapons Team on the 1st year B-day Party:
Shooters,
I will not be able to put on a match this Saturday or Sunday. I have a set of grand twins with a one year old birthday party Saturday. Arab club is having a mass clean-up on Sunday. So, how about we have a match on Sunday the 28th of September. A match on Saturday will mess with the IDPA HGC match. Don’t want to do that. Since this will be on an odd day, how about we have an odd match. Lets drag out and dust off those AK47′s and SKS’s. Take them to the Arab range a shoot until the barrels melt off. One stage will require you to shoot from the hip just like you see on Fox News. While you are running… If you don’t have a gun to shoot, come anyway and bring some 7.62×39 or 5.45×39 ammo. Bring at least 100 rounds. Two classes to shoot in. Mags and stripper clips.. Should be lots of fun. We will start around 9:00 am. Set up at 8:oo. $15.00 to shoot. $20.00 to watch us make fools of ourselves.
See you then,
Scott
After re-reading the match description it seems that this is just going to be some organized fun for bragging rights of who is a better shooter. Plus it is reason enough to dust of the ol’ SKS you bough 15 years ago for $50 and test out some of the 30,000 rounds of the Norinco you’ve had in storage for 20 years. It sounds like it could be a loosely run stage setup where we can go out meet the North Alabama shooters and make friends. You can count me in. What about you? I plan to reach out and let them know how many people we are going to bring up with us. I have three so far. Let me know asap.
Saturday the BGM competed at the Steel City Shooting Sports Association quarterly tactical rifle match. We had several new and first time shooters join us for the Steel City Match. A special thank you for the Match Statisticians for getting the results out over the holiday weekend.
Here are the results for the BGM. Since I have never asked I am giving everyone a nick name. *Note: Nicknames have been updated 9/18

Don’t forget… This Saturday, August 30, 2008, at Steel City Shooting Sports Association. You should plan to be at the match early as the safety meeting and registration is at 8:00 and shoot begins at 9:00. If you want to sign up to shoot with the BGM make sure you get your name to us so that we can block register so that we can all be in the same squad. We look to have a full squad this weekend.
