First ENPS Multigun Match of the Year: March 16th!
JTH:
First ENPS Multigun match of the year is coming up in a little less than two weeks! (And yes, that is hopefully enough time for the weather to get a LOT better.)
Four stages, one of which will be on the 100-yard range. (Be warned---the second MG match of the year, in April, will be using the 300m range, so know your dope from 5 yards out to 300m by April!)
As always, setup starts at 7:15am, and we could use all the help we can get. Registration CLOSES at 8:40am, which means that if you plan on shooting, get there much earlier in case there is a line. (And if you are smart, you'll pre-register online at https://clubs.practiscore.com/enps-march-multigun-match/register ---remember, when you pre-register you still need to check in and pay for the match prior to registration being closed, it'll just be VERY quick when you do so.)
Remember---if you have squad requests, the smartest thing you can do is register online, then squad yourself appropriately. If you don't do that, you'd better register at the match early otherwise it may not be possible. (Squadding also depends on the number of certified ROs we have at the match. If you and your 12 friends all like to shoot together, 3-4 of you should probably take the RO class otherwise it just can't happen. :) )
Safety briefing/new shooter meeting at 8:40am, shooter's meeting at 9am, and shooting starts right afterward.
Cost $15.
As always, bring guns and plenty of ammo, be safe, and you'll have a ton of fun. :D

Sparky0068 and I are all signed up.
Put a brake on my 11.5" SBR. It's REALLY loud. I could shoot my dedicated 3-gun rifle, but why when I can be obnoxious?

I want to come and shot so bad but I can't this weekend... :( I need to get all my gear made up so I can maybe try for the april match... But at 300m I am going to need to ditch the cheap red dot and get a scope... I really want a PA 1x6 but not instock... oh well best luck and safe to all the shooters!
landon410:
do they ever have like an intro to, practice, or just come and we'll teach you how all this stuff works?
I think it would be fun but would hate to be that guy that has no idea whats going on and might upset someone else, or learn halfway through that my equipment needs to be changed etc.

I don't think they have ever had an intro class, but everyone has to start somewhere. At the beginning of the match they have a meeting for new shooters to go over the safety rules, and I would let the RO know you're a new shooter when it's your turn. Just focus on safety, not speed, and you'll be fine.
IMO long as you have these things that's all you really need to get started. No sense in buying much gear until you've shot a couple matches so you can figure out what you want.
Rifle with iron sights, red dot, or scope that's been zeroed
Handgun
Shotgun
Holster that will hold your handgun securely
4 or so mags each for rifle & pistol (you can just stick them in your back pockets for now if you don't have mag pouches)
A way to carry shotgun shells (a trap pouch works)
