Believe it or not they actually came like that...and yes I paid for them for some reason.de, you need new shoes or another roll of duct tape.
Shot ok but had some serious screw ups which really hurt my overall score.
I got 233 and change.
Hey, I had to do it. Now... if only meeting them somehow made us better shooters
I had a great time today. Great stages and a great squad. Hope you had fun too.

Absolutely. 210 I think.Did the bro get you???
Awesome pics too guys!
I ended up with some serious screw-ups, too. The second-to-last last round of the last stage failed to return to battery, and I ended up down ten for an easy target at 2 yards.
245 and change. That malfunction and a few no-shoots with holes in them probably blew my chance at a SS-EX bump.
I had a jam on the stage where you hold the bag in your weak hand. Cost me about 15 seconds to fix in the dark.
No flashlight? I had my eyes closed for a few minutes before I shot and had no trouble, but pretty much everyone else in my squad used a light.
After my malfunction on another flashlight-optional stage, the SO told me someone had spent 20+ seconds trying to rack a slide after a failed reload, but couldn't figure out how to grasp it with a handheld light. That's got to hurt.
I got a procedural for my gun running dry but not going to slidelock and doing a reload.
I had a similar thing happen to me some years back. I ran my gun dry, but it didn't lock back and I had lost count so I didn't realize the gun was dry. I left cover to approach the next set of targets. I pulled the trigger -- click. I did a tap, rack, the slide locked opened, so I reloaded and continued. The SO gave me a procedural for leaving cover with an unloaded gun. I argued, but was unsuccessful.I got a procedural on another stage for my gun running dry but not going to slidelock and doing a reload.

I also thought it was funny how bad an advertisement the pick-up stage was. Going into it, a few people were planning to buy the gun in question after the match, but after having people ride the odd cylinder release so it wouldn't fire, pop the cylinder out while shooting, short-stroke the thing like crazy, and throw rounds everywhere when using the sights, I don't think anyone that shoots the match will be buying one soon.

What was the gun in the pick-up stage?
It was the bodyguard.
I short stroked it, so did my brother.

Wow! You're right. Why in the hell would they do that?The pics look like the cylinder spins the opposite of other S&W revos- is that correct??

No idea, but I'm not sure it really matters. They don't have you reload it or anything.
The main trick was to come all the way off the trigger, and not to take a high hold on the gun (which is where the cylinder release is). Other than that, it's not any different than a J-Frame.
