Everything Back to Normal

...plates falling, no penalties, no longer moving like enervated turtle...hopefully, normalicy will continue through tomorrow's stages.

BTW, my Sweetie had a revolver jam that proves, once again, that shooting is a pure chaos system...here first shot hits a plate and through some bizarre karmic coincidence a piece of bullet splatter dropped INTO her gun, neatly wedging itself between the transfer bar and the frame. Figure the odds on that happening! She ran through the cylinder 3 times, then sat the gun down on the table, assuming that she'd somehow managed to load only one round. Seeing the gun was fully loaded, she picked it back up and all 4 rounds went off. We got the gun to the safe area, and a big chunk of flattened bullet fell out...weird...

BTW, got notified that my name is up for one of Jim Bunting's aluminum bull pup chassis fo the 10/22. Ought to be darn cool!

So much for the fallacy of wheel guns never muck-up and always go bang.We must never forget that even if God himself made the gun Murphy and his laws sometimes trump all things at the least convenient time .

"Hearing protection is highly recommended and eye protection is mandatory..." SASS Shooters Handbook.

You'll find that SASS is HIGHLY safety conscious. As well as being a bootfull of fun.

Wish I was a Winter Range with Michael, Marshal, etc...

RE: the Bunting stock
I had one of the original prototypes and while it shot well... It was heavy and too boxy of a stock system. Haven't had a chance to shoot the latest iteration. That said, I feel Jim Bunting has done the best job of solving the issues with a trigger linkage on bullpups. The trigger was not horrible. A real accomplishment for a bullpup conversion!
