Thinking about it. Not sure. Busy weekend.

Probably a Friday decision.

For someone who as never attended one of these events before, what all do I need to know?

It looks like I am a go for pop up.

Bianchi, have some configuration of magazines or multiple guns that will allow 40 shots in succession. 40 hits is a perfect score. It's good fun.

It's also good to be early because the line to register can sometimes be rather long.

You drive all the way north in CP to where the flagpoles are then turn right toward the parking lot. They have hot coffee and chili in the concession stand.

If you have six boxes of ammo, eighty bucks will get you six stages, or "relays". If you're going out there you might as well shoot!

Shot 6 relays today, and I had an absolute fun time. The whole event was run very well. Relays were short, sweet, and to the point. Commands were clear, concise, and to the point.

On my first relay, I was already nervous and excited. The heart was pounding, adrenaline was flowing, and it took FOREVER for the first target to show up. I was standing there, gun in low ready position, painfully aware of every heartbeat, every breath, every sound. But once that first target popped up: BOOM! Everything fell into place. I haven't that much fun shooting in a very, very long time.

Scores dropped from low to mid 30s last time out,.. to mid to upper 20s .Time to start shooting more and get back on track for next year.

It did not look good in the morning i shot in relay 1 and it was raining had to deal with slippery mags and rain on glasses.

After the first relay it cleared up quickly and the weather was not an issue.

i had a great time shooting with mp bill and also was happy to see mux and bianchi made it out there.

First time at the pop-up shoot. Had a great time except for the weather. Found out that when my adrenaline is pumping that I can't shoot worth a sh%&t. 2nd round was a bit more relaxed. Looking forward to the next one where I hope to break into the 30's. Note to self; "have more mags available"

Yup. I have 4 glock 17 mags, and there were a few rounds where I was thinking "am I going to run out of ammo"?
