Gunfighter Gauntlet Competition Announcement

Описание: https://gauntletmatches.com/gunfighte...

Hi, Steve and Caleb from Brownells here, and we've got an exciting announcement for you today. Caleb, take it away.

Yes, Steve, we do. At the end of August, we're going to be hosting a competition called Gunfighter Gauntlet at our range here in Searsboro, Iowa, at the Big Spring Shooting Complex. It's pretty much open to everyone. This is a competition for a lot of different types of shooters.

It's a two-gun competition, rifle and pistol. Rifles have to be in rifle calibers, pistols have to be in traditional pistol calibers like 9mm, .40, .45, you know, whatever. There are different divisions. The competition is physical but nothing super over-the-top. However, the shooting will be a bit challenging. New shooters will be able to compete just fine, and that's kind of what it was designed for.

The range officers and the guys putting it on are super cool, very welcoming, and willing to work with new shooters. All the range officers are, so don't be timid about joining because you're a new shooter. That's perfectly okay. Safety first, of course. Be safety-minded, and let's kind of jump into the divisions.

First division being Gunfighter, this is the one that's more for everybody, especially the new shooter. Your rifle can be pretty much, I would say, go with an AR-15, and you can't have a bipod in this division, and you can only have one optic. But a red dot and magnifier count as one optic, not two.

For handguns in the same division, Gunfighter, it's going to be more of your traditional basic handgun. The magazine capacity doesn't really matter as long as it's a flush fit, you can't have a muzzle device on there, and you can have one optic on your handgun.

Now, moving on to the other division, my favorite, Armored Core. Oh boy, there are less restrictions on the firearms, but you've got to wear armor. You don't have to wear a helmet, but you do need a plate carrier. That's going to be for the more prepared gun owner. For that, traditional rifle caliber, a lot fewer restrictions pretty much everywhere else. However, you have to keep that equipment on throughout all of it. You can't pull stuff off at different stages.

Let's talk about Irons Only, Steve. Irons only, as for more of your retro guys out there, okay, iron sights only. And then, there's "They don't make them like they used to," for anything 1946 and prior. It can be replicas, but it has to be like it would have come from the factory.

Prizes will be a random draw. Physical trophies will go to the best competitors, but the actual prize table itself, a random draw. The entrance fee is only $200, which is extremely affordable for similar competitions. The guys putting this on wanted to keep it affordable for everybody.

And when is this again? End of August. We'll link stuff down below for you to do some more research on it. We're actually going to set up a course and run it on camera, and we'll post that video in the near future just so you can kind of see what to expect.

Be there or be square. Just be there. Alright, that's it. Thanks for watching, and stay tuned for more info on the Gunfighter Gauntlet.
