This is great bunch of guys. Most of us don't take it very serious (And those that do, we laugh at them. Hear that Dan). Some of us are just there for grins and giggles. You won't have a hard time picking our group out. We all laugh at each other all the time. That is what makes it great. No one is laughing at you, they are laughing with you. Heck last time I shot the star at the USPSA shoot, I had to reload twice before I hit anything (That is almost 30 rounds that I fired before hitting finishing the stage). I was laughing out loud at myself. We still joke around about that one.
I shoot a subcompact 9mm XD in a full concealment holster cause that is what I carry all the time. I'm not out to set records. I'm out to shoot and have a good time, and hopefully improve my chances of coming out alive if the time ever comes that I really do need to use a firearm to defend myself.
But until then. I'll keep laughing at myself and everyone else as we all have a really good time trying to figure out what the heck we did wrong that time. Bring your gear and be ready to shoot. It is way to much fun to stand around and watch.
They shoot USPSA on the first Sat of the month and IDPA on the third Sat. Both are run by really good guys who will work with you to get you started. Both are a lot of fun. I go to both of them as often as possible. Look for a GREEN PAFOA hat. I try to wear it every time I go. I'll be the guy dumping around 30 rounds into the star....

Mtbkski,
Thank you for such a wonderful invitation! I appreciate your kind words, and you would fit in just fine anytime dad & I go to the pistol range. We quit using paper targets years ago. Too much stress.
Now we just shoot at the steel targets and laugh a lot. The entire reason we shoot is to have fun, and laughing is a large part of the fun!
I may bring some gear. I'll be the short fat guy who can not hit anything. Yep, that'll be me.
Allen
P.S. I do not wear hats. So just look for someone looking very confused and lost. That too will be me.
Thanks again for bringing it down to just having fun. That is something I understand!
