It usually falls on my daughter's birthday-weekend. (Aug 12) So maybe another time!

Is there going to be a cowboy match on Sat., like last year, Sam?

[Sam Perfye]

Quickfire, yes NCOWS match on Sat. Dusty is running it and his matches are always interesting. See you in a couple weeks. Al

What a beautiful day for the match. It's too bad that I could not make it. 

Did a Krag dominate this year?

[Dusty Tagalon]

Krags didn't rule, there were 2, 2 Spencers, 2 Springfield 1873s, 2 Mausers, 1 Hotchkiss, 1 Rolling Block, 1 double rile.

Double rifle?!  DOUBLE COOL!  What was it?

[Pitspitr]

Sounds like a pretty good turnout too! I wish I coulda been there. I ended up having to work part of the day Sunday.

The double was a .450-400 NE, pretty much equivalent to a .45-120?  Ken, the owner, shooter, had it loaded down to 45 70 level but it still put new meaning into "knock-down" targets! Thank you to Al, Dusty and Tom for their work! Speaking for Quickfire and myself, we really enjoyed the shoot and the company!

[Niederlander]

Very nice!

[Hans Christian]

I just love the variety of the guns that show up at GAF shoots.

Any memorable pistols this year?

Anything scheduled for 2017?

[Sam Perfye]

Sorry I've taken so long to reply. Had some issues that had to be dealt with. The Iowa muster is scheduled for Oct, 1st at the Colfax range. Same format as the last few years. We're working on a possible long range event on Sept. 30th but that is not a certainty at this time. More details as they unfold. Al.
