The Darksider's Den / Re: What revolvers, rifle and shotgun do you use in matches?

Your answers are inane.
It's not "trivia".. Do you shoot Rugers, Colts, USFAs, Ubertis, whatever? What caliber? I am assuming you shoot a Uberti made '73 in 44 WCF. You've made no reference to what scattergun you shoot.
And, since you don't have wet weather guns I can pretty much guess that you don't shoot loose powder percussion revolvers. Capped and holstered they are fine, before the loading table where they are capped I have tried plastic bag covers with mixed results. The real problem is loading powder under an umbrella or poncho and keeping the cones dry. A lot of clubs won't allow you to retreat to a truck or even a covered pavilion that is not actually on the range line. I don't blame them, it is a range officer's nightmare to have people handling firearms off of the line and behind everyone.
If you don't want to tell us that is fine, you don't have to participate. But, we have no idea what your categories and inventory is. I don't think the gun snatchers are worried about your cowboy guns to the point they will hunt us down for our 19th century "assault weapons".
