Just wondering if there are any 3 gun shooters here and if so what are you using for your guns?

What's the farthest distance you guys shoot?

Not yet, but looking into it. There's a SASS chapter close to me.

You are referring to the newer 3 gun using rifle, pistol, and shotgun?

I used to shoot NRA 3 gun of the type shot at Camp Perry, OH. All pistol, a .22 cal, a center fire (normally .45 ACP wadcutter), and .45

I shot 3 gun several times. Have stopped since I went back to school but graduate in January with my bachelors and going to buy more comp guns to get back into it.

I did it once and it was a blast. I have since purchased all the equipment and need to set some time aside to do it.

the administrator of a gun-forum asking what 3 gun is... :rolleyes: :p

basically its a shooting competition involving all three types of firearm (pistol, rifle, and shotgun)
SASS does it with old west style firearm,
tactical uses military style firearms.

some use 1 type of firearm only in a stage, some use multiples types (say 10 plates with a pistol, a couple poppers with flyers for the shotgun, followed with some long range rifle shots.

Admin it is basicly an USPSA pistol match but you use a modern rifle, hi round shotgun and a hi round pistol.

Some sites to check out are www.nnrpa.org (my favorite match) www.smm3gun.com, www.mgmtargets.com, www.madtrigger.com, www.randrracing.com. Do a google search on Fort Benning 3 gun, Rocky Mountain 3 gun, California 3 gun series. www.brianenos.com All these site will give you a good idea of what's going on. Mad trigger is lots of videos.

There are many other big 3 gun matches around the country, check them out.

I hope this helps let us know what you think.
