Most bodacious and righteous dude! (Air guitar)
There's still a few of Wile. E Coyote's ideas that I haven't tried yet.

Oh yeah, I actually wasn't thinking bout that. Just thought it was unusual seeing some Hollywood guy doing 3 gun. Seems to be making the rounds on this side of the pond.

Isn't that him training for a movie? Nothing to do with his moral persuasion...

Apparently he's seen pretty frequently at ranges though so he could genuinely enjoy the sport, he has a talent for it clearly.

On a mostly unrelated note I have a lot of respect for him, he's been through some s**t in his life and is a genuinely nice guy from what I've heard.

OK, on second thought, why can't you do 3 gun? Is it because of semi auto? You don't have to do it semi auto. I believe you have to shoot handguns at clubs and ranges, but can't they set up something like this?

One last question. In the US most ranges (not clubs) are run by firearms dealers that can own pretty much anything they want and rent it out. I'm assuming your firearms dealers could rent you handguns (just to make it easier) and even semis. But if not, you could still set this up for people that own handguns.

Practical [sic] shooting sports promote shooting to people that don't hunt and also promote the idea of self defense. Two things we could use more of in Oz.

The closest we come to 3 gun would be IPSC and the powers that be pretty much hate it. There's a lot of fuss made about moving around with a loaded firearm. There's also IPSC rifle, again similar to 3 gun, but that's illegal in my state.

To give you an idea of how ridiculous some of our rules are going, at my range you can have your pistol in a holster while you're not shooting but it has to be unloaded. There is a new rule that's being enforced that the holster has to have a certain angle of cant so that if there's an accidental discharge it travels in a safe direction, you know the one from your unloaded gun.

The problem is the majority of shooters are so scared to rock the boat in case what little freedom we have gets taken away that they see things like IPSC and think why would you stir up the anti gunners. I heard the same thing said about the Adler shotgun even though we've had lever action shotguns for years.

We're so segregated it becomes the classic story of first they came for the semi autos and I didn't complain because I didn't shoot a semi auto, then they came for the pistols...

Western Action gents, Single Action pistols, Lever action Rifle and a SXS shotgun all combined in the one discipline :) Haven't tried it as yet cause I'm waiting on High Caliber permit so I can buy a pair of Colt 45's :)

But the clothes :lol: I'd do it for some fun but I wouldn't want to get into the period clothes and going by an alias.

On a side note I reckon they should let us do IPSC in full tactical gear since the cowboy action guys get to dress up

Dressed head to toe in leather with guns, 2 loves combined for some I'd say :)

I'd like to see some larger outdoor IPSC ranges with a better representation of an urban layout. Some fixed targets, popup targets at various ranges and sizes would be very cool. The problem with this sort of range is being able to build it within a reasonable distance of your customer base. I could possiblty build one on my block providing I could get the relevant approvals but who wants to travel 6.5 hrs to use it and there's not enough locals to make it work.
