Belle and I are leaving tomorrow morning for a shooting competition in Mobile, AL on Saturday. I spent this morning getting the guns ready. A Colt SAA has 10 screws on the exterior of the gun. I found at least one loose screw on each of the guns we're taking. Nothing destroys confidence like having a gun come apart on the firing line. It really throws off your timing.
Now, the guns are clean and tight, the ammo is packed and I'm working the list. Boots, guns chairs. Luggage, update the GPS. The list is fairly long, but we've been doing this for years.
This is a very minor competition, a Jackpot Shoot at a local club. Those are normally the most fun, because there is less competitive stress. Just people having fun. What I enjoy about these local shoots is getting to see folks I don't normally get to see. It's like going to a family reunion with people we actually like.
