Hey everyone
I don't want to seem like I'm an egomaniac or anything, but I just wanted to announce this past weekends events for the National Guard competition.
We had our ... Xth annual (cant remember 62nd or something) Delaware Rifle and Pistol Competition at the River Road Armory, right next to Ommelanden and across from the Soccer Complex. It was a Army and Air invitational match for issue rifle and pistol (M16 and Beretta M9).
Our unit, 166th ALW had 2 teams, 4 per team. We shot individual and team competition.
Our 'A' team got 2nd place with a score of 403 out of a maximum of 720. (The first place team got a 417.) That was my boss's team. My team scored a 324. Mind you, these are very low scores. Many of the best state shooters were not there this year.
Anyway, the individual competition consisted of standing, kneeling, and barricade supported slow fire, and the Excellence in Competition matches. The EIC is standing, rapid-fire, multiple target engagement. Out of our shooters we had only one in the top ten.
ME!!!!! I got first place with a score of 434 points out of a maximum of 540. The next shooter was a 407. I am this year's Delaware Grand Master Pistol Champion for the National Guard. I should be getting invited to the Regional Competition at Ft Indiantown Gap, PA.
My ultimate goal is to make the All Guard team. Anyway, to award myself for my good shootyness, I bought myself a Beretta 92FS. I have to get a metal spring rod for it and then it'll be almost identical to the one I use for competition. When I get pics of the trophies I will post them. This will also be updated with other stuff as the year progresses.
Will upload pic as soon as I figure out how.
