You're not allowed to use reloaded ammunition. In fact, they have a list of acceptable ammunition brands.apostate wrote:Things may be different now but I shot it with a DAO SP101 and the guy next to me had a SA Blackhawk. Neither of us had any difficulty making accurate timed shots, although his reloads were a mite slow.
Anyone here scheduled for the Jan 2-6 Instructors Class?

I think the word "reloads" was intended as a verb, and not a noun.sjfcontrol wrote:You're not allowed to use reloaded ammunition.

There's never a problem until there's a problem. Then, there's a problem.

I assume concealed carry is allowed at the classes?

It is. Keep it concealed.
We had some theft issues so carry stayed on the belt & the range guns stayed in a bag or backpack for most of us.

Carry 24-7 or guess right.

Revolver shots can be SA or DA.sjfcontrol wrote:No -- at least not when I took it. They try to convince you to do it that way, but it isn't specified one way or the other.Roccodawg wrote:I think I also read somewhere that revolver shots have to be DA. Is that right?
