Bitterroot Blasters

Hey all, Just a big THANK YOU !!!! We were glad to see you all on the range yesterday. We had our best turnout EVER, 58 shooters !!!!! We had some new shooters, some new faces !!! AND we had 5 Ladys !!!! We hope to continue to grow, and keep doing what were doing !!!

The scores are up on the www.bitterrootblasters.org webiste. Please check them out and let me know if there are any mistakes so we can get them corrected.

Our next match is MAY 27th, we sure hope to see all of you there ! and please, bring someone to the range !! Wether its a new shooter, or just a spectator. I hear time and time again by new people ” I didnt know anything like this even existed” or ” ive seen this on TV, but I didnt know there were local clubs that put it on”

The only way were going to grow is by spreading the word!

THANKS AGAIN EVERYONE !!!!!!!

Tim please pass on to your shooting list. The club in Salmon Idaho is going to try several different types of shooting matches from cowboy to precision rifle this year. July 28th will be a 4 stage multigun match. I am the multigun match director.

Round totals are 54 Rifle, 52 Pistol, 45 Birdshot, 2 Slugs. Some of the targets will be pistol or shotgun. Stages will have lots of reactive targets (because I like them) including spinners. The longest rifle shots would be about 270 yards. All that stated I would suggest lots of extra ammo.

I haven’t read the different multigun rule books yet, so not sure which we will follow.

Hey all, many have asked and wondered when stages would be up and whats the word for the upcoming year. Well here it is ! Were up and running and will be putting on 5 matches this year. April – August. The dates are up on the website ( www.bitterrootblasters.org ) under the MATCH INFORMATION tab. We have the classifiers for each match listed. The remaining 4 stages for each will be posted prior to the match. As for the APRIL 22 Match, just as last year, we will be trying to put on the AREA 1 stages, for those going down to PREP. So that we are not using the SAME stages as Bozeman/GAS, we will be picking different stages than they have this weekend. As i get the NEW stages from area 1, they will be posted to our site ! So check back frequently for stages 3, 4, and 5 to be posted (1 and 2 are already up). We cant wait to see you all ! Lets keep the momentum going and break last years attendance numbers !!!! See you at the range !

Hey all, its time to finalize the SIRT ORDER with Mike Hughes. He has just informed me of the NEW model hes putting out to be more cost effective. The new model is called a “performer” the only different over the SIRT model, is that the SIRT has a metal slide to fully meet the exact weight of a Glock 17/22. The PERFORMER model has a plastic slide and is 4 oz lighter than the SIRT / true GLOCK. Otherwise, ALL the same features as the PRO and the STANDARD model. Listed below are the finalized prices that ive been offered as a “friends of mike discount”.

SIRT PRO – retail 440, Friends of mike price 300

SIRT standard – retail 320, Friends of mike price 200

PERFORMER PRO – no retail, Friends of mike price 240

PERFORMER standard – 220 retail, Friends of mike price 150

EXTRA magazines – 14 each as long as the group orders 10 or more, which im sure we will

SIRT ar-15 GREEN bolt – retail 250, Friends of mike price 200

SIRT ar-15 RED bolt – retail 150, Friends of mike price 120

If you are interested or have any questions please email me. for those of you that have already told me you want in, please email me back so we can set up funding and i can get the order placed! Please feel free to forward this email to any other shooters that might be interested, Club presidents can forward this to their member list. THANKS !!!!

Hey all !! From time to time I get into what some call “good deals”. I often hear from other shooters like myself that they would be interested in the same deal I found. Im working one of those now and wanted to gauge the interest to see if anyone else wants in on it. Many of you are familiar with “Mike Hughes / Top Shot season 3″. What some of you might NOT know is Mike is a fellow USPSA shooter right here in Area 1. I met mike and have tried staying in touch since 2007. SINCE then he has started his own Training company that has grown tremendously – NLT, or “Next Level Training”. One of the tools that he has designed and manufactured is the SIRT gun. A quick description is basically a laser gun. its a dryfire training tool for practicing with no reoccuring cost, similar to something like an airsoft gun, without having to buy pellets or refill gas. I had a chance to play with one of these 2 years ago at area 1 in idaho. Since then he has come up with a newer version, and ALSO an AR15 replacement BOLT version, that you drop right into your existing AR15.

Anyways, Before ordering MY SIRT gun off his webiste, I contacted Mike about a discounted price. He went above and beyond what I exptected and shot me some numbers. I do not want to advertise those numbers in THIS email so we do not undercut any of his distributors. If you are interested please respond to me and i can fill you in individually. I simply stated that we were a USPSA club, AND that we might be ordering more than just 1. ANY of you that might be interested in ANY of these, check out some of the links below to see the products, and some videos of some TOP NOTCH “GM” shooters who train with them, how they work, and what you can use with them.

As all of you know me and my occasional “deals” you know that i am not a sales person for Mike, im not making a penny of this, meerly just trying to EXTEND the deal he has give to me, to all of YOU !! Club presidents plese feel free to forward this to your members.

Check out the NLT website, under the PRODUCTS tab is a list of the SIRT pistols, and the SIRT bolts for AR15.

Some gear one of hte shooters is trying to sell: Hey Tim,

I recently acquired a 4 set of Double Alpha mag pouches when I was doing some trading. I’m already set up on mag pouches, and have no need for them. Thought you might know somebody that would be interested – they’re in great condition. I looked up what they go for price-wise, and it looks like $120 for a 3-pack, or $40/each. So, I’d be happy to save somebody a little cash and sell all 4 for the same price.

Here’s the site: http://www.doublealpha.biz/ipsc-holsters-rigs/pouches/combo-3-x-daa-competition-mag-pouch

I attached a couple photos, but let me be clear that the belt is NOT for sale. Just made for a nice display of the pouches.

Feel free to bounce this to anybody you think might be interested.

Thanks,

Can you forward to your email list. Described as follows:

Kimber Team Usa bought new in 2006 and completley done from new By Evolution Gun Works in 2006 and used it to shoot one local match and then 2007 Nationals. About 1000 rounds on it, not a scratch, except for the mag well, and has never jammed. Had it built to shoot limited 10 then found out you can run a limited gun with 10 rounds so this has been sitting in my safe for 4 years looking pretty. Has matched sear and hammer, egw match barrel, extended mag button and magwell with dawons fiber front. Over $2300 in it and am asking $1500 firm with 4 wilson 10 round mags. The base gun sells new for $1300. All hand fitted by EGW. Again, runs and looks awesome but I no longer have a need for it. If it will help sell it I will throw in an autograph and I’ll say I need to funds for a kidney transplant.

For anyone who handnt already recieved this. Sorry its a few days late. -tim FW:

Shooters,

See attached from Nate.

Thanks again Nate for putting these together!
