Free State Match #1

Be sure to read the main Free State Match page for important information
Save the World
We know there's not much hope for Liberty in Our Lifetime if the planet is overrun by destructive, pestiferous creatures. No, not socialists, statists, and egalitarians, but zombies, alien invaders and vicious predators from beyond our world. Do your part to save the planet by practicing these world-defense skills.
- The zombie run. A slow fire exercise. Zombies don't move quickly but you do have to hit them in the head to put an end to their nefarious un-dead activities.
- The alien run. As these small green creatures move a little faster, this Course Of Fire has more of a time limit. The heads are quite a bit larger than we see on most earthlings, so they're easier to hit on the move.
- The predator run. This has double the shots, because it's so much harder to put one of these beasts down (though don't try to roast one afterwards, as I understand it, they don't taste like chicken).
So have fun, be safe, and let's make the world safe for... safety.

For simplicity we'll be using standard off-the-shelf targets for this match. You should be able to get them at most sporting goods stores or ranges. If you absolutely can't find them, drop me a line and I'll send you some. [pdenisch@freestateproject.org] Or try (pistoleer.com) The A-14(TQ-4(P)) is the NRA 100yd Small Bore Rifle target (single bull). The B-10(TQ-7) is the NRA 25ft Timed and Rapid Fire Pistol target. We'll try to be more creative on the next match with downloadble 8½x11 targets that will be easier to mail (or better still, to scan and email in).
