We had 4 kidneys at the drills night tonight!
I bought some targets tonight but didn't take the targets. Does that mean I donated some Kidneys?
I'm so in for this 1911 toss. I just hope it doesn't malfunction.

No further that a pygmy can toss it ,it will not malfunction.Try tossing a plastic gun and see which goes further.
(nam era) yea though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I will fear no evil for I am the meanest SOB in the valley!
You guys are just . . . . outstanding. Thank you. All. Even Ike.
The object of tossage is on-hand. It will be a real metal replica. You guys gotta know a real 1911 being tossed downrange (again) would result in Talon1 & Talon2 killing us all slowly and painfully. Over several days.
So, while I appreciate the sentiment (especially attempting to improve the function of the Llama [that might work by the way]) I know you guys know it just won't fly.
. . . pun intended.
I'd rather be lucky than good, but I'd rather KNOW I'm good than HOPE to get lucky.

Woops. SOrry. I was adding "metal replica" as you posted that. Sorry.

Yes, or metal replica. I believe Noose already offered one up.Woops. SOrry. I was adding "metal replica" as you posted that. Sorry.
So the toss is a complete replica gun downrange and not a stripped one in a ziplock bag?
A bag of parts being slung downrange by someone wearing a marco polo hat.....yeah,
Id pay to see that..

It's a complete non-firing replica 1911 with working slide, safety, trigger, magazine, and solid cartridges. It's probably 40 years old - I bought it and put it together when I was a wee teenager. It does have one grip panel that is partially broken but I think that will be the least of its worries on Saturday. I have a roll of Gorilla Duct tape to help with consistency between participants. The game will be furthest distance on the fly to first impact. In the event of a tie, the winner will be graded on throwing style and accuracy... yes, style points will count.
It'll either be on Talon's competition range if the steel challenge match is done by noon or the 270 range (by the Conex boxes).
Bring cash - no checks no credits cards. Hope to see you there on September 20, 2014 at Noon. Jim
