the KA-BAR Bolt Action Build Off

[phiz]

Phiz (spotter/mechanic) and Llama (shooter).

[KA-BAR]

hey phiz, there is no need for a spotter.

this is a rifle build competition, not a scout sniper event. but i am very sure in the near future Bill an BSP will be hosting the BSP scout/sniper challenge.
but ill add you if you got a rifle build you want to enter.

[Matt]

So this is a knee-jerk reaction to that other contest you don't like?

[KA-BAR]

bingo.

[Seagreen]

Whether or not it is kneejerk, it is getting interest. I think I'd up the timeline Morgan...a year is a little too long. Why not spring?....shit dude...a year?

Everyone will have forgotten and broken their shit by then.

Also....event coordinator, have you determined whether or not you will provide prizes for this gig? Or is this one of those "I have the honor of winning" programs. Both are completely good to go, but you should clearly outline those things prior to step off.

I'd prefer it if there were no prizes, but rather some sort of signature flair...that you design for the top three. Least it'd mean more.

[Tombstone]

For a knee-jerk reaction, he's already got 3 times the number of participants.
*Golf clap*

[KA-BAR]

i like the idea of no prizes, and lots of boasting rights.

ill come up with something. ill have to contact Troy and reset the date for field use and his availability.

i went for january because it is after the holidays, and more people will have more time to tinker.

[Seagreen]

You sure about January? If I were you I'd try to link it to a bigger game..so you have a field and the players there...with an audience.

You make it a show and go event, rather than a come and play..and then show off your skills...or lack thereof, you will lose potencial participants.

Try to link into the LoW game..or something like that. That'd be a good way to cross promote and give the people something else to do the night before the event.

[KA-BAR]

i think you misread my event date. it is slotted for last sunday in january 2011. that is a month and a half away bill....

[Seagreen]

I read it as 2012. Sorry.

Hope that's not the Superbowl..because, I'll be drinking and eating a pastrami.

[KA-BAR]

the mayans wont let me put dates past dec. 2012 Bill....


new details added to OP.

[Merchant]

I'm down for this. Can't wait.

[Junto]

I'm down for clipboard duty as well.

[MagicMarker]

i feel like maybe you'd say i'm one of those people not exactly in the community, but i want to, haha, i just joined the forum but i airsoft a ton and it's basically my life besides my girlfriend, haha

if i could go, how far is this from Seattle? lol

[KA-BAR]

this event has been consolidated with the Ghilleman 2011 event , that is to be held in late march. the 29th to be exact.
