The different targets and challenges CAS has sound like fun to me. That's the only problem with shooting on the formal range where I do; you can only shoot paper targets, and only at the standard 25 and 50 yards. I would enjoy some challenges, some things that clanged or fell down, and some ranges I didn't know in advance.
Some of my friends say "Come out to the shoot. We're friendly guys, somebody will loan you an extra revolver or a rifle until you get your own." But that's never been the point.
I'm not rolling in the dough, but somehow I came up with enough to buy a new motorcycle a few years ago now. If I really wanted to, I could buy all the guns I needed for CAS. Heck, I could buy two sets-- get a second set in .357 and load it with pipsqueak loads, so that I could Game the System.
But I don't want to. I have never had any use for shotguns, I hate the idea of buying two identical ANYTHING, and, quite frankly, if I wanted to have $3000 tied up in so many game tools I needed a cart to haul them, I would have taken up golf.
Maybe, if those of us who are and wish to remain cartless are not welcome in SASS, we should start our own organization. The Single Action Plinkers' Society, SAPS!
No, um, wait a minute.....
