I shot my first "Cowboy Action Shooting" match yesterday and had a BLAST!
I had the guns, but no holsters, and ammo belt. Not to worry, one of the nice folks at the range let me borrow his gear and I used my guns. It turned out that he was a multi-time State Champ!
Wow, try getting some "big name" IPSC shooter to loan you gear, let alone even talk to you. I'm hooked, the attitude of the people and the fun will bring me back for sure.
I ended up placing fourth, and even got a cool little pin too. I got another pin that means even more to me, but it also proves what I've always said, "Accuracy Is Final". The pin was a "Clean Shoot" pin.
I ordered some holsters today and took my Shotgun in for an "Action Job". Now I have to start getting the proper period clothing. Yesterday I wore my jeans, boots and spurs, with my chinks, along with a homemade shirt and hat. Those are my "working clothes" when I'm at the ranch.
