How many Aggies does it take to run a video camera at a 3gun match?

sorry but there has to be a joke in there somewhere.

It was a good match. Stages were more challenging than last year which is good. Here's my video.

So did you start with your whole body in the airplane on 11 (IE both feet within the airplane)??

Left knee was on the floor, foot just inside doorway, right leg was on the bench and bent but I'm not sure my right foot was just inside or outside the doorway. I asked the RO if my start position was ok during the walkthrough, he told me others had started standing on the runners while leaning into the plane but they had trouble getting their rifle into the dump barrel.

Cool, I was more trying to figure out when in the weekend "in the plane" was expanded to include leg hanging out of the plane.

It looks like you had a good match. I was seeing your scores when they would come in to stats and it looked like you were rocking it... WTG bro. (I of course need to stop watching videos of the match, I saw you fail to engage a popper and keep running on a stage where you had zero penalties.. )

Thanks, I was happy with most of my shooting with the exception of the long range stage.

The plane stage was the last one we shot on Saturday afternoon but from the way it sounded it was being shot with a loose interpretation of in the plane well before then.

Good eye on the missed popper, I started on the 2nd target in the array and wondered how I took them all down with 9 shots. I immediately went back to the grounded shotgun loaded another round and took it so I did get them all but I heard mixed opinions on whether picking up a grounded gun was legal or not. The RO on the next stage I was at told me what I did should have been at least a procedural. On two other later stages RO's told us we could go back to a grounded gun but on the airplane stage they told us we could not go back to our grounded pistol. There was about a 50/50 split on RO opinions when I asked them about that. I just looked through the rules and didn't see anything specifically about it, what's your take?

According to the match director once a gun is grounded it is out of the game. That is something else I will add to the list of rules we need to get squared away for next year. I personally don't care as long as you are safe in whatever you do.
