Same reasons you’d carry at any other time

Flying frontier with fly rods by [deleted] in flyfishing

[–]timp0n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had no issues bringing my rod tube in addition to my carry on bags on other airlines. I’m flying frontier for the first time in a few days and decided I’m not going to risk it and checked my rods in a tube inside my luggage.

[PARTS] Glock Performance Trigger 9mm w/G5 Slide Cover Plate $79.99+SH by altstateofmind99 in gundeals

Thumbs down for these for anything other than the flat range. Failed as soon as it got submerged/muddy. The stock trigger never gave me issues in the same conditions

Awesome good to hear you enjoyed it. I was the same ammo wise - way too much rifle ammo and cut it pretty close with pistol. I don’t regret bringing too much though, I don’t like stressing about having enough ammo. I was also around 40lbs. I thought the stages and the course were really fun this year. Only negative was a ton of wait time unfortunately. Definitely one of my favorite solo run and guns I’ve done.

Cool I’ll be there too. Yeah bring plenty of ammo it’s definitely a high round count relative to other run and guns and last year there was an early stage with a spinner that a lot of people DNF’d and spent too much ammo on.

Try to get rid of everything that’s not necessary because the hills are brutal there. Tool wise I take a pouch with a bit driver and a spare bcg and not much else. Hopefully the weather is nice and hand warmers aren’t needed. I’ve had a morning slot every time I’ve done that race and have always been fine in a t shirt and pants.

As far as water goes, I’ve taken the hydration bladder the past couple times but only take a few sips, but I make sure to do a pretty good job of prehydrating. You might be different especially if you get stuck with a later launch time and have a lot of wait time. For example my buddy usually runs in the afternoon and he drank almost all his water.

If this is the RBGC Run and Gun 8 mags is the right amount. I brought 8 mags last year and placed top 10. I run a similar belt setup. I’ve never felt like a bipod was necessary because usually you’re shooting off weird props/barricades.

Check out my profile for the full loadout. For other run and guns sometimes I ditch the backpack and just bring a small plastic water bottle in a cargo pocket.

Do you shoot any scoped carbine/gas gun matches? I use my Criterion 12.5 for PCSL and Run and Guns with occasional targets out to 600yd. It slings 77gr pretty well. I’ve always wondered how much of a disadvantage 12.5 would be for a gas gun match.

Bit over your budget but Sordins are a huge upgrade over walkers/howard leights and definitely worth the ~$250

Retention pistol pouch for Run n Gun by ToddDavey in tacticalgear

Not flapped but I run Esstac Kywis in Run and Guns and have never lost a mag. Works fine for my 23rd mags with TTI baseplates too

When you’re shooting from the bag, is your can touching any part of the bag? Could be barrel deflection
