Ok just want to release some information on the October Hdf range day.  The subject matter is going to be shot guns. This is the first time that HDF is presenting this session.  Attendees will be limited in size. Equipment guidelines a shot gun either pump or semi only. It will need to hold 6 shells. (If it doesn't? A tube extender may be needed) you will also need a shell holder that holds 10 shells ie... belt/ side saddle/ bandolier/ pouch. Round count will be something like 100 00buck /100 slugs / 200 bird no larger 7  1/2  Its going to be a 6hour session so be prepared to work . That should get you started for now

some clarifications to DL's post:

the october range day will be a new one for the HDF
we are going to hold a shotgun class
due to the nature of the firearms system, and the fact that for almost every attendee will not be that familiar with running a shotgun in this manner, we are going to strictly limit the class size and the class will be longer
and, in turn, we will also be increasing the range fee for this session only
you will need a pump or semi shotgun that can hold 6 rounds or more (1 in chamber, at least 5 in tube/magazine)
no single shot or over/unders allowed
you must have the ability to carry 10 rounds on the firearm or on your person (side saddle, speedfeed, etc on firearm or belt/bandolier/pouch/etc on your body)
approximate round count is 30 slugs 20 rounds 00 buckshot, and 200 rounds birdshot (#7 or smaller)
long pants and covered shoes are REQUIRED
some people will be more comfortable wearing gloves of some type
slings are optional, not required

signups will be the standard 2nd saturday of the month 8 am

please ask any questions you have now so we can all be on the same page

have a great weekend, everyone

Attendees will be limited in size.

The difference between theory and reality is that, in theory, there is no difference between theory and reality.

It's like the opposite of those "You must be this tall to ride" signs at the fair Tom_G!  Can't wait for it to begin Dirty and Mac!
No one is coming, it’s up to us.

Legislation should never be about depriving law abiding citizens of something, but rather taking those things away from criminals.

...and 200 rounds birdshot (#7 or smaller)...


Shot size #7 1/2 and smaller correct?  Same as the trap side at Kokohead?  Should we also bring our full assortment of chokes as well?

my feeling is that you should use one choke for everything and pattern it
you are not gonna change chokes in the middle of a home defense situation, right?

7.5 is better
but the range staff said 7 is ok if you cannot get 7.5 or 8

Would using a saiga12 for the course defeat the purpose and drills?
