Spring Action Weekend (SAW) 2015, Bisley – Joint Services Pistol Club

Four members of JSPC travelled to Bisley to partake in the SAW 2015.

Norman continued his good form and had a very good weekend of trophies and added some very worthy scores to his tally at Bisley.

A short report from Colin, JSPC Chairman:

Hello Everyone,

If you visit galleryrifle.com you will see that our small band of shooters has been at the Spring Action showing the Sassenachs how it’s done. The group took 11 first places, 3 second and 1 third.

Norman couldn’t be content with that and decided to set a New British Record in the Multi Target Open Class ! #…#.

(Norman also equalled the current British Record in Advancing Target Open Class)

The Phoenix entry forms – on line and paper – are now on the NRA/GR website. Get in early – I’ve a feeling that this year will be busy. Accommodation is going fast.

Remember the GR Squad Training at Colmsliehill on 4th April. Start 10:00 . It would be handy to know who is coming so that we can alert Tam the burger.

There will be two other local meetings – one North and the other South of the river.

Meanwhile, the JSPC Spring Open 17/18/19 April. Entry forms on the website

Saturday provided us with some unwelcome weather more suited to a Scottish winter, and it was as well that most competitors carried their winter clothing with them. It was freezing, and the wind increased in the late afternoon to test some of us even more.

Frozen fingers and butts were order of the day.

Sunday was much better weather wise and allowed us to finish an enjoyable weekend of shooting.

My thanks once again to Debbie and staff at the London and Middlesex who took pity on us and opened especially on Sunday evening to provide just three lone shooters with food and drink (Leslie and two Cornish visitors).

L&M however will be open on Sunday at the Phoenix 2015 and at the Nationals in August, so please give them your support.

Meanwhile, here are some photos to give a taste of the weekend.
