aka47 0 #1 January 5, 2004 OK non-PC, meat eating, pistol packin', real Americans....is there or can we put together a SWOOP and SHOOT somewhere/time? New to the sport and the site but hey, nothin' like just blasting the damn doors in place, hell with nockin' huh? Jump, fly, land...cut away main and draw and run thru a tactical pistol course, or better yet go right into a shoot-house with simunitions! Yeah baby!!!! Flame suit on...I hope nobody throws a vegi burger on me! (I actually eat em so aim for my mouth) "I'm the one with the pistol stupid, why would I be paranoid?" heheheheheheeh>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>America is a Constitutional democratic REPUBLIC, NOT a democracy!

hookitt 1 #3 January 5, 2004 That sounds like a blast.... so to speak Dunno about carrying the guns with you though. You'd probably have to land, run in grab the gun and start shootin. I'll be sure to bring you a vegie burger if you're really into that sort of thing. Those things are kinda, well, how do you say... Yucky.My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You'd probably have to land, run in grab the gun and start shootin. actually carry a Glock in a jump rated thigh holster from several of the top tactical gear makers will be fine. SOP is to have the mag loaded but no round in the chamber, and no issues with the pistol falling out, it's under three seperate safety wraps so to speak.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>America is a Constitutional democratic REPUBLIC, NOT a democracy!

NightJumper 0 #5 January 5, 2004 Actually it is pretty easy. The MT-1XX and MC-4&5's that we use have holsters on the side for our Glocks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
indyz 1 #6 January 5, 2004 A DZ down south somewhere (keep in mind I'm from Illinois, so "south" is anywhere below the Great Lakes) has an annual "chute and shoot" event. I think I saw an article in Parachutist. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hookitt 1 #7 January 5, 2004 I was only talking about the legistics... Carring them is easy, but being allowed to carry them is what I was talking about. Then again, if you're going to just have a bandit event, you can do any thing you wish. I missed the Chute and Shoot issue so I haven't a clue how they did it.My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry...

aka47 0 #10 January 5, 2004 well F&#* the FAA. If your are taking off from a private airport in a private plane and you carry on your baggage and the baggage is a pistol then so be it. F$%#^ them, this is still AMERICA! Those who give up freedom for a little security deserve neither freedom nor security! You figure it out! RANT OVER! The supreme court can BLOW ME!

TitaniumLegs 8 #12 January 5, 2004 Just wondering where it says you can't have a gun on a private flight. There's probably a grey area with most jump ops since that's really a commercial operation. You and I both know some people who have done it - but one's a cop (SWAT) and the others are PJs. (On second thought, I've never actually seen the PJs jump with weapons at Marina or Byron.) If you really want to jump with a "weapon" jump with a toy or replica, then switch after landing. Or use paintball, airsoft or laser. (>o|-< If you don't believe me, ask me.

b1jercat 0 #14 January 5, 2004 Eugene skydivers in oregon do a chute,scoot and shoot or some variation of that for a boogie every year. last year it was a GI joe boogie, off DZ landing from 4 k , shuck your rig go to 3 different stations ending up at the shooting station with a glock and two clips. good fun, although we weren't allowed to jump with the weapons you could supply your own weapon if you wanted to. check it. blue skies jerry Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stacy 0 #15 January 5, 2004 ZHills has an annual chute and shoot. It's usually around easter time. Not sure how exactly it's formatted, but I believe Billy Porter is the contact. __ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bch7773 0 #17 January 5, 2004 Quote Hmmm. Carrying a gun on a plane. Somehow I don't think this event would be sanctioned by the FAA. why don't you all set up a gun station on the ground, and when you land, go get your gun, and start shooting. Then you don't have to worry about all the problems of carrying a gun onto a plane... both the legal problems and the safety issues. anyways, it seems like a fun idea. too bad the only pistol I own is a .177 caliber gas-powered revolver (aka pellet gun) MB 3528, RB 1182 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sdgregory 0 #19 January 6, 2004 I am all for it. Take an H&K MP5 and forget cutting away swoop and shoot at targets as you swoop through them! Then cutaway drop the gun, run ahead to a bar set up at the end of the course down a shot run back put on another rig do it all again till you pass out!
