Pitspitr · November 15, 2011, 08:45:45 PM

It is my pleasure to announce that the Kansas Vigilance Committee has volunteered to host the 2012 Grand Muster at Garnett Kansas October 5th through the 7th.

It has been requested that we have the banquett at an in-door venue for 2012. (We got lucky with the weather this year.) We have started the search. As soon as we have that lined up, and a cost established, we will begin registrations.

Registrations for 2012 will be handled by myself, pretty much the same way we did for the 2011 Grand Muster.
[If anyone has improvement suggestions, please send me a PM.]

Are you guys covered for the other meals or will the Commissary Dept be needed?

I'm planning on making it to this one. It's been quite a spell since I been able to make the "big" GAF Muster.

Respectfully submitted,
LtCol (bvt) Mustang Gregg

It is on my calendar thanks to the gracious invitation of the Col. I do hope to make it and sounds like it will be the debut of my reproduction M1872 Infantry Gear!!!

I am so excited, and will be there at all costs.

Not only is the GAF worthy of support,- the Kansas Vigilance Committee consistently hosts memorable events.

To my mind the above two groups represent the very best combination that could be asked for when considering variety of arms allowed coupled with creative use of a range.

GAF Musters are run according to GAF rules within the safety guidelines of the host range.

Wouldn't that really just be an NCOWS shoot with uniforms?

Maybe, then maybe not!

We have different firearm requirements and shooting categories, and our stages have our own special twist to them.

That is what I thought.

Never heard of NCOWS allowing RIFLE calibers in the main match, GAF does give more leeway in weapon choices and isn't as strict about PC gear. Authenticity is encouraged by the GAF and rewarded. but those that don't go all the way are still allowed to join the fun even at the regional and national level. within the rules of the hosting range.

The way I feel is the GAF says "this is what would best fit what we are doing" NCOWS often says "you can't use that here"
basically the same goal but approached a different way. Just my 1/2 cent worth.

I will submit for vacation tomorrow. It stands a good chance, October, I work nights.
