The Bubba Effect
Grandmaster
I have read a few comments on this weekend's Atterbury shoot and I noticed a trend of "I should not have brought this". It got me thinking about the things that I brought that I will not be bringing next time and I thought it might make a neat thread if we gathered all the junk we are not bringing back into one thread.
So, what are you not bringing next time?
I'm not bringing:
Rain Pants: I might bring my rain jacket again, jury is out, but I am not dragging my rain pants all over that range any more. If it rains, it rains.
Magnet: I have a magnet like you use to pick up nails in a driveway. I use it to police my steel cases on regular shooting days. I thought it might be helpful at Atterbury, but with so many shooters it would only help a small number of them and we would still have to wait for the others to police their casings,so it's staying home next time.
AAA batteries: My ear pro uses AAA's, but next time I'll put fresh batteries in them and not bring extras.
Extra Bolt Carrier Group: I might still bring an extra bolt for my AR, but i might not. No way am i bringing a whole BCG.
How about you? What are you trimming from your kit before the next shoot?
