At first I thought it was silly w/suits on shooting. But I San see it's all about hanging out and havin fun !! I guess I need to get out more and chill.
Don't know if this has been pointed out yet or not, but Zoot Suits (that you referrence in your game name) have nothing and I mean nothing to do with the mob or Chicago gangsters. (google this and you will see what I mean) They were seen on Mexicans in LA and these folks were not criminals per-se, just "punks" that picked fights with our servicemen during WWII. I like your idea in general, but you should change the name to something more historically correct!
Thanks for the great feedback! Our first official match is May 30th, 2009 at the Clear Creek County Sportsman's Club in Dumont, CO. We plan to video as much of the Zoot Shoot as possible and post another video here soon after. If you would like to participate, contact us through our website. If you'd like to watch, we promise it won't be boring just be sure to wear eye and ear protection.
absolutely awsome video, I wish I had a range like yours, family get togethers would sure be 100 times more fun with a setup like that, I had the chance to shoot an american 180 which was an absolute blast and would fit your scenario quite well while offering an inexpensive shoot. Well done!!
We don't have a book but do have some rules posted on our website (btw, we have a new site in the works). The rules we currently have are more like guidelines. As the sport progresses, we'll fill in gaps and make changes as necessary.
Brilliant stuff! After hearing about CAS I first thought "Gangsta Action Shooting" would be a cool theme, but this proper "Gangster Action Shooting" seems like a blast as well. Pin stripes and .45's!
The gun moll didn`t do so good.

how much all those guns cost
cinnamonboy2 2 years ago
The FA Thompson which is probably a parts gun runs $12K before the Title II fees. :) An all-matching model is more like $42K. Yep.
The SA version runs around $1200 - much better no?
I guess this won't be popular in Kalifornia...

I foresee a run on 1911's, Auto Ordinance Tommys, double-breasted suits, and Glenn Miller soundtrack albums!
Cool!

Where's the shot guns? No model 12's or browning A5's?

it is for safety and new shooters especially since a lot of the shooters will be new with cross draw rigs.

Eh, just sucks seeing the safest (mechanically) pistol built babied. But, cant argue with safety, especially people unfamiliar with them.

One other thing...did everyone in the 1920s shoot their pistols one handed?

You don't need a Tommy to compete. We have a pistol only division.
