ASSRA German event at Beeson Range Oct. 4-6, 2024
This weekend’s German event will be a 3 shot Honor target at 100 yards, with .22s, on an ASSRA #1 (black) or # 1.5 (orange) target. The targets may be shot during any relay Fri., Sat. or Sunday. Bob Keller has a newly purchased German rifle that he will make available to be shot on Saturday while he’s at the range. I’ll also have my German and Swiss rifles as options all 3 days. Three shots ONLY at each target-no reshooting missed shots. No shooting coats. 
Step 1: Purchase the target(s) you want to shoot, stamp it/them “German” and “Traditional”, and bring it to the bench that has the offhand stand and German .22 rifle. I’ll have 2 targets on the backer ready to shoot, then between relays we’ll replace them with the targets brought by shooters to try to have fresh targets available whenever someone wants to shoot instead of waiting to post between relays.
Step 2: Place $5 into the event stein to shoot a first Honor target and $1 into the stein for each additional target you shoot. Targets are reentry and may be shot during any relay any of the 3 days of the match and/or after Fri. or Saturday’s regular relays are over if anyone’s interested.
Step 3: Turn in your single best target for the weekend.
The usual prizes are available for 1st-3rd. A beer glass and 3 German biere (beers-plural) for 1st, 2 German biere for 2nd, and a German bier (singular) for 3rd. “Bier” is pronounced “beer”, just like we do. Substitutions available will be maple syrup (sub for 3 beers), Sprecher’s Craft Root Beer (sub for a beer), biermarke tokens (1 maximum/person), a Stormy Krommer can cozy (sub for 2 beers), and notgelde (1 max/person)-cool local emergency money banknotes from Germany, produced during economic stress when the government couldn’t produce enough state-produced money to service the country’s needs from the central bank. One bill is a notgeld, pronounced “note gelt”. One biermarke or one notgeld may be substituted for a beer. Another substitution option is a bag of German coffee-whole beans-instead of 2 beers.
THERE ARE A DOZEN BRATS LEFT OVER FROM THE NATIONAL KING MATCH. I’LL COOK THOSE FOR DINNER SAT NIGHT AND PROVIDE BUNS, CHIPS, CHEESE PLATTER, AND POTATO SALAD FOR A MEAL. A DONATION BUCKET WILL BE ON THE TABLE.
