I've seen it a couple times but...
..it didn't last long. When we have rifle or shotgun matches it can bring lots of "non match" shooters out of the woodwork. (guys that aren't regulars, that don't shoot all the other matches). I guess it's a chance for them to break out their SHTF/Zombie Apocalypse/Canadian Invasion gear. Last July's rifle match we had a number of guys with plate carriers and the full getup. Most of them had shed them by mid match. lol
