“Downrange with Dean Guzman”

DOWNRANGE
with Dean Guzman

“Load and make ready”
“Are you ready?” “Standby”
“If you are finished, unload
and show clear”
“If clear, hammer down,
holster” “Range is clear”
These words are music
to the ears of many shooting
sports enthusiasts, whether
they’re doing IPSC (ipscbc.
com), IDPA or USPSA.
And in any shooting sports
around the world, you will
always meet a fellow-Filipino
enjoying the challenges of
competitive shooting.
To our readers, we
welcome you to Downrange
with DG here at Philippine
News Today (PNT)!
We pick up right where
we left off from our Onsight
column in Living Today
Magazine and jump right
into today’s Shooting Sports
and Industry-related Topics.
As the action shooting
competitions wind down for
the cold and wet months
ahead, we focus our sights
on the upcoming SHOT
Show in Las Vegas this
January 2017.
This huge event is called
S.H.O.T. Show because it
is a Shooting, Hunting and
Outdoor Trade Show, the

JJ Racaza.
PNT member & assistant
David Gabriele, will be with us
at the show and will help us
understand the other aspects
of the industry: hunting and

outdoors (camping, etc).
Watch out for our reports and
reviews of SHOW Show and
its exhibitors in early February

daughter of senior IPSC
shooter, Mike Lao and last
but not least, the pride of Fort
McMurray, Alberta, an even
younger IPSC champion,
Rojin Altares. They will share

‘shooting sports’, how they
got started, tips for beginners
&/or those would like to get
into the sport and most
importantly, how their chosen
sport has made them better

human beings!
If you have comments
and/or questions, please
feel free to email us at dg@
