Denny Chapman Wins Mounted Shooting Competition
Denny won the title of Overall Champion Cowboy at a SASS Mounted Shooting competition July 25 in Ocala FL. The match, featuring 40 competitors from the Central Florida area, was held at the Southeastern Livestock Pavilion. "I was proud to represent my sponsors while winning this competition, "Chapman said, "My Taylor's single action pistols functioned flawlessly, using a great new gun rig from Rod Kibler Saddlery with my saddle sitting on an Impact Gel saddle pad. Combine this with Suncoast Bedding and Mane N Tail products, and I've got a great group of sponsors!" Denny will be competing again Aug 8 in at a CMSA match in New Smyrna Beach, FL, in August and announcing at the CMSA Eastern Championships in TN in September. "Mounted Shooting is a big part of my life and business, " Denny said, "Between competing, announcing, and training horses and competitors for the sport, it accounts for more than 50% of my business."

Denny Chapman - mounted shooting with Taylor's Firearms and Rod Kibler Saddlery
Here are some shots of my Taylor's mounted shooting pistols nestled in my new custom mounted shooting gun rig by Rod Kibler. Rod has years of experience with both CAS as well as CMSA and SASS Mounted Shooting, and it sure shows in his craftsmanship and quality. This custom rig has turned-out rawhide lips to help funnel the gun when executing a fast gun change, sight locks for added security, and beautiful tooling and spots for the buckaroo look I favor. I use a Kibler rifle scabbard as well for mounted rifle shooting competition. I'm proud to support Kibler Saddlery (http://www.rodkiblersaddlery.com/) and recommend Rod's work to anyone looking for the best quality ground and mounted shooting equipment and Taylor's & Company Firearms (http://www.taylorsfirearms.com/) - Keeping the Legend Alive! Happy Trails,
