I know Knot Hardly Dunn and have shot with him and his wife many times. Last year they moved from South Carolina to New Mexico (or AZ). Somewhere way out there.

If I did CAS (I don't) I suspect my name would be "Flashguy". (I know--you all expected that . . . .) flashguy Texan by choice, not accident of birth | |||

Not mine, but I thought Tequila Mockingbird was clever. | |||

While not "clever", I chose a character I admired from the JW movie "Angel and the Bad Man" B&W 1947 - the calm, persistent, philosophical...but dangerous, Territorial "Marshal Wistful McClintock" played by Harry Carey, Sr. who ***Spoiler Alert*** guns down the 2 "Heavies"...Laredo Stevens and Hondo Jeffries, in the end saving Quirt Evans (JW)..."the Bad Man", life . | |||

A few names I've heard : Willie Shootem, Barry L Plotz, Bad Eye Leftie. There's hundreds of interesting, historical, whimsical, humorous and/or just funny names that add a dimension to the hobby. **************~~~~~~~~~~ "I've been on this rock too long to bother with these liars any more." ~SIGforum advisor~ "When the pain of staying the same outweighs the pain of change, then change will come."~~sigmonkey | |||

I know Will E. Shoot! So many good ones. Whiskey Business is another good one. Warren Peace. Then there are the "Huggnkiss" Triplets: Anita Huggnkiss, Amanda Huggnkiss, and Ivanna Huggnkiss. Suzie Silkknickers was another one I liked. Russ N. Hound and Fox E. Hound. I actually struggled to choose mine. It was between "Rolan Kraps" or "Col. Batt Guano".

How does it work in CAS...do you pick your own alias or is one "hung" on you by your fellow shooters...like nicknames or fighter pilot call signs?
Given your screen name I'd be a bit concerned about your CAS match costume. | |||

I was advised those that hesitate too long to announce his alias, is likely to have one awarded... **************~~~~~~~~~~ "I've been on this rock too long to bother with these liars any more." ~SIGforum advisor~ "When the pain of staying the same outweighs the pain of change, then change will come."~~sigmonkey | |||

Yes, I've been a forum member long enough to know that. My comment was a little good natured ribbing of the deux entendre of your screen name ...hence the wink eye emojicon in my post. | |||

You pick your own when you register. All Alias's must be unique. Afterall, there can't be two "Rolan Kraps" Rolan Kraps SASS Regulator Gainesville, Georgia. NRA Range Safety Officer NRA Certified Instructor - Pistol / Personal Protection Inside the Home | |||

MDS, I suspected that was the case. However, for anyone who hasn't been here long I though an explanation would be useful. flashguy Texan by choice, not accident of birth | |||

If I was to join I would want to be Dead Eye Dick...but, alas, it is taken. What happens when a CAS member quits participating or passes...is their alias retired out of respect (like retiring a sports legend's jersey number), is it willed to a friend or family member, or does the alias become available for another member to use? Do CAS members ever change aliases? | |||

I joined early on in Connecticut-- my badge number was under 1000 and the entire CASS Manual was a single sheet of paper, folded in quarters; 3 of which were the front, table of contents and the back page. Of rules there were the necessaries & common sense was expected. My name is Paladins' given name...

After someone leaves or passes away, the alias is available again. Yes, some people DO change aliases. Rolan Kraps SASS Regulator Gainesville, Georgia. NRA Range Safety Officer NRA Certified Instructor - Pistol / Personal Protection Inside the Home | |||
