Nice shooting. I went up in the mountains today and bagged 8 quail and 4 tree squirrels. Birds with a shottie and the tree rats with a rimfire handgun.

Goin to the range tomorrow with a long-time freind....... will play at the rifle range & gongs, do some sillouette work with handguns and finish up busting clays.

Hi there GRRRRR! No didn’t make it out. I’m afraid to use my ammo because it’s so difficult to obtain. Excellent shooting toward the end. I miss going but...right now holding tight..THANKS for sharing!

I spend time breaking in my new Springfield EMP. Wonderful gun. Here it is with a regular magazine and one cropped to make it flush with the handle.

I didn’t fire a single shot. I did walk around the yard and nearby woods a few times with a pistol in my pocket tho.

Dang handsome piece of hardware you got. I am having thoughts that my Sig is lonely all by itself. I definately want another SIG, perhaps in .45 or .40, but then having to get a large supply of ammo in another caliber could strain the pocket book. I’d like another brand too, SW .38 special would be nice...

Are those powder marks on the target? How close we’re you. (Just kidding. Good shooting)

I put the first 50 rounds thru my new S&W model 442 .38 special. The gun’s so lite & the handle so small it feels like a hand-cannon. And yes, my hand hurts.

I stayed home and cleaned guns and gear. I’m going to parkerize the 12 guage pump, the blue is worn down pretty heavy. 25 years in canoes and Jon boats takes a toll. Mechanically, the old girl is good as new.

Took my T/C Hawken .50 muzzleloader out for the first time (for me) today. Not sure if I’m going to keep it just yet. It’s fun,but it IS a hassle to do the cleanup after use.

Got out Friday. About 70 rounds of .223 Wolf through an AR-180B, bench shooting at 100 yards. Took a little while to settle in, last two sets were all in the paint (about 2 MOA). Good day.

Then came the cleaning. Wolf is DIRTY. Took about 1 hour for a complete tear down, clean, oil, and re-assemble. But that’s OK, I don’t mind doing that, either.

At the range today, there were some Russians with all sorts of hardware.

They got some attention when they sent some .44mag rounds down range...then they unloaded some .50 PISTOL rounds...you could feel the entire place shake and the air all moved big time...each round costs $2.50 so they didn’t shoot too many!!
