I'm in Pierce Co. near the north end of Tapps.

I read your bio, where I am, I don't have to go to the range.

Actually had a little incident last month, the young gal next door bought this rat like looking little english boxer type mutt. I was in my front yard putting the finishing touches on my rototiller, which I had basically rebuilt from scratch.
The mutt got loose, runs into my yard, and stands about 3 feet from me growling and barking.

Now I had all kinds of tools there, and it didn't really matter anyways, cause one swift kick woulda sent him to hound heaven (or hound hell which is what he deserves).

But I chose to make a point, calmly walking into my house, keeping my eye on him the whole time, then coming back out, chambering a round into my .40 S&W Sigma, and cutting loose with five rounds into a 130 foot Doug fir in my backyard.
Dropped the clip and shot the last one.

Put the gun away, and came back out. The gal's boyfriend says "Hey, that was a little extreme!"

I tell him "No, it wasn't. I didn't shoot the dog"

Next time I saw her walking her dog, she had a BIG, and I mean BIG new leash.

We're fairly close. It must be nice to be able to shoot in your own backyard; I'm afraid the homeowners association here probably wouldn't appreciate it!
