A friend of mine drug me out EARLY in the morning yesterday.

We went through about 150 rounds of 7.62x54r, 50 rounds of 9mm, and about 24 rounds of 9x18mak. (it was cold out there or I would have stayed longer.)

The more I shoot my Hi Point 9mm carbine the more I just love it. It is so damn easy to shoot and accurate!
(It'll probably send me to the poor house spraying all that 9mm.)

Those 9mm carbines are a hoot! It’s like a .22 with a thump.

I got up not so early and headed out to meet FReepers NYTexan, BuckeyeTexan and Buckeyes Son.

We met up for major southern breakfast including chicken fried steaks, and then headed to the range.

The weather was grand, 70-72, but windier than I would have liked.
The place was packed with familys, BBQing, shooting the breeze and shooting everything from from class III to tannerite.

Much fun was had by all,

Took my daughter in law and her mother out today to shoot. Seems they both want a firearm for home protection. Not CCW, maybe later. Both are noobs. I have hanguns and shotties of most every caliber and type and I wanted them to see what they felt comfortable with.

For simplicity they both locked onto revolvers. They felt SA’s too complicated and slides were too hard.

Prolly going to go buy 3” or 4” Ruger or Smith 6 round revolvers. They liked my J Frames, but decided the bigger rosco’s were easier to aim and had more capacity.

Mother and daughter’s eyes lit up when I told them 7 shot revolvers that weren’t horribly big were also avwilable.
