Early June Range Day

[duckknot]

Glad you got to play with some other's toys.

Ummmm....what kinda shooting were you guys doing!?

sent from wait....where am I!?

 

[Vaquero]

Pics are slowly coming through from my phone to tablet.
Meanwhile, I want to share a story.

As usual, the lever action and a box of .38 spl reloads went to the range with me. Most of the guys took a turn at it.
I'd shot quite a few myself from a rested position. Did ok, so I thought.
Southpaw saunters over and kinda points to it and gives me a look. (Ear pro and being half deaf anyway, I don't need it spelled out most times).
So, we get Southpaw set up with 5 rounds of plinking reloads. He fires off 2 rounds and asks, "what's the deal with these sights?".
I tell him to tuck the front bead into the small of the rear buckhorn and hold at 6 o'clock.
"Oh, ok". Bang! Bullseye. Bang! Bullseye. Bang! Bullseye.

Just gimme back my gun! Loan Southpaw a gun and he returns it with a helping of humble pie.

Y'all been warned.

You're just such a freakin awesome instructor.

Nice goin' SP!

Nice to meet you too Robert, it was awesome to get to try the riffles out. Now I have to decide if I want to get a .22 or save up for an AR. I wanted a 1911, but looks like I may change my mind.

Vaquero shot my 10/22 quite nicely.

I was impressed with the Remington 22's. Big ups to southpaw for letting me checkout that PTR!

Good to meet you today. That S&W pistol is a very cool gun.

Check this out. Modern Firearms - S&W 39, 59 and others

It shows most of the different 3rd gen S&W models.

+1 on the PTR you bastard SP. I thought I was happy with what I had. Now between you and Franz, y'all have created a new itch or two.

Same here and thanks. That's a good link, buds guns has a picture on their main page saying they have police trade ins that look just like mine but when you click on it the page never loads

Dietz was an hour drive for me, I wish the bullet hole didnt get so busy. That place is about 20 minutes from me.

Checkout Blackhawk shooting range. I prefer it over bullet hole.

I'm about 20 minutes from the bullethole as well.

[Vaquero]

Some will shoot.

 

[Vaquero]

Some visit.

 

[Vaquero]

Mostly, we did both.

Looks like a nice range. Where's that at? My folks live in Pipe creek next to Bandera. Bandera gun range is pretty nice.

Got to decide what your purposes are. Having both a 22 rifle and some sort of carbine is recommended.
