Default Range Day

Some safe queens got to see some action today (along with some other pistols). I decided it was time to let them out of prison for a while
I basically pulled out pistols from the safe until I couldn't cram any more in the range bag, and then put another one on my belt LOL

3 45 APCs
1 44 Special
1 380
2 22s

The Browning 22 was shooting a lot better than I remembered. And my double action technique needs a LOT more practice.

Smile what the heck?

All those guns and you forgot to pack a camera and take pictures of your targets to share?

I mean - something like this; don't tease us by saying you went to the range and not show us!

Running plate racks. Not much to show...

But sure, I'll take a picture of them next time I'm at the range...they will still look exactly the same as they did when I shot them...

Sadly I will be traveling through GA in about 2 weeks. I doubt I will pass near you as 75 runs due north. And I don't even think we will have room for range gear, packing our two kids along with us the car might be tight as it is.

Default Target Photo

Thanks Doc.

I had a range day this afternoon; took my Uzi Model B 9mm, Galil .223; S&W 6906, and "T" Series Hi Power. No pictures of the Uzi and Galil Targets but the Uzi, in 9mm is practically a no recoil shooting gun. Here's the photo of the S&W 6906 and Hi Power targets. Range from 10, 15, and 25 yards. I think I need to adjust the rear sight on the 6906 it shot consistently left.

So we shall flow a river forth to Thee, and teeming with souls shall it ever be.
