...thats below the belt man! I had my SGT. there as my witness and sign. He is as good as the check I wrote him

Can a video count as a witness? I made a video, can get the guy(camera guy) to sign it, is all on film. Gonna post vid this week.

Oh boy......I screwed this up.....was at a self defense pistol class in Volusia last weekend....during break the instructor gave time for me to set up and shoot COTEP target........handed my video camera to a classmate, pulled out the target, pulled out laser rangefinder, promptly dropped a cardboard wedge as my line and shot. Trouble is we measured in a hurry, and all we saw was the top of the target where it says National Rifle Association B-16 Style 25 Yard Slow Fire Pistol Target......the key here is "25 yards"...so I shot a nearly 100 year old Colt, loaned by a friend, at 25 yards. Not known when the gun was fired last, I lubed it and shot it. Still has original wood grips from WWII. I will tell the story with my video later this week, but I shot the wrong distance in all the hurry/excitement.
So I am kaput.......very sad...

Thanks for deflating my balloon with your accuracy...last thing I would want is to send in a cheater target.

What a botch job, eh?
Ahhh, I got to shoot the Colt, made two hits and had a great weekend.
Next time I'll ignore the target and print the thread.

Here is my shoot. Was at a Threat Focused shooting class up in Volusia, Florida. The instructor called a break and gave me the nod to do my shoot. Looking at the target which says "25 yard" I zoomed along, forgetting we were shooting at 50 yards. Anyways.....I will still send my target in on Monday along with my Forum contribution. Hope you all enjoy the vid, I am headed to my SC house for Thanksgiving and am going to shoot 50 yards out in the horse pasture to see how I might have done. Good luck to all of you who did it right!

Good shootin'

I'm not even sending my target in. I hit mine 2 of 5. We ret is do not work all night and then shoot for 2.5 to 3 hours and then try a shot at your target. can attest to this but my first shots out of my Sistema were an awesome grouping but they were on my challenge target.
