Members zepman Posted August 8, 2006 Members Share Posted August 8, 2006 FINALLY made it to the range yesterday,first time since April 05:eek: WHEN I normally shoot once a month AT LEAST.Had a divorce and two knee surgerys get in the way of me having much fun;) ANYWAY me and my boy decided to make it a Smith and Wesson day so we brought my late 70's vintage 44 mag,and two 50's vintage 38 specials I also brought my home defense weapon of choice my Dad's old M1911A fixed sight that I just put a new barrel on the day before.http://zepman.net/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/m1911a1b.jpgAnyway we shared a lane for an hour and then I fired two strings from each weapon rapid fire on seperate targets(25FT). I am happy with the results due to the long layoff BUT those groups should be a LOT tighter then they are. I got some work to do:thu: ........................John:wave: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members C-Dawg Posted August 10, 2006 Members Share Posted August 10, 2006 I have a Springfield 1911 that I shoot. I don't go to ranges, I just go to my family's land and shoot squirrels. If I don't see any rodents, I just put up some targets and shoot at them. I need to get me a 9mm or something 'cus the .45 rounds cost a lot.

Members FLYING V 83 Posted August 10, 2006 Members Share Posted August 10, 2006 My "S&W Day" means bringing these to the range:4" 686 and a 2" 60, both with Meprolight sights.I handload my own ammo (a lot cheaper that way) and when I rip off a round on the snubby the 44 mag guys get jealous!18 grains of 2400 under a 125gr hollowpoint = 2 foot flame out the muzzle and a concussion that makes shotgunners take notice.On my "45" days I bring these: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members gafyagaton Posted August 10, 2006 Members Share Posted August 10, 2006 I should probably start going to a shooting range and learn proper gun handling proceedures. If anybody broke into my home today... i'd probably shoot a hail of bullets into the wall around him outlining his body shape. Criminals' bodies should not be outlined that way.

Members Rich Posted August 10, 2006 Members Share Posted August 10, 2006 Kimber Custom Target stainless in .45 ACP. I use Wilson mags and Galco leather to carry it in. It's pretty accurate for a 1911 to boot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
