“clay pigeons will be obliterated,”

If we hit at least two, this will be a true statement..

What range are you going to ?

Joe was like a kid in a candy store with 50 bucks to spend. He was having too much fun and showed us what a pistoleer he really is with a Glock.

After I finally figured out how my entry shotgun operated, I realized that it really doesn’t belong on a trap range. Unfortunately the guys wouldn’t let me load up with 00 buck and clear the low house of clay pigeons. Party poopers all.

Still got some fun in and littered the deck with brass. I know the liberals reading this would want to hear about the mishaps since we were using firearms but, alas, there weren’t any. Just a bunch of responsible guys having fun.

ACT finally realized that the trench gun does not belong on a trap range, but he still oblitered more than his fair share of clays. I am way, way jealous of the M1D Garand he has. A good day for sure.

The look on Joe’s face when he fired the Remington Model 700 ADL bolt action said it all. She kicks like a mule don’t she Joe.

Dan, thanks again for the broadcasted invite. What a great way to spend an afternoon.

We NEED to do it again. We’ll make it on a teacher work day since teachers really don’t do any work on those days (really a teacher/student skip day ). Just kidding, Brian.

I forgot about Jacob’s 700 BDL. Yeh, Joe’s face. Translated correctly=are YOU kidding me? Or better yet=are you KIDDING me? Just spotting for Jacob, the concussion on the side caused me a 10 second lapse just to get my vision back. What a beast! The only safe place around that gun is…….gosh.

We got to do that again. And this time pay attention to the invite, Jack and Greg. You can come too, smore. We need someone to staple targets for us. heh, heh, heh.

For those schedule challenged individuals, just checked and Bull Run has evening hours. Also, their multiple fields can accommodate more than one squad of 5.

3:00pm to 8:00pm on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays
2:00pm to 8:00pm on Fridays

A round of skeet or trap is $4.75 a head.

I remember specifically that the word I used started with a letter that SOUNDS like “d”. But that is okay, Dan. You were right wearing that “fashionable” pad. I didn’t shoot Jacob’s beast so my brusies came from the M1D or that funny little Russian gun of Joe’s.

I might want to be fashionable myself next time Dan so remember to bring the spare.

Yup, it was the 700 that put the hurting on me. The others were like pea shooters in comparison.

I can imagine. My .308 carbine with factory ammo is like that too. My 3.0-06 is pretty tame in comparison..

He put Korean ammo in a Remington 700 ?

That’s about as cheap as you can get..

Dan left out the guns that I believe did the bruising-shotguns. And they only bruise sensitive people. You know, people with “feelings”.

Dan, I ain’t bringing out the 03A4. It is pristine/museum quality and I’m not running any ammo thru it. If you can find a shooter somewhere I’d like to give it a try.

Act, if you mentioned you had an 03, I missed that.. I would not shoot a pristine antique either.. What else you got under the bed ?

Per the shotguns, your comment is likely true. There are differences between a field gun, and a sporting clays gun. Field guns are made to carry all day, and shoot a little. Clays guns, are made to shoot all day, and carry a little. They are typically heavier, weighing up to 1.5-2 pounds more than a field gun. As I recall, 1lb of additional weight, reduces shotgun recoil by 10%. There is a noticeable difference in recoil between my o/u, and my pump with the same load. The barrel porting helps out too..

Jacob, a sweet piece like your Remington 700 deserves a quality diet..

Jack, sorry, senior moment, missed your link..

Wild looking action on this rifle. What work has been done on it ?

Jack,
Would love to give it a try as long as it isn’t one of these “home-built-basement-conversion” jobs!

(The original Gew.1889 was, obviously, unsuited for conversion, as the 45k+ chamber pressures of the new round would turn the older design into a clumsily long pipe bomb.)

“Jack! Jack! We named the monkey Jack!”

I just liked the article’s mention of a clumsy pipe bomb. Jacob told me your sense of humor was fantastic but I can’t be sure that I agree with him. To put it another way, the saying goes “if you can’t have fun being serious, you will have painful hemmoroids”. Maybe it was from a fortune cookie. It doesn’t matter. I’m sure you get my drift (the smiley face was a dead give-away you liberal).

So if I buy that AK here or we send it to Katmandu and I buy it there, does that mean that I am still helping to keep the dockworkers in NY on the payroll?

What a stupid question. I make too much money to get debt money from the government anyway. I would have to pay for it out of pocket. And I can’t afford a plane ticket to Katmandu.

ACTivist,

Do not confuse individual welfare with general welfare. Even in a growing economy with rampant job growth, many people are losing their jobs as competition and a shifting economy put companies out of business or require them to reorganize their workforce.
