Before we went off to a low key belated birthday for TheHog, we spent a little time wringing out the M14s at the Albuquerque PD range for a bit. Nothing special, not enough people to have a real stack or anything, but just a bit of handling to see how the (repaired) scope worked with the new rings and setup.

Enough talk. More pics.

A few notes. Yah, I'm working alone. I had to use plastic riot ammo in the shoothouse to avoid over penetration, so I was working with only one target per room and they only get one round each. But overall I got a good workout (the tires were ALL ROASTING HOT) and as the sun fell, the lowlight training with Jeff really paid off, the X200 and the Millett DMS scope really did a hell of a job, even on a battle rifle.

Thats Hawke (Heather), my SO from the Denver PD in her duty gear with a custom female plate carrier I had David down at Coyote Tactical make for her. This was her first chance to try it out on a big-boy rules range.

Looks like fun you on DPD or just the wife? I like the M14 the only one I have ever shot is Alans and of course it's rock and roll. That is one nice M14.

Is that the scope that died a couple months ago at a Pueblo rifle match?

What was wrong with it and how long did it take to get it fixed?

Yeah, same scope, they had it for about.. oh.. 12 working days or so. I was told 'we didn't find anything wrong, but we're going to send you a completely new unit anyhow.'

Uh huh. So I never found out.
