The post whore thread.

Don't get me wrong, they were always dead on horizontally but it was definitely vertically challenged.

We then shot my M&P40c for a while and she was getting 1" groups (just off of a 2" orange sticky dot) with each mag at 10yds. I was impressed. Until I nailed the center of it on the first try [Tooth]

Is this same gun the one you're going to buy?

Installing gable vents on the house tomorrow. Hope I don't run into any problems.

Then again, I get to play with a reciprocating saw, what could go wrong?! [Dunno]

Nope, he isn't selling it, just let her borrow it for the day to take to the range and see if she likes the platform. We'll buy new because no one locally has them for under $500. Yes. That LGS that has everything marked up has them for just over $500. At least, last I checked.

I can hit a sheet of paper about 80% of the time with my G19 from 50yds while standing. It took me several thousand rounds and more than 5 years of practice to achieve this. I don't know what your measure of a "decent" group is, but if someone is having difficulty hitting a sheet of paper at "defensive distances" while at the range, I don't want them anywhere near me while they are carrying.

...just my braggy $.02

How long was your range shut down Belly after the stupid kid?

Other than that, did you have a fun and productive range trip?

Agreed. During my 2yr state mandated refresher course (don't get me started), my CCW instructor had me start shooting at 50yds (well, it was closer to 45yds but still) and I was amazed at how well I could shoot. They were mostly within a 6" circle, but hitting the left shoulder when I was aiming for the head.

When I can't do that at 10yds, something weird is going on.

eta: Probably closer to 8", didn't have a tape measure but 6" sounds pretty small and I'm not THAT good of a shooter [LOL]

How's your night going BC?

Getting very lazy. Went to the range earlier, every pistol lane and all general purpose lanes were used. So we left and went to the coffee shop to get some drinks and wait, then we went back and got a GP lane. When we got home, we took dogs on their walks, dinner, and the lots of relaxing.

You? Any exploring in the X?

Oh yea, it got surprisingly warm today, was over 81*F this afternoon. Too hot, too soon.
