This was my umpteenth time doing this class, and I’ve learned every time. The evolution of the regulars’ gear has always been interesting, especially since a lot of the same conclusions are reached.
I’ve accepted as of last night I may be done with iron sights. There were times when I could not see the front sight without way too many seconds wasted maneuvering the light, or maybe not even then. I’ve said for at least three years that a red (or green) dot was going to be a necessity soon and that time may be here. And not just for low/no light.
Using a revolver at night is a *****. I had to try it one more time after flailing last year. I was only slightly better this time. It’s fun, in a way, but it’s also far from a good choice let alone the best one.
It was good seeing the Rhino again after a long dry spell.
Once again the night was a great exchange of thoughts, ideas, and bodily fluids. I think all left satisfied.
Looking forward to next year.
EDIT: You know what we haven’t done? Shotguns. Just sayin’.
