Shot at this range outside of Dunkirk a few years ago but became tired of repeated safety violations like others opening fire when I'm downrange posting targets.That was it for me. Saw they now did this to the range??? At least the yahoos that fired when I was down range would have had a excuse...
Have a Springfield Range Officer 1911 in 45 that is a great shooting pistol but would be even better with a lighter trigger. It is close to 5lbs maybe a little lighter. Was going to buy the Cylinder and Slide 3.5lb ultra match 5 pc set. C&S said I would need to replace the parts that make up...
After owning the standard P365 for a few years I found I rarely shot it , maybe 3 range visits total. Hard for me to see the sights , yeah I need a new prescription. Tried a G43X with Romeo Zero red dot and did not shoot it as well as I had hoped for. Picked up a P365X at a shop in Anderson a...
My last trip to my secondary range and I see this crater in the cement floor. Glad I was not there when it happened, especially sitting close. This range is actually part of a park and has collectively the most unsafe range "members" of any place I have ever been a part of. They are closed till...
After owning a Ruger LCP II in 380 for almost a year now I decided it was time to try the 22lr version. Fired a few rounds to get the feel of firing it and then tried a few targets to get an idea of the accuracy potential. I was using CCI Mini Mag and shooting from a standing position at 7 and...
Range results using a standing position and two hand hold at 7 yards with Ruger LCP II vs Glock 42. The LCP II was used wtih Aguila 95 and 25 shots and G42 with Remington 95 and 20 shots. The Glock
sights are much better and is easier to get a grip on. If the LCP II at least had a dot front...
Had not fired my Browning SA-22 22 auto rifle in a while and decided just to shoot a box of 50 CCI std. vel. into one target at 50 yards. Kind of sloppy on a few shots and the longer I went the more the scope (2x-7X Leupold) seemed to lose focus , actually it was my eyes losing focus! I tried to...
Decided to fire all 3 of my 380s yesterday. Distance of 7 yards from a standing position - 10 rounds each target with Aguila 95 FMJ.
First up was my Interarms Walther PPK/S. Have not fired this pistol in a while but it ended up shooting about as good as I have ever fired it. Picked this up...
Wondering if there are any gunsmiths familiar with working on the Ruger MK series 22 target pistols - specifically the MKII and original 22/45s that were produced in the same time frame.
What I need is to have my Volquartsen sear and trigger installed - thought about doing it myself but not...
I was shooting at a range outside of Dunkirk , IN on the first of this month and shooting a 357 at the 50 yard position and a couple of positions to my left at the 25 yard position there is a guy shooting a 22 rifle at a spinning metal target. After firing several rounds I look over and this guy...
Picked up this used Ruger LCP II at Gander Outdoors in Ft. Wayne earlier this month for $129.99 - the deal for me was too good to pass up and the least money I ever spent on a handgun. Back in the late 1980s I bought a Ruger MKII and I think it was around $169 at the time new. Range results at 7...
Got a great deal on a used LCP II from Gander Outdoors of all places - the Ft. Wayne store. The only downside was the pocket holster was no longer with the gun. Any recommendations on a good pocket holster would be appreciated.
Marlin 1894 in 44 Magnum from 1978. In decent shape for a 41 year old rifle. Has some marks on the wood and light bluing wear. Not a collector grade piece but a nice range or hunting rifle. Has a scope base installed but can remove it and have the filler screws. I really enjoy shooting the 357s...
I picked up a used Ruger Blackhawk 357 stainless probably 10 years ago and had not fired it except for the one range visit shortly after buying it. It is a 1976 and has the "Liberty" roll mark on top of the barrel. In the last few years open sight were getting harder to see and even thought of...
Picked up my first Glock ever - a G42 , last Nov. off the classifieds here and aside from the gun having malfunctions with Federal 95 FMJ ammo I am really pleased with it. It fits my hand very well and is equipped with the easiest to see sights of all my defensive pistols.
Here are few recent...
After recommendations here I took my Smith 27 down to AllenM to have it drilled an tapped for a scope base. I could not see the sights well at all and the only recourse was to sell it or mount a scope or red dot. Allen had the work done just a couple of days after dropping it off and that even...
Picked up both of these 380s on the classifieds here - the Interarms Walther PPK/S last year and the Glock 42 a few weeks ago.
Shot these two targets last weekend - 30 rounds each target at distance of 7 yards from a standing position. The Glock target has 10 Remington 95 FMJ and 20 Aguila 95...
I've owned several lever actions through the years including a Marlin 1894 44 mag. , Marlin 1895 444 and Model 39 22lr. I traded the big bore levers many years ago but still have the 22s. Then last summer I was able to find a good deal on a Marlin 1894 in 357 and then not long ago I picked up a...
