    Spent the morning with my son out at the range.

    We headed out with a S&W AR22 with Outback II suppressor, Krebs Krinkov AK in 7.62x39, and a boring A2 20" AR-15. The morning was downright chilly and we started off a bit rough when I found out that we left the .22 mags at home:

    That's ok, you can always just single load the AR and save ammo. Here we are running subsonic remington ammo.

    The boy had a good time cranking off rounds, both suppressed and tracers. He also had a belly full of snow, which is fine because it kept him from reminding me about the mags.

    Then I got to spend some time with the AK and AR-15. Not alot as the boy got cold eating snow, but enough time to have fun - and to appreciate the Vortex hoodie I got from AA Optics. It really is warm.

    Anyways, we had fun and will have more when it warms up and there is less snow to eat.

    Hopefully, I will remember to bring 22 Mags the next time. :):

    Been there done that with the forgotten mags! Sucks! Though I found I had better shot placement and went through less ammo..... I need to forget mags more often maybe.

    If my youngens are going they are responsible for the guns/ammo/gear they will be using. That way i can deffer responsibility for equipment that was not packed......:)

    Both jealous and sympathetic. I haven't been shooting at all yet this year, funds are tight for multiple reasons, and I recall packing up 3 rifles, 2 shotguns and 4 pistols for a major range trip, packed up the truck drove 1 hr to tri county range and left the ammo pack on the kitchen table.

    Looks like a fine day you two men had! Kudos to you for taking your son to the range.

    When I saw your pic below, my first reaction was that it could be one of those "terrorist" pictures you find on pads of paper targets! :) In real life, you couldn't be farther from that persona. You're one of the nicest men I know.
