Took the day off work and went to the range today. Don't forget to take time to go and put in some work at the range. Don't forget your sunscreen, you troglodytes. pistol drill |

Thanks OP!
I left some massive craters with 5.56 the other day...I'm gonna build a better backstop this weekend |

Guns aren't for shooting, they are for spending way too much money on and then cramming in a safe.

Shot twice this week. A gallery match Tuesday night, and a 50ft handgun match last night. May go clays shooting tomorrow.

I recently went shooting and it became apparent that my skills had begun to degrade after a long break. I need to start going more often.

It is a glock factory mag with a taran tactical +5 base plate. It just started doing that this year. It's getting relegated to training use only until I get a new spring. It happens on occasion with other new magazines, which is an issue with my grip as well... so I just have to deal with that. |

I shot pistols yesterday. Just 80 rounds of .22 and about 45 rounds of 9mm.

I really need some property to shoot on.

I destroyed 20 Alabama red clay dirt clods last weekend with 20 175 grain gold metal match rounds. That's a buck a clod @pre-clown world prices. I hate dirt clods and will get them all!

Did some rounds on the heavy bag and then did some dry fire drills afterwards. I'm definitely planning on actually hitting the range next week, it's been too long.

Shooting proficiency is a perishable skill. I learned that at the last Gamut Resolutions class. Shoot early, shoot often. Like voting in Chicago!

Every now and then you need to unplug to recharge. Funny how that works, huh?

I can't afford to shoot

I went to the range today to shoot my new M&P 10mm
|
|
|
I shot my AK build Monday, ran flawlessly.
Put a few magazines through my carry pistol and a .22 as well. Can’t be a good shot if you don’t shoot! |

Shot the first time this year last week.
Used to shoot every weekend and a couple of nights a week in the summer. I travelled all over going to classes and fun shoots |
|
|
OP is correct. Like anything important in life, you have to make time and a budget to do it.
I shoot weekly. Even if I had no ammunition I would perform dry-fire exercises supplemented with shooting a pellet gun towards the goal of making smaller and smaller groups at longer and longer distances. |

I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy Glock and thy AR15, they comfort me.

I shoot in a pistol league every week. I missed 4 weeks in a row, which almost never happens, and I actually shot pretty good last night.
|
|
|
I’ve been twice in the last two weeks. Previous to that, not nearly enough. And it shows. Plan on shooting a lot more in the next few weeks to get my mojo back.

Shot a mag from my G17 yesterday. Its nice being able to grab a gun and shoot off your deck whenever the mood strikes.

I have somewhere I can occasionally go luckily and just shot a few hundred rounds Saturday but I miss living on property and shooting whenever I want Need to make better use of my range time with some drills or purpose but blasting can be fun. |

Still recovering from knee surgery and had the itch. Grabbed a basic Savage 64 and cracked open a brick of Federal Automatch. Slapped on a Simmons and my son zeroed it in. Stepped onto the front porch and started making holes in stuff.
Tomorrow I'll have coffee on the front porch with this rifle. That brick will probably not last the weekend |
