Not that it has anything to do with anything.

I believe dry fire exercises are good for practicing steady position, aiming, breath control, and trigger squeeze. They are, after all, the four fundamentals of marksmanship.

So, I had a small target set up across the room to practice these things tonight.

How about you? Are you keeping your skills sharp? Or are you just sitting around, watching whatever crap is on TV?

Not tonight...maybe tomorrow.
If I make it out the the range, then I can play for real...if not, I will probably clean my M4 from the last outting and do a few aim and dry fires for fun.

I do a lot more of it since getting an aimpoint

Hitlery Klinton is on CNN right now, if you need a target for your dry-fire session.

I’m at work; I can’t do much beyond pointing my finger at the monitors and saying “Bang!” every few seconds, minutes, etc.

I wonder if that’s legal in Kali?

Tomorrow is my range day, so  I'm training up. Don't shit on me just because we have different live fire schedules.

Just busting your chops man.  I shot about 500 rounds of 223 this past week.  Then I helped teach a two day pistol course this weekend.  I am worn out.
