and it was a blast. Been going to pistol ranges (like Shooter's Shop) for years, but finally got my AR-15. Went down to McMiller's with my wife and BIL and tried out the 25 yd range. Wow what a great time we had. Nice range officer showed us the ropes, good overall experience.
Used the iron sights and found out just how hard it is to see where bullet meets paper downrange. Groups weren't so great, but that wasn't the goal of today's excursion. Before we began shooting, someone there commented "that thing looks brand new!!" Yup, it was, never been fired. Always nice to break in a new rifle. Next time I'm going to bring that shotgun of mine I've never shot and bring some slugs to put down range. Fun times! |

Oh we had a blast. I was surprised my wife took to the AR-15. She was always scared just looking at my shotgun. But the AR, one shot and she was hooked. I may have to get another one for myself now.
Ordered 600 more rounds of .223 today. Must......go.......back........to............range, too...........fun. |
