When are we going to do another shoot?!?! Today's weather has me jonesing for some mag dumps. |
| Stil waiting on the rifle cleaning kit, but fuck I cant take it anymore.... Cant shoot on sat (5yr wedding anniversary) but I am GTG for sunday any takers to joinme in breaking in my first AR??? I have got almost 200 rounds to burn through/ zero in with.... Now if my can of 855 on strippers ever shows up...... |
Got there at 20 till 12 and the line was past the shitters finally got on the line at like 2 the rifle worked very well, only 1 miss feed on 200 rounds and I think that may have been my fault because I didnt seat the round deep enough into the mag.... I did flag the mag however just to make sure its not going to be an issue going forward oh and the POI difference between M855 and the FBI open tip stuff is less than 1/8 inch at 50 ft
|
Well I'm in for whenever lemme know guys, I would think highrock is gonna be packed for the next 2 months because of the beginning of the season lol.....anyone got a farm, and has anyone heard from 98cobra Its like he got that nice pre ban for that low low price and disappeared from the boards...
There must be a secret hidden pre ban section that only the special people with them can go.....must be nice lol |

Name the place. Some of us shoot pretty much every weekend already.  Dan, are you going to be going on weekday evenings now since the days are getting longer? I need some tac range access Sure can! Just give me a day notice so I can re-jigger workload. |

And on that note, the 24th is pretty much going to be blacked out of my calendar. |

Im in for a shoot! Local leo has been harassing me lately so I cant offer the use of my range anytime soon. Just ask your uh.....dancer friends if they have any dirt on uncle leo. I'm sure we can all come to a win/win situation without having to resort to bribes. |

Quoted: Quoted: Awesome, I hope it goes well! You are using your property for recreational purposes.  what about your yard? Suppressed .22 Long Rifle and suppressed 158grn 9mm is fine by me. Anything else is pushing it unless it is around 4th of July when all hell breaks loose up here. I need to host another chainsaw party to clear out the shooting lane, a few trees fell back in October and are blocking my backstop (aka the stump pile). |

Just got back from HRSA, put another 200 rounds down the tube on the build no issues Looks like my 1 round that failed to properly feed was all my doing and total of over 400 rounds down with the only malfunction being a failure to feed on my first build I will take it.

Quoted: Anyone know someone with an abandoned gravel pit? I was thinking about asking around at a few rural places that I know of. It might be a hike for some, but we might be able to get away with more, too... I know of one in Tolland, I'll see if he still owns it. |

I might have a possible place in Ellington but I would need to check. |

if you cant hike in with a rifle and a box of ammo and mags...
that should thin the herd. I've said it before and I'll say it again, get yor ass in shape. You all wanna shoot a soldiers weapon and use it for self defense? Your body is your first line weapon. Either in fight or flight. If I read another post about who makes the lightest barrels or i want dimpled to save on weight with a weapon in its heaviest from that weighs 9 pounds loaded I'm gonna lose it. Pick up some fucking weights, drop the Dorito bag, take along walk or run, do some calisthenics or core Pilates, and do your self and your loved ones a favor. As far as I'm concerned if you cant handle a 1 mile hike with some gear, or your 6.5 lb rifle with out getting tired your dangerous to me. I'm 53 years old, I can go all day hauling shit, shoot 500 rounds, I just lost 15 lbs in the last 3 months, and can run away from a bad guy if I need to. You young guys got no excuses. Start slow be dilligent build up your reps or distance, and you can get it done. I'm a better shooter now, and my wife digs the results. Double win! |
