shooting
Shooting is the act or process of discharging a projectile from a ranged weapon (such as a gun, bow, crossbow, slingshot, or blowpipe). Even the acts of launching flame, artillery, darts, harpoons, grenades, rockets, and guided missiles can be considered acts of shooting. When using a firearm, the act of shooting is often called firing as it involves initiating a combustion (deflagration) of chemical propellants.
Shooting can take place in a shooting range or in the field, in shooting sports, hunting or in combat. The person involved in the shooting activity is called a shooter. A skilled, accurate shooter is a marksman or sharpshooter, and a person's level of shooting proficiency is referred to as their marksmanship.
My regular glasses have the curved bow design. I'm looking for straight bow prescription shooting glasses. Headache prevention & comfort. Need a safe place to do business with online. Recommendations please! Thanks
Can't tel what this is. Wounded three so must have reloaded unless this is a semi auto? Too bad London police don't have guns. The criminals don't obey the laws.

Note: This is the one where that nut job brought their kid to the shootout. And you will see the child on the ground in this video, albeit they blur his face/head. But if you don't want to see that, then you should probably skip the video.
With that said...my first reaction to this is that...

I live on Hayden Island in North Portland. Where would be the CLOSEST area I can go target shooting outdoors (not English Pit). OR or WA. ... I also have a 20 ft Zodiac and I can travel or even shoot from this boat. Is there a place on the Multnomah Channel I can shoot ? I am told just NOT...
Just wondering, besides making a special trip to the range with family and friends.
How do you train and maintain yourself starting with what kind and how much (in quantity) ammo do you spend a month?
Initially I use to blow ammos in the range like a mad man. Now I have to put myself in a...
I wasn't sure just where to post this, but maybe here? Maybe also the Ukraine thread?

Seems like a decent deal for Oakley knock offs. Lowest price ever and includes a hard case.

Those first shots from pass side are into a steep dirt hill. Not sure if the later shots from drunk drivers are into a hillside but I think so. So my guess is the shooting looks bad on video (and of course is stupid) but really is into a dirt hillside. Police plane with night vision video of...
Two poeple shooting at each other? Other? Says multiple people shot.

I am looking for a range somewhere near Portland. I live in outer N.E. and the folks I want to target shoot live in inner N.E. Portland, outer S.E. Portland, Independence and St Helens. In the past I was going to the English Pit in Vancouver but they raised the price to $23 a person and the...
I have three sets of shooting sticks brand new in the package. Each is priced separately but I’d be willing to negotiate price if you buy all three sets.
