Lighten the hell up and lets talk guns again!!!

It's amazing to me that people still believe in Sasquatch, he would have been shot, stuffed or mounted by now for crying out loud.

I'm pretty sure Sasquatch is bulletproof.

I'm pretty sure Sasquatch is bulletproof.

But is he bugger proof... lotta weirdos runnin' around out there these day.

My attitude about club/range "Vice Presidents" is... "you paid your dues, those schmucks work for you".

I have a similar opinion, but I also know that if some prick in a position of decision making had it out for me, my little range dues would be almost insignificant in the grand scope of things compared to being sent on my way. As much as it is satisfying to let people who are full of themselves know where they can shove it, sometimes it is more satisfying to politely point out that you are better informed or generally smarter in something that they think they are so knowledgeable about.

I can imagine if bigfoot sightings were mostly in Canada where theres 1,000x more trees than people.... but a lot of them seem to be in the PNW and Ohio areas, which makes me doubtful... and even then, okay if there were actual Bigfoots on Vancouver Island, how come no one from Alone tv show reported anything like that in 3 seasons? I mean, you'd think they'd be curious about the lonesome humans making fire and shelters

The only time I want to squint is if my date is ugly.

If they are really ugly, my grandma calls those "double baggers" - which is hilarious to hear out of a little old lady.

That only works on my wife.... ok, not really.

Reminds me of a bad joke. A man was buying condoms at a store, the clerk asked him if he wanted to bag them.. the man said "naw, she ain't that ugly"

We have quite a few of those in our family, enough that I don't know if it would get this thread moved to the place that must not be named.

For example: if a guy is with a particularly large woman, he's environmentally conscious because he's saving the whales.

 

[CamoDeafie]

I haven't a chance to go out shooting yet. Been busy with baby. Been looking for real good deals on AR lower parts kits with brace for the pistol build...

Another bad joke..
A drunk asked two women coming out of a pub in England, "are you two ladies from London?" They replied "bollocks, its Wales!" He asked them "oh ok, are you two whales from London?"
The constabulary found him with broken jaw and cracked eye socket the next day.

And thats it for thread drift lol

I really want to take the 4595ts and see how bad the accuracy is with the Blazer 230gr FMJs...

 

[Ownerus]

It always cracks me up when I hear people say. "I can hit X sized target out to 600 meters with irons"

It shouldn't. 12" bullseye, 600 yds, quite doable. I've done it and I wasn't even one of the GOOD ones. Of course, I was 20 years old with a match M14, spotting scope for doping wind, prone. 46 years later? Probably not. I don't think I could even get in position without serious pain killers. But I HAVE done it so I know it can be done.

In an effort to keep track of what's what, I started a shooting log to document what's been shot, when it was shot, what's it sighted it, etc. Time has a funny way of flying by and before you know it you are scratching your head when the last time something was shot, what it was zero'd out, when it was cleaned last. Figured having a log would make all that no longer a confusion, especially for tracking malfunctions and trying to isolate specific issues.

I'm not making light of the possibility, it takes skill to do, not impossible, but skill. I'm merely saying that just because you CAN do something doesn't mean it's not far easier with magnification. I mean, I've plinked a metal plate at 100 yards with a 9mm glock, after several misses, the point is for me, is that there are things we can do that are also much more easily done with the right equipment. Personally I have been trying to practice my offhand and kneeling shooting more lately, I've been finding it more interesting because it takes more focus for me to be able to hit the target.

 

[Ownerus]

That was the National Match course, about 1973. Hitting a 12" bull at 600 yds with iron sights was almost routine.

Semper Fi.h

 

[CamoDeafie]

Maybe the military should conduct combat accuracy tests by combining the national match ranges with the "tactical course" ranges.. and have a requirement of wearing full battle rattle/782/ta50 gear and having just done a 5 mile road march at a quick pace... ? I mean, we know of the 3 gun competitions and the "tactical defense carbine" courses; but those are by and large designed for urban close range engagements right; and not for medium-long range enagements..

 

[rick benjamin]

Kinda like Seattle?

 

[titsonritz]

An old belted rifle round most commonly used in break open rifles, double rifles and known for hunting African big game

Actually the 375 H&H gained popularity in Mauser bolt actions in direct competition to double barrel break action rifles cambered in rounds like 470 Nitro mag as a more affordable option.

 

[Firemansim]

Love my G20, but my new toy is the AR!

 

[11Charlie]

Yeah politics is for sissies, what's your favorite Microstamping capable Cali approved pistol?

Don't own one.

Challenge accepted!

ALL BLACK GUNS MATTER!!

HAHAHA I knew that you would!!

 

[11Charlie]

more easily done with the right equipment.

This!! I have no desire to try to hit even 200 with iron sights. Mainly because I don't have to
