RocketMan, 280plus, Brian,
I will try to be good. PAX told me this is the kinder, gentler side of THR, and that I would like it here.
Bill,
If it goes boom, I have shot it, will shoot it, or shoot it now.
Lately my shooting has been confined to;
.45, my CCW is a Ruger P90. ( I retired my 93 year old 1911 when I bought the Ruger)
.22, I have a Ruger 22/45 (a Christmas present from my wife a couple of years ago), and my dads German SA.
12 guage, for ducks from a Benelli Nova pump, or my 870, and for grouse a Winchester 101 upland special, (together we got a double, once).
I also shoot 30.06, 03A3 Spingfield (yes it was sporterized but still shoots moa).
.38 spcl, .357, from a 2" EAA Windicator, a sometimes CCW.
9x18 Makarov, a Bulgie.
.410 single shot, just for the fun of it and because it is a great way to introduce new shooters to shotguns.
I recently bought my best friend's Ruger Blackhawk in .41 mag from his widow. I will be shooting it this summer. He and I enjoyed shooting this hand gun so much that I had to have it, it is without a doubt, the most accurate revolver I have ever fired.
Yes, I am thinking of starting to reload!!! I am also thinking that wheels on my range bag wouldn't be a bad idea.
Most of my shooting lately has been punching paper, a little trap, some duck and grouse hunting. I also occasionaly gun for field trials.
As you can see, I like guns and shooting.
I have 4 grand daughters, and the oldest, soon to be 19, smart and gorgeous, is becoming my shooting buddy. The 11 year old is still not quite mature enough, she only seems able to remember 3 of the 4 rules, and never the same 3, when I quiz her. Although, when I have her help me in the kitchen, she handles the knives safely and surely. Maybe this summer is the time to take her out. I think she will enjoy it and will be good.
The other 2 are 3 and 5.
I do believe that grand daughters are put on earth to make old men feel important again.
Enough about me, what do you shoot?
DM
PS thanks for the welcome, and Brian, I fell for that "New Guy" thing on THR.
