Any shooters here?

When a guy named Speedball asks about shooters.........

( I kid)

Yep, I love to crank off a few rounds from time to time, mostly plinking, but I have toyed with the idea of taking up summer biathlon (Hey, it's multi-sport)

When I lived in Phoenix some friends and I would head to the desert every few months and blow off some rounds and smell the gun powder.    Glock....there is no substitute (only other preferences)  

I was a marksmanship in the military. Let me tell you there is no better stress relief than shooting off some rounds down field.

Shot a few rounds with my 30-06 to zero it in for the hunting season, and then the deer didn't cooperate and throw themselves in front of the barrel.  I swear the deer in south Texas are like damn ninja's.  I go trail running around here and I all but collide with them, but down there I sit 3 hours in an enclosed stand a hundred yards away from a feeder and the few that I do see spook if I even shift my weight.

I've got a Hi Standard .22 Supermatic auto loader, 6-3/4" barrel, 10-round magazine, & custom left-hand grips.  Like to visit the indoor range once a month or so. Good stress reliever.

Try to shoot as often as I can either at the local indoor range or my (somewhat impromptu hokie) outdoor combat range. Mostly small autos, novelty guns, some modifieds. Bought a new M-11 yesterday and yes as they were completing the paper work I asked if I could also get a case of 9mm and a ski mask. Always get some strange looks.

 I believe a person can't have enough guns,and you should  always have one within arms reach,  Remember, when guns are outlawed only cops will have guns.

I have a Colt Gvt M1911 .45 Hmmmmm I Love it!

but I also LOVE to shoot trap but I prefer dove or quail!

Marine Corps still has a few... I would bet the Navy does. They stand guard duty with M14's!

I would never trade my .45 for a 9MM. The M1911 is way to reliable and effective to give up.

I actually herd the military was considering going BACK to the .45, not the M1911 but a more modern .45 like a Sig or Glock.
