GUN STUFF

Sporting clays would be a waste of money for a first time out.  You will probably get the most hits with Trap with a decent gun and a few pointers.

Sporting Clays would be fun if you enjoy watching clay pigeons fly/roll away unscathed.

imho


Good on ya for getting out there and introducing the sport to your step son!

I guess I'm a good shot then. Sporting clays was my introduction to shotgunning.

How many did you hit per round the first day?  I would bet you would have done better with trap the firat time.

Dont get me wrong, sporting clays/5 stand are a blast!

I dont shoot trap enough to care about a handicap.  I consistantly shoot 22-24 off the first position with my miraculously fitting Winchester Model 12.  Thats good enough for me.

First few times shooting sporting clays shot consistant 14s.  Used a buddys over/under.  Humbling.

Picked up a Browning Buckmark .22 used yesterday and ran it through its paces today. Very nice shooter!  Light trigger, good balance, near zero recoil and excellent cost per shot. Sent at least 300 rnds down range. Very accurate.

On a semi related note, I'll be selling off a Bersa Thunder 380 to pay for this one. Looks like I need to figure out how gunbroker works.

Lots of pics.  Require payment via postal money order.  Know your state laws.

Ok after constantly answering questions on my YT channel (The NFA Review Channel - YouTube) on the legalities of firearm silencers I figured I would just do a video on it! lol

More info has been added to the description below the video. If you see a typo or want me to add something please let me know.

I hope you enjoy the video. If you have a YT account leave a comment under the video. Thanks!

I did better with the sporting clays than I did with the skeet. There were 3 birds per station. I missed on on the first station only hit one of two rabbits and missed two that went over head from behind me. All others were hits. I suck at skeet. 50% shooter there.

I watch your youtube videos all of the time. These videos helped me make up my mind to get a suppressor.  Thanks!

I didn't watch the whole suppressor video since I've already been through the process, so I apologize if any of this is redundant....

Supposedly the ATF has hired temps to handle some of the clerical work and free up the examiners.  However, apparently they have been kicking back trusts and forms for spacing and other minor discrepancies that they were previously signing off on.

I heard some had previously passed forms with intentions stating "Zombie Apocalypse," etc.  I know this because some moron posted on our regional gun forum that his was kicked back for this, recently.

Anyway, Tony Rumore isn't taking on any more SBS builds for 2 years....http://kitup.military.com/2012/08/tromix-is-good-people.html#more-20297

Good clean all American fun!

Reminds me of last weekend at my buddy's ranch in west TX for the opening of dove season. Dove hunting was a little light so on Sunday we all spent the day at the stock tank shooting at the berm we built last year. The tank was dry from draught last year and we rented a small bulldozer and used my friend's Case tractor with a front end loader and box blade to clean out and enlarge the tank. We use all the extra dirt to build a proper shooting berm 12-15' high and a good 40' long. 

Last Sunday was a full day of shooting. There were 10-12 shooters going in rotation for most of the day. I had ISPC cardboard on stands as well as Artnzen steel targets to plink at. One of the rat pack brought his supply of Tannerite and we damn sure had some fun with that! Nothing like good friends, holiday weekend in the country, guns, good food and drink, dove hunting and explosives... does it get any better?

You have to be careful, some are not well designed for it, and you're really stuck with one setup with it.  MacMillan has some that are adjustable for grip angle (I think it was macmillan)
