Lunch at the club

A new gun club just opened up about two miles from my house. It is awesome.
Top of the line facility, private room for members, wireless access, flat screens, cleaning counter with everything you need to clean your gear, lockers.

Since it is so close, I will be spending a lot of lunch hours there; and working from there! Why not?

Today results.
Everything was shot with the target at 25 yards.

Each grouping is one magazine.
The XDM 9 is new to me, but I REALLY like the ergo's on this thing. It is taking some getting used to with the trigger, but I REALLY like it. A lot. Never been able to say that about combat tupperware.

Yes, that is the FN version of the SCAR. Get one for yourself. No zombies are making it down my drive way.




And yes, I do take pics of my groupings every time I practice. I used to go shoot at the very least, once a week. But once I moved my office, I couldn't do that anymore. Then this gun club opened up two miles from my subdivision... and oh baby... It's on. Again.

Sadly, this is the first time in roughly 8 months I've gone shooting? Maybe more? Time flies.

Speaking like a Californian who doesn't like guns.

Zombies, of course.

LOL!

Preparing for?

Well... I happen to love shooting! It is actually a very fun, precise sport, or activity. It satisfies and stimulates me mentally and physically! I'd call that a win.

Now... if some damn zombie came a callin, he's toast. The trigger on that Roma AK is SWEET. In each of those AK circles, there are 20 rounds of ever lovin 7.62 goodness, iron sites.

The SCAR, with that optic on it, would make pink zombie mist from many, many, many, many football fields away.

I've been a lifelong shooter. It is was something I "focused on" (pun intended) in the military. I'm a 30 year martial artist, firearms are a martial craft.

Preparing for? Nah... Just enjoying an activity!

No different than our shared predilection to fine auto's.

Oh... and what you see there, no even the half of it... Those are just what I haven't shot in a while. And one new one that I hadn't shot at all until today (XDM 9mm).

Some buy watches, expensive jeans... you get the point.

Brian,

You forgot that smoking lives in a state that gave us Pelosi, Boxer, and Feinstein.

All three are for the permanent reinstatement of the Federal AWB.

I hope to God that Boxer is sent packing. She has a new ad showing a picture of an AK and how evil Carly is for opposing the federal AWB.

Ah...

Good points.

Those idiots who want to piss on the Second Amendment need to understand that gun control is actually proper site alignment and picture, combined with proper trigger squeeze. They'd do well to remember that.

I wish we had the right to bear arms in Canada. But we don't.

No such thing as having too many weapons for a law abiding citizen IMO. Awesome post!
