Hey, speak of coincidences - I traded a couple and sold a couple bought a  new EC9s Ruger (not sure what the dif is to the LC9s) I hope to get to the range if the weather cooperates.  When I lived in Summerville SC we were able to shoot in the backyard but I worked so much it was hard to find

I wish I could shoot off the back deck... I went over to the range today, took the .54 muzzle loader, I'd carried it though hunting season and wanted to discharge. Fired 5 shots (the loaded one plus the 4 reloads I carried) and kept all the shots on the paper offhand at 50 yards, I was

How true. I would probably shoot on an almost daily basis if I could do it on my property. -D > On Jan 1, 2019, at 6:05 PM, Curley McLain via Mercedes > wrote: > > Nice to be able to do that in the backyard. > > Buggered Benzmail via Mercedes wrote on 1/1/19 1:37 PM: >> Daughter unit set

I should have gone to the range over the holidays, dang it. I’m having too much fun with the finnie. We’re shoveling sunshine with temps at an unseasonable +80F or thereabouts. Been that way all week and appears that it will continue into the weekend. Guess I’ll need to make getting the

Daughter unit set up a target out off the back deck so we went at it with her Browning.22 target pistol and my .380 M Bodyguard and Ruger LC9s 9mm. The Browning is a great pistol, I really like it. Very tight groups. Might have to get one. She got it barely used, a real good deal. The .380 is
