Gun Control
« on: April 06, 2012, 02:19:56 pm »
I'm going shooting in the Everglades with my family Saturday.  I hope to exercise proper gun control by hitting the targets!

Have a Good Easter weekend everybody!

Enjoy your shooting, is it target shooting or hunting?

Gun control is all about hitting your target.

Hi Judy, those darned clays are tough. Too tough for an old fart like me, I clipped the edge of one and the rest of it smacked me in the face and knocked out two front teeth which I had replaced for Christmas. LOL

Gun Control:  Being able to hit your target with the first shot - consistently.

We had a ball.  We built a target stand of pvc and 2X4's and lined the top rack with pie pans and the bottom one with pizza pans from the $ store.  Shot up everything including the pvc.  Safety first of course, especially with the 2 Grandson's in tow.  Karl, we were at Pop's near Holiday Park.  Not too concerned about the snakes as I relocate the diamondbacks on MacDill as a routine part of my job.  Guess I am just used to them.  I hope everybody had as much fun this weekend as we did!
