Title: Gun Control
Post by: BilltheDiver 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!

Gun control is all about hitting your target.

That's why I like to shoot clay pigeons.(trap shooting)
I don't have to clean and eat the birds.

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

I shot in a tournament once where we were shooting into the wind and the wads and chips of the clay would come back at us.  We made two calls....PULL !!!   .......DUCK !!!!  :D

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!
