Great Day at the Range

[LANShark42]

Went shooting at Sugar Ridge today with my son and nephew. Had a GREAT time. Got to shoot several calibers I've never shot before:
7.62x54R - My two "new" Mosins - M44 and 91/30
7.62x39 - Nephew's AK47
.30 - Nephew's M1 Carbine
.357Mag - Nephew's .357
.44Mag - Nephew's .44mag
Son's Remington 870 Super Mag - 3 1/2 and 2 3/4

along with the various 9mm, .22LR, 44lc and .410 from my other guns. Trouble is, every time I shoot a new caliber, I want that gun.

I took the '9s' and the .45 out to Atterbury yesterday for an hour. I forgot what a hoss my .45 is(acp)....compared to my 9s....I don't shoot it very often. Bet it had been 6-9 mos since I shot it last. Had a blast even thought it rained some.

Saw a father with his son next to me...trying to teach the kid(5 maybe) how to shoot a little .22 pistol right(I could tell it wasn't the kids first trip to the range). Kid was dying to go shoot the 'ar' that was in the rifle case though.

Plan on taking my daughter to the range for the first time on Friday with her new little Cricket rifle.

It is a great place to go, I have been several times. I am glad the state has made this area for us folks who like to shoot, but don't have a good place to go.

You can add another one to the list. Is the M1 and Garand or a Carbine? Neither shoot 7.62x39. The Garand shoots .30-06, the carbine shots .30 carbine.

Got me! You're absolutely right. It was a carbine - .30 cal. Rough gun, but it shot VERY nice. Thanks for the reminder.
