Range day

[wtburnette]

It used to be that I went to the range once or twice a week without fail. Lately, between the new GF and harder classes in school, I've only been able to go a couple times a month. I'm meeting another INGO member at Parabellum today and I'm really excited!

Cool! A range day always makes me happy. Have fun.

Enjoy your day at the range, I think sometimes when we get busy and dont get out like we would like to it makes us enjoy it that much more.

It's been awhile since I threw money down-range. Last time was with my Dad. Took him to Parabellum and introduced him to my Tavor. I swear his head was going to split in half from the grin.

A couple times a MONTH?

That'd be heaven for me, man.

 

[wtburnette]

Thanks everyone, yes I'm really looking forward to going.

TF, that stinks dude! Like I said, I used to go an average of once or twice a week, sometimes more. Now I just can't free up the time, so once or twice a month is all I've been able to do. I would be very unhappy if I couldn't manage at least this much...

Have fun! Any drills/exercises you have planned? Or just a general stress relief from school? Either way you can't go wrong!

TF, that stinks dude!

On one hand it does stink... But on the other hand, I have two really cool kids at home that I (generally) enjoy spending time with. Then there's that one woman who married me (for some reason? It certainly wasn't for my money or my looks.)

Life changes, priorities change, etc etc.

The last time I shot anything was last fall when CountryBoy19 and I met up at my wife's ex-step dad's place and shot for a few hours.

I do have May 4 and 5 off ... I think that I may go to the range at least ONE of those days!

No drills, just stress relief. The person I'm meeting is bringing new stuff for me to shoot, which is always fun!

I understand changing priorities, which is why I don't shoot as often as I used to, or would like. My son is grown and in college but my GF and college courses are taking up more time than they used to. Plus I can't afford shooting as often as I used to...

Have a good time. Time at the range is always fun, especially with somebody who enjoys it as much as you.

Very true!

I need to go as well. I go through phases. For a while I was going at least once a week, but havent been in a while now. I have memberships at both Parabellum and MCF&G as I have a benefit through work that pays for some of these, but lately my time has been getting chewed up elsewhere.

I try to go to the indoor range once a week. Now that the weather is getting better i am thankful that i can walk out the backdoor and have a little range time there.
I also found out that applied ballistics in lafayette has a nice range and lots of rentals, even class 3. I might stop there some time soon

Well, the trip to the range was awesome. Met my fellow INGO member out there (TopDog), who was kind enough to bring 5 different revolvers with a variety of ammo for me to try. That was a LOT of fun

Trying to remember the guns. He had an older GP100 with a 6" barrel, a Match Champion with a 4" barrel, an LCR, all of which were .357 magnum. He also had a Ruger 9mm and a S&W .41 magnum. All were a lot of fun to shoot. I think I liked the Match Champion the best. I haven't shot a lot of revolvers, so shooting them today was very interesting. Also brought my Loaded, Shield and CZ 75B. Excellent time as always.

I wish I had time to visit a range twice a week. I barely have time to go more than a few times a year. I guess I'll have to wait until i retire...
