Gun Owning Smokers

[CptnBlues63]

Getting drunk tonight and smoking a hex from the last trade, headed to the range in the morning.
Friend of mine wants to shot his webley mark 3 revolver that we worked up a load for and i want to work on my hangover shooting skills. nothing like a 300 win mag going off with a hangover.
God i hope we do not blow up a 130 year old gun, we were a little drunk when we loaded the ammo.

Any time you are down this way let me know i am always up for a range trip.

Hope you had a good time at the range! How'd the Webley stand up to the loads?

I'm hoarding 2 of those Hex's, saving them for summer when it's warm out and I can sit on my deck in the sun and sip sweet tea and take my time with it. I'm also looking forward to a range trip when it warms up and the snow melts!

Right back at you btw..........if you're ever this far north, just call and we'll go smoking/shooting.

Well i keep doing stupid stuff.

I had a brain fart and decided i need one of them new pellet guns to shoot in the back yard.
I had bb guns my entire life and kind of missed plinking away with them in the yard.

They are not toys any more i went with a crosman phantom 22 cal and the damn thing shots threw my crossbow target and dint's the hell out of the hard plastic trashcans.
I am fairly sure my ass is grass the ricochets from the trashcan behind the target were pinging off the wife's car parked on the other side of the yard.
Now that i read the instructions i find out they make 2 versions of this gun one that is 450fps for Canada and this one is up to 950fps for the USA.

Yep printed right on the box 950fps maybe i need to start reading before i jump in. that is almost what a 22 short travels at.

LOL

I think we've all been guilty of not reading thoroughly enough from time to time.

A buddy of mine tells the story of shooting his new pellet rifle in the house into a cardboard box leaning against his front door. He pulled the
box away to discover they went right through it and stuck in the door. He had some explaining to do to his wife.......LOL

Here's hoping there are no marks on the car!

Our snow is melting fast so I'm hoping to be able to get down to the range to shoot in the next couple of weeks. I have a scope to mount
in the mean time so I think I'll take care of that this weekend!

Picked up a new gun again.

TAURUS MODEL 85 REVOLVER .38 SPECIAL +P 2” in stainless steel.
Its small enough that my wife may shoot it so i am thinking it will be her truck/car gun.

Started collecting parts for a new AR pistol build after i found a lower i forgot about till i was cleaning out gun cabinet looking for a holster i misplaced.
Other than that all i have been doing is collecting reloading supply's.

I am back on gun restriction again also. she said something about i have a problem when i cant pass up a deal on a gun and she also wanted to know how many guns i actually need.
Apparently all of them is not the correct answer.

38 Special +P. Nice gun!

How many guns do you need, Gregg?

Apparently 1 less than i have.
After the news today she is really thinking she wants the 38 for her car, so i am back on her good side again.

Mangy, I think your disease is contagious. I walked in to sports authority today to check out their going out of business sale. Walked to the back because I saw some guns, wasn't expecting much. Got there and found that all of their guns and ammo was 20% off normal prices. Walked out with a Tikka T3 Lite in 300 WSM for $599 and a Taurus Model 65 .357 with a4 inch barrel for $359.
