Default Fast Draw Fun In The Back Yard

I found this Daisy BB gun at the flea market last Sunday. $5. Maybe it will work. It did! Now I fool around with fast draw on the patio. The cardboard box cathes the BB's. I stand 5 1/2 yards away and shoot from the hip. Sure it's super close but I go for speed and accuracy. I think I'm at around .75 of a second based on when I got by butt whipped at a fast draw club once. This gun has a very heavy spring and is very innacurate except for point shooting like this. Just reliving my youth, folks.

Hard to believe that "Fast Draw" was once a national pastime. Wasn't it in the late 50's that it had well over a 100,000 participants?

p.s....

Wyatt....Nice self-portrait!!!!

Some guys have all the luck. I have wanted one of those since I was a kid, and for the same reason too. I ended up using my S&Ws instead.

WEAR SAFETY GLASSES!!
One of my Grandsons is the proud owner of a new "Red Ryder" BB rifle.
Rule #1- WEAR SAFETY GLASSES.
When I was growing up Kids really did shoot their eye out from ricochets.
