What did you shoot in the last couple of days?

[Andyd]

I had just taken a few guns to the range to function check and sight them in.

The classic trio of American match pistols: S&W 41, High Standard "The Victor", Colt Match Target. While the S&W 41 and Colt "ate" Aguila Standard Velocity, The Victor did not chamber them ( like my Hammerli 208) and did well with CCI Standard.



Clockwise: Weihrauch HW9, FN International Medalist, Manurhin PP in .22 l.r., FN 10/1971 in .32 ACP, and a Manurhin PP Sport.



The biggest surprise for me was the FN 10/1971, after all the 1910/22s that were disappointing, this one shoots really well! The HW 9 is a sleeper and great target revolver, too.

I have fired my M41, my 627-8 and my black powder sennaca 45cal rifle at the range in the last few days. They are all fun to shoot. Maybe to-morrow I will shoot my 1966 annie. Bolt action repeater.

 

[Valmet]

Took two of my Glock 19s to the range this AM along with a Ruger Mark IV Target and my Glenn Custom 1911 .38 Super. Getting to be time to re-up on my .38 Super so the RCBS is calling my name.

 

[OLDSTER]

I had some fun with the Tokarev today ( this is a Korean War vintage Chi-Com Model 54). It always gets attention at the range with its unique muzzle flash and loud BOOM. !!

Recent range visit. I was shooting my Model 41 with a new Bushnell TRS-25 red dot that my lovely wife gave me for Christmas. I had an issue with the Weaver mount and their very short (too short) mounting screws but I have sorted that problem out and also shortened the length of the mount to fit the size of the scope. Next up is my Norinco M1911-A1 lower with a Marvel Precision Unit#2 .22 Conversion Unit upper. I generally shoot this one pretty good but I was having issues with the GSG magazine feeding so I guess I need to sort that out. Last up was the Norinco .45ACP top end on the lower. This one shoots very well.

This morning, I shot:

 

[Qc Pistolero]

Yesterday was spent with my High Wall in 38-55.Today was spent shooting my Winchester model 64(30-30)and my Sharps in 45-70.
I'll cheat a bit and tell you that tomorrow will see me at the range with my Dan Wesson .44 Mag,that is if I'm still living.At my age,you never know!
Oh I almost forgot;all these are shot with my own brewed,cast bullet rounds.

 

[Andyd]

I went to the range to test and sight in a few guns. The FN Medalist International had misfired a few times at the last visit. So I cleaned the firing pin channel and the gun performed as flawless as I expect from it.
Then I shot a Manurhin PP since it is so long that I had taken a PP in .32ACP to the range.



Alright, that is when I switched to serious guns.

A Sphinx AT2000 S, SIG P210-4 and a Nowlin 1911 in 9mm. All where shooting well enough and I did not get hammer bitten by the P210-4 but regretted that I had not removed the magazine safety; the trigger was noticeably worse than on the P210 without it.

The trigger on the Sphinx is light years ahead of the CZ 75 SP-01 that I have in my safe!

 

[Buford57]

BHP and R51. Not quite the opposite ends of the 9mm spectrum, but close.

 

[Andyd]

Time well spent

I sighted some rimfire guns in and then went shooting with the Walther PP to burn a few boxes with double taps.

The High Standard Space gun was a very pleasant surprise! It shoots really well. As also during the last range visits, I had some shots of the Aguila Standard not go off the first time in the S&W M17-5, Walther PP, PP Sport, and High Standard but besides that, the ammo is shooting really well.

 

[AzShooter]

I got out my 617 and fired a few hundred rounds with no troubles at all. It was a mix of Federal BYOB, Remington Golden Bullets, CCI Blazer and SV.

This gun has a nice action and a new Apex Tactical Mass Drive Hammer that lets me get the action down below 7 pounds and it's still reliable.

Thursday, I put 20 rounds thru the 642 in my avatar and 25 thru my 4013 to stay in practice then helped my buddy by letting him use my 22 suppressor on his new Taurus 17 rd semi auto. We burned thru 3 50 rd boxes of 22. My crystal ball sees a 22 suppressor in his future.

 

[Chubbo]

By necessity

I'm sorry to say, the breeze only. At 88+ years, I've lost my ability to shoot anything else. I'm not complaining, just commenting. I have enjoyed shooting from around age 6, after earning $6.00 to buy my first firearm, a .22 youth rifle, that was missing it's sights. I also earned the 25¢, a box for ammo, that I bought at the hardware myself. I also replaced the sights myself.

I sure miss shooting my firearms! All of you folks do it, all that you can, while you are able!

Well, as this is under "Other brands", this morning I did shoot my Gold Cup .45 ACP. I also shot two rounds of skeet with my 20 gauge Belgian Browning Auto 5.

As for Smiths, along with the Gold Cup I had the 17-6 and the new (to me) 27-2 8 3/8ths nickel.

All in all a pretty good day!!
