Not much better than having a partner you love, and love doing your hobby with in the little spare time we have in life. Count it a blessing if you have such a deal.

My wife, my son, and I shot for a couple of hours yesterday morning as well. It was a bit windy, but it always is here this time of year. We had a blast. Well, actually a few hundred of them. We shot a varied assortment of pistols and carbines - M&P 9, CZ Rami 9, Sig P938, Taurus PT609, Bersa Thunder 380, TriStar T120, Hi-Point 995, M&P 15 Sport II, and another AR that has a Del-Ton lower with a custom upper, and 2 M&P 15-22s.

I just got back from a training session with my Springer: shot 4 rounds of 16 ga to drop birds she flushed and then retrieved.

Low volume but very satisfying for us both.
 
I made it to the range yesterday and ran a few "new to me" revolvers through their paces. The 2.5" Model 66-1 and 4" Model 31-1 made me want to stay there all day.
 
A new one is getting some back yard time this afternoon ......

My sons and I did today. We took my 2.0 9c to finish breaking it in for carry (275 rds of mix billed weight and profiles, total round count is now 675), Henry Golden Boy in 22mag, and my Dad’s old Glenfield 22. My sons ran the Glenfield, I broke in the Golden Boy and they ran a box each through it. Lastly, I ran the 9c to the point where it is now on my hip instead of my PC Shield 45. When you can ring the 100yd gong 11 out of 15 times with 147gr Win WB fmj, it just becomes your daily carry in a TT Gunleather IWB holster. We had a good time the day prior with my PC 625-8, 442-2, and the GSG 1911-22. I love finding a good gun club when we move to new areas. Montana is going to a blast, literally!
 
test fired my new shield 9 today. (version1.0) 100 rounds of 9mmNATO
got it on sale for $293 cash. ( Lgs trying to make room for the 2.0 shields)

I too enjoy the comradery of shooting with friends at a target range. The banter among us ranges from subtly to downright bawdiness. However, to focus on my handling and shooting techniques, I find that training alone rather than with shooting friends is more beneficial.

Last week I trained alone and spent time on trying to smooth out my technique of shooting single, followed by double tap and then triple tap.

Hit patterns on my first three targets were quite scattered. However, after shooting 150 rounds of FMJ ammo, I shot one last set on a new target placed 7 yards from my shooting position.

I am well pleased with the result.

Concentration is best achieved without outside influences such as jibes by friends about the ineptitude of my shooting ability. Ha, ha, ha (even though it might be true).

Didn't get to shoot. But spent most of the day walking around the deer lease with my son. Saw several deer, 4 turkey, a couple of cranes flying overhead, ducks & a hawk. But alas, no pigs which were the target of the day.

Still was a great day.
 
Every day I walk in the forest with my dog. I bring a different gun and shoot at random stuff while the dog looks for critters.

Here he is working[kind of].. then taking a break..;)

Oh, dear King George! For a moment I thought the dog was the story!
 
Put some rounds thru my SD40VE, FN FNS-9 and my brand spanking new M&P Shield 2.0 40 S&W.
 
My office is moving his week, so I'm "working from home". Took my daughter to the range this morning.

She shot her XD-45, ok, stayed in the black "dad, I need something more manageable", she's petite to say the least.
I let her shoot a K-22, ND 36, 3913NL, 640-1, Sig P239 and a P225A.

I'm trying to decide which of the Sigs I shoot better, juries still out. I needed more distance, she didn't.

"Working from home" again tomorrow ;), more range time !
 
Ever have one of those days?
Shot the M&P Shield 45 today. 60 rds @ 10 yds. standing. Lots of strays, the rest were all over the place! I sure hope I do better nxt week!
