    Just signed up for my first Appleseed class at Raahauges in Corona in November. Then to be prepared, I ordered AR style sights for my Ruger 10/22!

    Tech-SIGHTS, LLC have made it our goal to bring quality, innovative products to the shooting sports enthusiast. We highly value our constitutional right to keep and bear arms. Sharing this heritage with future generations is necessary to preserve our freedom. Thank you for visiting.


    OK, I guess I'm behind the curve, but I hadn't really given this program too much thought until I started hearing about it on calguns. Then a few clicks on the computer and I'm all signed up.

    Really looking forward to it!

Although most of us are in California, this time of year it gets REALLY cold-- and wet-- so here's a little advice I learned from (not quite pleasant) experience, and I'd like to pass on.

      SHOOTING MAT: A rug remnant will work in the summer, but not by itself in the winter. Bring a waterproof tarp or two to place underneath it, as you might be lying down in a puddle. Something to weigh the mats down in case of wind and a blanket to cover up your rifle in case of rain are also great to have.
      Either that, or you can get an awesome shooting mat from MidwayUSA, on sale now for 51% off. http://www.midwayusa.com/product/276...vc=subv1169107

      See y'all at Sac Valley in January!

      Thanks for the advice. I was just going to bring some blankets we had, but on second thought, I know my knees and elbows that those of my family will be thanking me for getting these mats.
