    Almost forgot how much fun it is....

    Yesterday there was no surf, as in Lake Pacific, so after I closed up my shop I went over to a good friend's home and instead of throwing our boards in a truck and hitting the beach we climbed up on the roof of his house with an AR, a 30-06, and binoculars and shot at ground squirrels on the back forty of his ranch. Though we had no confirmed kills at 300m in a stiff wind, we still had a hoot spotting and shooting.

    Later as we sat having a wonderful dinner his Italian wife had made us while we were "pow-ing" (what his 4 year-old brother calls shooting) I reflected on what a simple pleasure it is that some of us enjoy, and that I need to remember this more often.

    Perhaps this is a silly post, but at very least it will serve to remind me next time I rest on my laurels when I could be out "pow-ing" with a bro.

      Best part of buying that stock is it comes with its own complimentary jar of anal lube! There were several flavors to choose from, regular, hot cinnamon, or bacon. Im a man of danger so I chose Hot cinnamon to use with my bump fire buttstock.

          Just got back from the range with a 22yr old and a 16yr old. We all had a blast. M1A Scout, DW 1911 .45, and M&P 9mm.

          Now this IS fun!

            I went on Weds. last week to the range with a few guns that I had not shot and have had for a long while....
            I had so much fun that I took Thursday off and went back out to the range again with a bunch more guns!It is so easy to forget why we own guns in the first place!

            Weds.vvv I had no pics of Thurs. But I did get to shoot my Garand for the first time and it was awesome!

                Sounds like an awsome time. Nothing beats having a nice elevated "predatorial" view of your targets.

                And personally, if I can't go shooting at least once a week I get anxious!

                  I don't think the Sherrif's coming out to my place. There are 8 residences on this ranch and I know that at least 5 of us shoot regularly.
