    Raahauges did get expensive. I was going every weekend for a while but then they upgraded their system of counting their clays. It used to be you just wrote stuff down on a piece of paper. Now they have the things that count it every time you push the button. So if you have a jammed loader and you push the button 4 times to get a good clay to come out, you get charge for every click. I wasn't happy the last time I shot skeet there. My normal day of 60 ish dollars ended up costing me a couple hundred. If I had known that's how I was going to be charged I wouldn't of kept clicking to get a good clay out of certian stations.

    That's unfortunate. But with anything that's made in this world there are going to be defective products..

    I've had my 500a for 8 years. I've put a lot of shells through it at the skeet range but never cleaned it until last weekend.. It kept going like a champ.. Though after the cleaning it feels brand new again.


    Oh Warguy. Nice avatar.. But my bike is better.

    (Just kiddin) I respect all 2 wheels.. Just gotta poke fun once in awhile.

      Maybe.. I can't say for sure what I'm doing that weekend or if funds will allow me to go shooting again this month. This weekend is the gun show in Ontario and I'm heading there to see if there's anything cool I can pick up for either of my 2 toys. That and I'll be crewing for a team in Fontana at the drag races over Memorial day weekend so that will take some funds away as well. =( Damnit.. I need more money and less bills
      Ya i got it around 3pm so i can pick it around that time!! And i totally forgot about the gunshow this weekend! i was totally planning on going but forgot, but now that i remember ill be there so maybe ill see you there.

      Ya is that the combo that was 289? I was thinking of getting that one but after dros and taxes it would be like 250 so i figured what the hell i really liked this camo one and it came with a choke already and it fit my budget a little better. But I was definitely considering that combo first also.

            I used the 100 yard rifle range there during the week for $30. but I thought that was for 4 hours. Anyway I was finished and left in less than 2 hours so I could be wrong. What I did appreciate is the guy running the rifle range spent a lot of time getting me set up and giving me advice on home defense style shooting, as well as spending time correcting some of my bad habits.

              Sucks you have to wait till 3pm to pick it up.. So saturday shooting might be out.. Lytle Creek closes at 4 and I'm not sure how long Raahauges or Prado stays open. You might have to wait till Sunday the 22nd =(

              I'm not sure when I'm heading to the gunshow.. I know I'm going to my buddies then heading over there beforehand..

              I've never been into the stunt thing.. I can watch it, but don't want to wreck my bike. =) I have a 07 R1. Candy Apple red. I'm sure you've seen me around town.. I used to ride it everywhere. I've been being lazy a lot lately and driving me F250 around.. (That's easy to spot.. It looks like an urban assault vehicle) Lifted.. huge bumpers.. ect..

              This site is pretty cool. Everyone has different preferences in firearms and for the most part even if someone wouldn't buy the same one you did they will still say that all that matters is what you like.

                      What a beauty. I just picked up my first shotty a couple of days ago as well. I'm itching to take her out sometime soon.
