Im going to try and talk a friend of mine out of his old 1919 Remington model 8 in .35 Remington.
Safety is very similar to the AKs. Very cool old rifle and the 1st semi auto mass produced to the public.

Took me many attempts and rejected orders over the past several months to actually close on a Glock 19x. Did things a bit out of order by buying a Tier 1 Concealment holster (for not only the 19x but a 19x with an Inforce APLc) back in October? so this has been a long time coming.

Actually got to do a little shooting today. Went to a private range with one of my friends.
The good - finally got to run my two newest pistols, a Walther PPQ .45 and a Sig P365XL, hard. Concealment holster/rapid firing at multiple targets. We had some steel targets as well, including a plate rack, which I hit pretty good. Probably ran about 500 rounds through those two and my primary carry CZ. That was a blast. The bad - it seems age has finally caught up with my distance vision. The AR I brought only has a MRO optic on it (no magnification), and at 50 yards, for the first time in my life the target was just a little round blur in the distance. I didn't shoot bad, but I couldn't get the consistent, tight groups I always have in the past. Kind of depressing; getting old sucks. I guess I'll be bringing the scoped AR for any sort of distance shooting in the future. All in all, though, a nice day. Cool, sunny and dry. Hell, it was nice just getting out of the house. |

I am now the proud owner of a Glock 17 Gen 4 MOS that has a Burris Reflex Red Dot optic installed. I am looking forward to zeroing in that Red Dot in a couple of weeks.

I bought a Taurus Judge first to defend myself. Then I learned to shoot and got a Sig Sauer P 238...Not the girl you want to sneak up on!

I had better than 20/20 vision in my right eye when I was younger. It was a huge advantage shooting with a rifle. As recently as eight or nine years ago I outshot my buddy who at the time was a range master/weapons instructor with Air Force security. He said that almost never happened. To go from that to now sucks.
Oh well. I'm sure I'm still better than most. |

As I grew "older" my sight began to slip away - from a kid to an old man. I have a 12X Leupold and 2 Nikon Prostaffs on my rifles. Pistols? they are for CQB anyway - 5-15 yards and not much more.
Funny thing, though. I have always been much better with a pistol than a rifle.
