  1. My brother's home was burglarized 10 days ago. He has a gun safe, his wife didn't keep her jewelry in it. $10K worth of jewelry gone, big screen TV gone, big heavy safe, no guns gone. Insurance covered $4200 on jewelry & big screen TV. SOL on the rest. I'm getting a safe for Christmas. Sorry for your misforture, I'm puting up camera's. god bless.
  2. We all love having fun @ match's. This is just one of those glitch's that will stick in your mind as a reminder, this will never happen again. More than likely there will be a couple of dozen more to learn from. Just when you think you've seen it all, up pops a new gotcha.
  3. TRULY AMAZING that man, machine and software produces such amazing results.
  4. A fellow shooting friend gave me 2 10 gallon size boxes of brass. Took me 2 weeks to sort, mainly 9mm. I ended up with about 20K 9mm cases which I traded for 16 lbs. of VV N320. Gave my friend some .45 cases, kept the .40 cases. It was a winter time sort, wx outside was frightful, kept me busy in my shop. Anything activity gun or reloading related keeps me happy. MERRY CHRISTMAS
  5. Happy Birthday to a cute little gal. I imagine dad is grinning ear to ear. MERRY CHRISTMAS
  6. Yea, yea, yea. My nephew lives in S.A. and I talked to him yesterday. Temp's hi 70's but he's headed to his dad's in Steamboat Springs Co. for the holidays. Only 13 feet of new snow in Steamboat. MERRY CHRISTMAS
  7. Thanks for the feedback guys. I'd like to use an open airsoft on them for fun, but they are pretty serious. I appreciate the info. Moderator, you may close this thread.
  8. Merry Christmas. If any competitors are traveling to the louisville Ky. area check out www.practicalshooters.com for uspsa match's in our area. Have a safe and happy holiday season.
  9. Beautiful trio. All you need is a AA belt with 3 holsters and nine mag holders. You can show up at a match and shoot multiple divisions at the same time.
  10. Looks great. Time to go to the range and break er in.
  11. Those toodles on the ridge behind the target were ducking. More power to her.
  12. All that vodka and all they do is drink it. If they would throw every other shot out the window they could still drive & drink.
  13. I am not the club president but I do organize 1 monthly uspsa match and 1 monthly steel match for our club. When I'm really organized, stage design, match prep, scoresheets etc. are complete a week in advance. 4-5 days prior to the match I call responsible hard working club members for a couple hrs. work prior to the match. None of us are paid for our work. My reward are competitors after the match commenting what a great match it was. I try to set up state/sectional type stages, usually 4 plus a classifier. I do allow help who arrive early on match day for final setup to shoot free(first 4 who arrive). I love shooting, I want fairly tough freestyle stages for all competitors to enjoy or learn better technique for future match's. My motivation is to provide competitors a fun safe match everyone will enjoy including myself.
  14. I've been without car/truck pymt's for 9 yrs. Will never go back. Drove a $3K truck for 3 yrs. sold it for $3500, bought a $13k truck, drove it for 6 yrs(pd. for the day I drove it away)(used) sold it for $9k, bought a 08 with 11K miles, pd for the day I drove it away. The guy I bought my 08 from took a $11K hit for buying new. Changes the way you spend money when you dig deep in your pocket instead of signing on the line for a loan. life is better.
  15. .22 rf followed by 9mm. .22rf is starting to dominate our monthly steel match's whereas 2 years ago 9mm was by far the caliber of joice.
  16. I have boring bees attempting to eat thier way into logs on my log home. I have managed to terminate them with various methods but bee's from hatched eggs act like salmon, return to thier place of birth to lay eggs and die. I'd like some suggestions.
  17. Have 4500 rounds of match .308 but no gun. Decided I didn't want to pull bullets so as D.H says, need to buy a gun or 3.
  18. New shooters brief with our experienced range officers. Rules are explained, questions asked(usually many),new shooters shoot last on thier squad. We encourage interaction with scoring and pasting, more questions prior to MAKE READY. New club members must attend orientation (club rules, what you can and can't shoot)cold range rules & explaination. Have to start somewhere, seems to be working, always tweeking orientation, safe, safer is better.
  19. Put me behind my reloading bench on a cold miserable day and I'm loving it.
  20. A buddy gave me 50lbs on IMR rifle powder. Let's see, 18 rounds = 1/2 lb. powder, 36 rounds = 1 lb powder. 50lbs powder = 1800 rounds. All I need is a dump truck load of bronze.
  21. 2 pieces of 1 foot long 2X4 clapped together makes spider juice.
