In the flesh baby! Of course back in those days I did not know that I needed to wear hearing protection to get a good night's sleep.

TM262 Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 You know you are a shooter when: The first question you ask the doctor after you had a heart attack and two stents implanted into you heart is: Will I be able to shoot the match this weekend?

jar Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Your plano shooting glasses cost ten times as much as your prescription glasses. You schedule your contact lens replacement based on important matches. You could wear a different t-shirt and ball-cap every day for weeks.

RichardX Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 You know you are a shooter when: You are the only one in your CCW class with a SA auto... You buy your wife 2 pistols and a rifle (Identical to yours-backups) and tell her that's our anniversary budget--then she says "Cool!" Your wife busts her thumb open on the 4th stage of a SASS match, rips the band aid off on the fifth stage on purpose, shoots clean on the 6th stage and sobs on the way home "I got blood on my guns..."

joecichlid Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 You check your home range's schedule for the local PD qualification days so you can be the first to scrounge the brass... You do laps on the promenade deck of your cruise ship, airgunning as you go... The authors of the reading you bring on your vacation are Enos, Bassham and Kirsch... I am soooooo guilty of those! lol Right in there with my laptop are a few copies of Front Sight, assorted stage diagrams from matches so I can get ideas for local stages and other shooting related stuff. Nothing says high hit factor stage like dry firing in your cabin on a cruise ship. I have come up with a lot of low movement, high round count stages thanks to my cabin. *Needs to get back into brass shagging* Joe W. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DyNo! Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Find brass and ammunition wherever normal people find spare change. Exercise trigger discipline on any object that has a trigger regardless of whether it is actually a firearm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Round_Gun_Shooter Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 I'm single and have 1 car and 2 trucks. During the summer I use the 1/2 ton Chevy for running about to the grocery store, Dr's. office and such because the Chevy S10 truck is loaded with my gear for shooting high power rifle and the car has my pistol box and gear in the trunk. Usually from May through Sept. neither vehicle is unloaded. Rifles and pistols stay in the rig unless they need to be worked on. Empty brass is taken out when the brass can is full. When my kids ask if they can use my car, they also add. We will take the ammo out first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiG Lady Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 "Exercise trigger discipline on any object that has a trigger regardless of whether it is actually a firearm." I can't begin to tell you how many times I've done that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin c Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 (edited) When you KNOW that the "The Great One" is not Jackie Gleason. When you KNOW that "Ford Engine Blue" is really "Dillon Blue". When, in the first week it was announced, a half dozen of your range pals applied for a shooting based reality show, and that even you, a past his expiration date half blind mild mannered white collar soft handed middlin' A Glock shootin' kiddie doc, briefly deluded himself into thinking, "hey, why not me?".

joecichlid Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 When you have a full reloading bench and enough stuff to laod 10,000 rounds for each gun in your motor home that you take to matches with you. It also has all the stuff to do major machine work on your guns if needed. Joe W. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-Ho Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 After separating from your wife, you make sure to buy a new Dillon before you get a washer and dryer. And I hate laudromats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
