We toddled over to West Virginia for our first range day since before Lance Criminal was born, and attended a Wounded Warrior Project fundraiser. I support them anyway, so that was this week's donation. It was pretty cool, although we had chores to do so we didn't stay for the lunch. I met some of my favorite gunbloggers, and three of my guns are in dire need of a thorough cleaning! I also know where I'll go for my concealed carry permit class and more training. WolfAlpha and I blasted away for about two hours before my back said, "Are you kidding me? What's with all this percussion?"
I even hit two perfect bulls-eyes, both with the .357 Magnum. Once with the hammer cocked, and once one handed. I have no idea how - 'cos that sucker is heavy!
I'm all ready for a shower now because I'm gritty and speckled with minuscule mild powder burns. Oh, and WolfAlpha got a bit of brass down his collar, a gift from the gal next to us. If I hadn't been there, I'd be demanding to know who gave him that hickie!
A bangity good day!
Sounds like fun. I would like to attend a WW meet, too.
ReplyDeleteany day shooting at the range is a good day
ReplyDelete*jealous* I haven't had range time in over a month...
ReplyDeleteGreat meeting you.
ReplyDeleteWe must do it again soon.
Yep yep yep!
DeleteGreat to meet you and as MSgtB says we must do it again!
ReplyDeleteI only used up half my ammo!
DeleteYou did great, and it was great to meet you.
ReplyDeleteBlog shoots are all the rage now days; thank goodness.
ReplyDeleteWhile I enjoy shooting & especially enjoy shooting other people's guns (ones I can't afford); I find that getting to know the people is even more fun.
We had 30 people show up for the shooting portion of our recent get together and 18 for the dinner portion. Hope that you and WolfAlpha can make it out to Texas some time; we'll have the a mini-blog shoot with just the families :)
SisterMediator is in Texas, and my parents might be moving there as well...
