    Top Shot - Season 3

    You need to send a video in to top shot. You have the show won already. I agree the rock throwing would be my easiest challenge. I pitched in high school. I believe I would probably be average in the shooting department. I would do well with the rifles and decent with the pistols. I'm more of...

    Ammo cost exceded gun value?

    Until recently my handgun collection consisted of only .40smith. So for 4 years at about roughly 80 bucks, give or take, every time I shot my guns. I started shooting less and less until it was almost nonexistent. My dads buddy reloads .40 specifically for us now. We buy the stuff and give him...

    How to make Top Shot better?

    I think they should use paint cartridges to simulate real life shooting situations. Like a paint ball war but with the rounds Law Enforcement and the Military use. I think its call simunition. It would add a little different aspect to the challenges. Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using Tapatalk

    Question about .40 S&W

    First off. 40s&w is my round of choice. I only have one other caliber (9mm) that I recently picked up. Now the key to controlling the "snappy" recoil is to find a gun that fits your hand perfectly. If the grip is just a touch too big then the gun feels as if it will jump right out your hand...

    Top Shot - Season 3

    I'm not in any way trying to be a smarty pants but didn't Mike Hughes get eliminated? I think Gary took him out this past week. I may be wrong because I've been known to mix things up from time to time. Lol. Anyway. I personally think Jake is an idiot. Yeah he can shoot but I don't care for...

    Top Shot - Season 3

    The first challenge to choose teams was very impressive. Some of those guys handled that 500 like it was a 9mm. I was very impressed at how fast some of them followed up shots. I think this season will be the best yet. The blue team looks stacked but you never know. We shall see.

    Handling Road Rage Situations

    Catnphx: Very well done. You were cruising alone on an empty 3 lane highway with an idiot that was obviously looking for a reason to show his behind. I wouldn't have budged from my lane either. There were 2 extra lanes to pass and the fella chose to harass you. You kept your composure and made...

    Hardest kicking gun you've ever shot?

    Grandpa's single shot 12ga. The gun seems like it only weighs a few ounces. I was about 17 and I missed a deer with my pump. So pops made me use the single. At first I was happy because it was so light but I realized something was up when everyone kept grinning and laughing at me. We all take...

    Anybody else cheap (broke)? Share your tips

    For those shooting air rifles. Here's a trick my mother taught me when I first started shooting. Take a coffee can with top. Any size but the bigger ones are easier to construct. Nail the can to a good sturdy tree, through the bottom of the can with the top facing out. Place the plastic top on...

    At what age should I introduce my son to firearms.

    I'm glad I ran across this thread. Just last night, my son, which is 2 1/2, asked me "Daddy when me shoot?" I didn't have the answer. I figure in a couple years but he is showing alot of interest and paying alot of attention. He sees some of the hunting shows on TV and it blows my mind how...

    Squirrel hunting

    I switch between my .410 single shot and a 22lr. Depending on where in the woods I'll be hunting and density of the trees. If I'm going in to a good spot late season to sit on a stump or log then I'll carry my 22. I enjoy sitting on small clearings watching tree lines. If I'm going to be...

    Illegal to buy a gun from a felon?

    I'm willing to bet someone in this thread, unknown to us, has bought a firearm from a felon. I'm sure it happens daily. Most everytime I've bought a gun privately I have copied their driver license in my shooting book and asked the normal conversation about legality and reason of sell. Whether...

    Have you guys seen the lion hunt/attack on Youtube?

    All I know is that if that big cat would have ran after me I would have soiled myself. I'm highly allergic to cats. :D Rifles with iron sights seems to make most sense. At least have a good shooter with on handy.

    Steel target ideas.

    Depends on which way it spends. I've found that out the hard way. :D

    The first gun you ever shot

    Single shot .410. Squirrel hunting with Dad. He was doing all the shooting until he got tired of my pestering. Initially I was just supposed to see how it was done. Ha. Fat chance Daddy-O. I was about 6-7 years old. I still have the gun and I plan on showing my little one how to slay squirrels...
