So, anyone else making the trip to the Pistol Championships at Camp Perry? It'll be my second year this time around, again with the Ottawa Sportsmen's Club junior pistol team (aka the junior Team Springfield), and I'll be shooting both .22 and .45 this year as opposed to last year's .22 only...

At Wal-Mart today we were looking through the $5.50 DVD bin and found Black Hawk Down in it. We're watching it now. It's getting toward the end. Good movie! Anyway, thought you guys might like to know. LLM

ACP230 and I were at the local gunshop this afternoon, picking up his new Browning Hi-Power Practical, and we both notice this nice stainless Kimber Rimfire Target in the case. So, after he fills out all the forms to get the BHP, he asks to see it. (I would've earlier but I can't handle handguns...

Dad and I went hunting today. We were in a spot where we had seen a grouse last year. Nothing happened the first half hour we were out there. Then Dad went down a small trail while I went parallel to him in the woods. I had fallen behind a little bit. (My gun was pointing to my left, away...

I will be headed down to Escanaba, MI, with my dad (If he feels good enough) to hunt with my brother. We'll be bow deer hunting and turkey hunting. My weapons will be: For turkey: My J.C. Higgins Model 20 12-gauge pump with full choke and #6 loads And for deer: My Browning Micro Midas...

Hi all. About three weeks earlier, three generations of this family walked the woods. We just got the pics developed, so here they are. On the left is ACP230, in the middle is my grandpa Ollie, and on the right is me.

Okay. Three people shot last month's match. Two of them were ACP230 and I. It doesn't seem worth it to keep on. Now if you people say it is, ACP230 will do the next match. Aye? Nay? Speak up!

A friend of mine just got a Savage Mark I .22 single-shot bolt-action. I'm wondering what you guys think about these? It seems to me a nice little gun, nice and light, small .22 scope on it, smooth action. So what do you think?

Okay then. The first bow I had (Bear Whitetail Junior) broke. The one I meant to buy went up 80 bucks. Now, we've found a bow that 1: Isn't made by Bear (I'm avoiding Bear because they've been taken over by Escalade Sports and do none of their work in the U.S. anymore) 2: Is affordable and 3...

Hey all I have some pictures from a shotgun outing that Dad and I went on a few days ago. Darn. I'll have to attach these. Anyone know how to paste images right into a post? Here's the first one, me working the action on my J.C. Higgins Model 20 after a shot.

Hey all! Grouse season starts tommorrow here in the U.P. and Dad and I will be hunting tommorrow most likely. I'll be carrying the J.C. Higgins Model 20 mentioned in my sig, loaded with Remington 6 shot. Dad will be carrying...well...I don't know. Ask him. But yeah. This is my first year...

I just picked up a Bear Whitetail Jr. youth bow. Draw weight is adjustable between 35-40 pounds, currently set at 40. Draw length is adjustable from 23 inches-25 inches. It came with sight plate, sight bars, quiver, finger tab, arm guard and target. The price was $78.83 plus tax. What do you think?

The match this month will be: IIIIT'S BIRD SEASON!! Now then, it's two weeks to bird season here in the U.P. Time to haul out your scattergun and get some last-minute practice. Here's your target. Three classes this month. Small Bore/Gauge Shotgun: Any .410 bore or 28 gauge...

I have shot a Glock. I feel unclean now. Plastic guns...*shudders* Admittedly it was light, and the recoil wasn't bad, but still...it's a Glock. Urgh. Give me steel and wood. It's the only cure.

My family and I were in Marquette, Michigan a few days ago. Dad and I noticed a used J.C. Higgins Model 20 (Mossberg 500 made for Sears) sitting in the Used Firearms rack at Gander Mountain. The price: $89.99. I looked at it, said, "Hey! I could use this!" and two days later, it's mine. The...

Well, Dad and Mom and I went down to a shooting club about 40 minutes away to shoot steel with the club that shoots down there. We brought along a Remington 40-X .22 for benchrest, a Marlin 90 16-gauge, and several pistols. (See ACP230's thread in Handguns: Autoloaders for all the details.)...

Okay. Here is the match. You can find the target here Rules: This match will be done from offhand, except in the Rifle Supported class. The distance will be 25 yards, or the closest there is at your range. Slings aren't allowed. You get 10 shots on the ram. Scoring: You...

I just found out there is an IDPA match on the day I leave for a Christian camp for a week! If we (my family and I) time it right, we could go to the match, shoot it, then go on and drop me at camp. BTW, if we go, this would be my first IDPA match. I'd probably be shooting a Colt Combat...

My dad and I went out to the local range today. Usually the car is loaded with target .22s to shoot .22 benchrest with, but today the contents were three shotguns, (A Mossberg 590 12 gauge, an old Ithaca 66 20-gauge single shot, and an FIAS 20-gauge over-and-under.) plus ammo, two boxes of...

Sad story to tell... So my dad and I see this nice Mossberg 500 Bantam in our local Gander Mountain for $150. We figure, hey that'll fit me nice...well we're going to a benchrest match now, we can pick it up when we come back through the next day. Soo, we come back around the next day...
