What firearm fired today?

[wiscoaster]

Put some new wood Vintage Gun Grips on my VZOR-70 and, natch, had to shoot it to see if said grips enhanced its shootability (a little, maybe):

[Walkalong]

Sighted back in after maintenance, then shot five 3 shot groups, all different charge weights, nothing over .423.

 

[FFGColorado]

Not today but this Saturday, outdoor range up in Roosevelt National Forest..
Glock 17, Uberti Thunderer, Ruger Wrangler
Henry 22LR lever, Glock 48, Ruger Vaquero...

 

[Ignition Override]

-An identical VZ-58 by Czechpoint. >> Sidenote: Valerie's ("50CalVal", Youtube) father owns Serbu Arms; custom designs. Yes, I totally prefer watching sweaty, muscular men on Youtube operate guns....
Valerie also assembles/produces guns in the factory, und spricht 'fliessend' deutsch (woher...?) .
-MAK 90 in 7.62x39.

Today, the large, empty, yellow, plastic washing machine detergent jug made a fun Rifle target on Action Pistol berms at 25 yards! It jumped around 2-5 feet, tethered with Weedeater Cord to a metal bar, like a very early helicopter test.

-Ruger Mark IV, .22LR (mostly needs Rem.Golden Bullet or Herters to function well).
-The "new" S&W 908 3rd. Gen 9mm. .98" thickness grip, very nifty gun. The lightest all-metal S&W. Very smooth DA trigger; whether it is a stock DA pull, have no idea.
-CZ PCR, 9mm.

A little snow on the ground and cool temps. Good day to send some surplus rounds down range. 1941 Finnish VKT and Yugo M48a.

[jonnyc]

Zero'd in my .300 BLK pistol with the ammo it's stored with.
Brought my Yugo Under-Folder AK, just for fun.
Practiced a bit with my Glock 43X EDC. Might hit 5000 rounds with it next month! Not my most accurate or fun handgun, but it shoots to a very effective group every time I pull the trigger.

Taurus TX22
Beretta APX
Beretta 92FS-22
Heritage Rough Rider
Glock 30S

Spent about 3 hours at the range with a former coworker and must have blown 500 rds of ammo. He only brought the Glock, everything was mine. Was fun to let other people try your gear and see how they react and liked it. He's dying for a Henry now

 

[Armored farmer]

I went back to the riverbottom to retrieve my climber while the weather is nice.
I brought my trusty ,204 along in hopes of spotting one of the coyotes that are always shadowing our turkeys.
No such luck....

 

[jags]

Put some rounds through the Marlin 1895 45-70 today.

 

[foresthawk]

No pictures to post, but fired several rounds through .45 cal. percussion muzzleloader today. Patched round ball.
Wonderful drifting clouds of smoke.

 

[AK103K]

Had some fun with a couple of old S&W 357's this afternoon. A 2.5" 19-3, and a 3" 65-3.



Had a little snow last week.

 

[Gus Chiggins]

Sighted in a new Lyman Great Plains Rifle. 50 cal.
3 shot group standing at 50 yds. That'll do.

Fired my Christmas present (from me to me) today:

View attachment 964555

Henry Long Ranger in .223 / 5.56.

Interesting gear-driven bolt carrier with an AR-style bolt. It shoots pretty good. The only real downside is the box magazine only holds five rounds (plus one in the chamber). Loaded, the mag sits flush so as to not interfere with the lever throw. I zeroed the iron sights today, and will be installing a Weaver base and a scope, probably something suitable for 100 - 200 yds.

 

[Legionnaire]

Bought a Glock 48 some months back ... before the current ammo shortage. Took it out for the first time today. Shot 20 rounds of Federal 115 grain FMJ to get a baseline, then shot hand loads, all of which went bang as expected. I'm happy.

 

[jags]

Got out to shoot my Marlin 444S before the snow storm hit this morning.

 

[BLACKHAWKNJ]

My last couple of range sessions I have been shooting my J.C. Higgins Model 46 DL (aka Marlin Model 56).

 

[Gus Chiggins]

Beretta 92S and a Glock 44 .22.

 

[LaneP]

Hit a rare 52 degree New England Christmas Eve and took my newly rebarreled (from 4" to 7") 686 out to the range.

 

[375supermag]

Spent the morning at the gun club.
Shot about 150 rounds through various .357Mag revolvers. Another 80 rounds through various .44Spl revolvers. Shot another 80 rounds through various .41Mag revolvers. Finished up with another 80 rounds through various .45Colt revolvers.
Didn't get to the .44Magnums today.
Needed to chronograph some .357Maximum loads but the battery was dead in the chronograph... didn't have a spare battery.
Son shot a great deal of revolver rounds as well...no idea how many.
He was shooting a lot of 9mm, 10mm and .40S&W also.

I have two large coffee cans of brass to separate tomorrow from today's range time.

 

[JulietTango]

Ruger Redhawk 5.5” .44 magnum.
S&W 69 2.75” .44 magnum
S&W 642 1 7/8” .38 special

 

[Gus Chiggins]

Remington 870 TC at the trap and skeet club. Went 24 straight and shot under 25th bird. Agghhh!!!

 

[Frulk]

.44 Mag Henry Rifle (20 inch) using swinging plate steel torso target @ 50 yards standing on my local neighborhood range.

 

[1976B.L.Johns.]

My Kimber Rapide in 45 ACP and my Super Blackhawk in 44 Rem Mag.
Purpose on the range trip was to test my new load for the 45 even if the temperature was in the lower teens..
Well, only had 10 test loads of one charge but did shoot some factory through it also. Some Magtech and some "Ball" match ammo head-stamped RA 60 MATCH. Could hardly tell the difference between the three loads.
Of course, figuring I was out, decided to fire a few through the old Ruger as it has been neglected for a few months and came along for the ride....

Once again ,as I have said before, revolvers are for winter, autos are for "No snow". (Losing brass....)





Did I mention I had Fun?
