Precisely why I have always opposed buying guns or ammo at big box stores. CTD, Dicks, Walmart, etc, are not going to fight for the 2nd Amendment. Use the opportunity to support the guy who cares enough about it to open up a store - you can bet he probably wasn't planning to get rich. I'd pay...

Friend of mine with 3 boys says that with boys, you have to worry about one prick. With girls, you have to worry about all of them.

Lots of things to shoot - paper, cans, plastic bottles, spinner targets, steel targets, milk jugs full of water. Can be a tremendous amount of fun.

I want my 59 seconds back.

Thugly is exactly the type of thing I was asking about. Was thinking about some targets from www.shootsteel.com Or maybe some of the body shot targets from here: http://www.do-alltraps.com/targeting.html

One of Murphy's laws of combat is never forget that your weapon was made by the lowest bidder.

I can already tell you their conclusion: Plausible

Really what I'd like is some good steel. I've bought a couple now that couldnt take the rounds they claimed they could. My foam silhouette works well and has taken about 1000 rounds so far. Worth the money to not have to mess with cardboard, and does fine in rain, wind, etc. I just stick...

Whatever. It's a minor point undeserving of the amount of discussion already rendered.

Exactly. A better trained shooter is ALWAYS the best option. But a novice shooter picking up a short barreled Redhawk in .454 Casull is going to lead to fundamental errors. It's not the gun's fault. I was responding to the statement that there no inherent difference in accuracy between...

I live in a rural area and have several places in my land to shoot. I usually set up some paper shoot-n-c targets stuck to cardboard on a folding target stand. Or I use a silhouette that is augmented with shoot n c stickers over the heart and center head. The silhouette is from Trigger Happy...

Sort of. I am not an advocate of mouse guns for self defense. However, fundamental errors - such as flinching, anticipating recoil, jerking the trigger, and milking - are far more likely from large caliber weapons than small calibers.

Some good info there. Since the title is AFTER action - I would especially adhere to the advice given to me by several active and retired officers. Basically, pay attention to the Miranda rights. Tell them who you are, comply with instructions, etc. Answer questions with an attorney present.

Agreed - the RTC's have a nice BL look

How far away are you? Is that your shots I hear from time to time?

Sure, ask the Germans about charging a position upon hearing the sound of an M1 clip hitting the ground. US Special Ops still use M14's - until very recently as as a primary weapon.

Shot placement. I've taken deer with a wide range of calibers. Shot placement is key. Started using a rifled 12 gauge this year, and love it. But I still have to carefully place the shot. Keep the round in the chest cavity - often that means clipping a front shoulder.

Training. The best accessory you can get for any weapon is a better trained shooter (you) pulling the trigger.
