Ray Ray 3,566 Posted January 16, 2010 Bob, for your wife a 3 or 4 in 38 special would be perfect. Easy to load and unload, low recoil and simple to use. Those 380s are nice but are hard to shoot, plus the recoil is more than you think. As for the Bi-weekly meetup, I'd have no problem making the date for a Friday. It might even get the guys who can only come on the weekends to come out that night. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

J-frame size is great for a woman with smaller hands and weight if a 3 or 4 inch barrel is decent. K frame if she can handle a little more size. An old defense load was 147gr HBWC loaded upside down at about 900fps. Little recoil and expandamundo! Back on topic- No BH for me Thursday- Going to Cabela's Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Caine 147 Posted January 21, 2010 I got the handguns and ammo packed so I can grab everything when I get home and run back out. So, barring crazy traffic getting back home or anything crazy happening at work, I'm hoping to be there by 7:15ish. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kenw 293 Posted January 21, 2010 And I was gonna bring the pink Walther P22 just for you... No worries. He can play with the pink snubbie on Saturday. If his gurly hands can stand the massive recoil. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Caine 147 Posted January 22, 2010 Had fun tonight. BH was, as usual, crowded Got there at 7 and there were only 2 bays open. I, as usual, have the situational awareness of a rock and didn't notice the guy 2 bays down from me wearing the NJGF tshirt. About 10-15 minutes later I hear a commotion behind me, turn around, and there's RayRay in his NJGF shirt This is also when I see the other guy with the NJGF tshirt.. it's none other than BobTimmons! About half an hour later Ian and his wife walked in. There were no bays open for them, so Ray offered to share his :clap: Had a hard time getting to talk to everyone cuz we were scattered all over the range... and anyone that knows me knows I'm not exactly a chatter box anyway. But it was great meeting everyone and putting faces to names. I had a cr@ppy day at work, so getting to shoot was exactly what I needed. Thanks for getting the ball rolling Ray and hopefully we'll have a bigger turn out next time Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ianargent 7 Posted January 22, 2010 I'm glad y'all got me off my ass and onto the firing range. Ray, thanks for sharing your lane and letting me try out that revolver; and sorry about my Glock biting... Next time I'll try and bring a couple of the more interesting targets I've picked up. http://mrcompletely.blogspot.com/ is the blogger that organizes the e-postal matches I shoot; while we're in winter hiatus right now you can look at his archives to see some of the more interesting challenges. They're usually hosted by another gun blogger to whom Mr. Completely links; it's a good way to check out some interesting blogs. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bobtimmons 4 Posted January 22, 2010 Sorry I missed Ian, but nice to meet Pete & see Ray. I brought along the AR with the new (cheap) scope. This was 10 rounds at 25 yards without a rifle rest. I just need to get my butt to CR and the 100 yd range. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ray Ray 3,566 Posted January 22, 2010 Yo Yo Yo, nice to see some of my peeps last night! Where gonna make this a regular thing, so get used to it. We are gonna put the Brick Armory boys to shame! Hay, how about a challenge? BA verses BH! Tim? Whatcha think? Pete (Caine), thanks for letting me finally shoot the greatest handgun ever made, GLOCK! And the other, more comfortable, more natural pointing, more accurate M&P. Bob (bobtimmons), the Beretta looks good with those grips. And nice AR, maybe next time I'll bring mine. Jonathan and Joanne? (ianargent), I like that Glock but it's made for a righty. Alot guys wouldn't bring their significant others if they shoot better than them, but you didn't care and came along anyway and got embarassed! Right on bro. 2 weeks till the next one, see you guys there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
