Mrs. Peel 7,157 Posted May 29, 2017 OMG! What a perfect day/evening I had. I really must send a very big THANK YOU to Griz and High Exposure. Let me explain... first, Griz was kind and generous enough to invite me to join him at his range in Jackson to try a whole slew of different firearms... to start narrowing down my choices for Permit #2. Wow, I was like a kid in a candy store.... and I learned sooo much! The only bad part is, LOL, I'm more confused than ever about what I want to buy. I can see this is all a matter of trade-offs. Like the Glock was nice and light, which was a pleasure... but on the other hand, I felt like it was beating up my hand more than some of the heavier steel guns. I can see this is all a matter of personal preference and figuring out the trade-offs. Anyway, as we're chatting away with the people around us, of all the damn FLUKES, we find out we're talking to our very own: High Exposure!... who was there with a couple of buddies. Did you ever have one of those times when totally spontaneous plans just fall into place perfectly? Well, this was one of those times. We figured it was too late to post an announcement, so HE picked up his phone and just starts PMing people for a last minute happy hour. Soon enough, we have a surprisingly large group gathered at a very quaint local watering hold that Griz recommended! My life has been all about work and eldercare for the last year... so frankly, this was the first really relaxing time I've had in AGES. So, thank you both. What a perfect day! And it was really nice meeting all of the rest of you that were there. I'm only sorry that I had to cut out early so I could check in on my dad. Is the party still going on? 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Displaced Texan 11,751 Posted May 29, 2017 Thanks for the invite, guys!! I'm sorry I missed this, Mrs. DT had me tied up ( No, nothing like that...lol). Wish I could have met y'all face to face for a couple of libations. Keep me in mind for the next one!! Cheers, y'all! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GRIZ 3,369 Posted May 29, 2017 You're very welcome Mrs Peel. I had a good time and it nice to connect faces with screen names and avatars. You really did well for being a first time with those guns you fired. Like I told you next time I'll bring the black powder and 44 magnum. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

capt14k 2,052 Posted May 29, 2017 Griz is a good guy. I had the pleasure of meeting him myself at Remixer's office. Glad to hear you had a good time Mrs. Peel. I am also a member at CJRPC. Mrs. Peel if you ever want to try out firearms made between 1895-1974 I am your guy. I don't buy much of that new fangled stuff. You just need to promise no more crazy Zeke for Mod support.

I'm a huge collector of turn of the century stuff (Victorian, etc.)... Girlie stuff - like jewelry, silverware, etc. But I've often admired antique guns! I may take you up on that, thank you! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unfortunately in 38 not the 32 you're used to carrying Mrs Peel [emoji6]I have a Savage 1907 in .32 also a H&R Top Break in S&W .32 Short. I got some .38-200 New production supposedly loaded to the original specs. It's only been 2 months so I figure maybe by Labor Day I will have my permits and can pick mine up and shoot the .38-200.Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Krdshrk 3,877 Posted May 29, 2017 Glad I was able to stop by for a little - I've been running around like crazy for lighting for the new house, so when I got the message I was glad to stop by and take a quick breather. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I found using the top edge of the sight (like a buckhorn sight) it's pretty much on. I've been thinking of getting some 200 rnl to reload for the Web let and experiment with in 38 spl and 357 mag.

Mrs. Peel 7,157 Posted May 29, 2017 Oooo... Mrs. Z, I'm soooo sorry! I would have loved to have met you. Next time... ! (But is there a way you can leave you-know-who at home though?) 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
