Finally got to the range

Featured Replies

Man I have had my p95 for bout 2 months and finally got it to the range. I have to say it shoots very well and the accuracy was better than I thought. I realy thought I was going to have to adjust the rear sight but it is good.

We went to range 14 so it was chilly and windy causing my eyes to water a lot but I feel I shot well at 20 yards.

Took my oldest with me and I have been working with gun safety on some gas powered airsoft guns I have and for 11 years old he did good and made his old man (me old?) proud.

Look at that smile. I now have a range buddy.

After 200 + rounds of different ammo my gun seems to have a problem with blazer aluminum shells. 2 failed to eject. Remington and S&B cycled fine so only brass for me from now on.

 

I would like to leave with WOW DOES IT GET DIRTY, but I have been looking foward to finally cleaning my finally used pistol :)

See y'all

 

 

 

 

 

Welcome. Glad you and your son had a good time. Most guns are far more accurate than we are.

 

Before others step in... son's finger in the trigger guard!

 

As far as cleaning.... that is not really dirty, and that is the muzzle end. How many rounds did you put through the gun? Seems quite fine. As long as gun is not dry and not fouling up, no issues. =)

 

How was the progress at range 14? what is open and what is not?

Yea those were fast shots whith in seconds of each other when he was ready to fire. Here is before firing and still getting his aim on.

As far as the range people were shooting in the riffel area but not many and I wasent realy paying attention to see any construction going on. Pistol range was the same and when we went there was no wait at all around 11am.

I think he was referring to this picture about the finger in trigger guard.

 

Yes, I know the slide is locked back, but not a good habit to get into.

How was the range?

*wait, construction situation, etc...

 

Good shooting!

It was so fast I dident even notice. I will work on that with him. Thanks because I dident even see that in my own pictures(farthers pride has taken over).

what range is this?

He needs to lean forward! Kudos for getting in some quality father/son time.

is that a pubic range? how much is it to shoot there? i see prices for soda and chips but not prices to shoot

$60 per year i believe, yes its public.

 

They are going through a renovation right now.

 

OP, how was the construction going?

$60 per year plus $4 per hour per person.

Compared to the cost of ammo you shoot per hour, not so much. :scenic:

so if i go there with a member but dont join is it still 4/hr?

correct, You HAVE to go with a member, no walk ons.

Very true. Which is what i think about when joining a local club that is open more and there is no wait. Thinking my ammo budget will go through the roof lol

That no wait, shoot as long and often as you want isn't always a good thing.

Congrats on the range time with your son.

I have to say it has been different with the boy now. He is asking questions how everything works. It has been a good experience with us both. We are taking the weapon down and showing him what every piece does like the magazine catch and how it catches, it sounds funny because we know how it all works but it is all new to him and realy cool how we interact with each other.

 

A new found respect between both of us and he seems to feel a little older than 11years now.
