    It's not a competition. I have some, but not a lot. Even if you didn't have a gun I can guarantee you would be able to shoot something.

    Yeah, I just feel weird asking to shoot someone else's gun without really bringing anything to the table.

    Don't worry about it. Most of the time, they will ask you before you even get a chance to ask them.

    This is true, the first time I went I think Ben and Moonpie asked me to shoot every damn gun they had, which felt awkward to me but I think they enjoyed watching me shoot it more than they enjoyed shooting themselves. I now find myself doing the same thing with the few guns I actually have.

    The first time I went, I spent several hours loading and letting folks shoot a black powder pistol. I don't care how many guns you have, what kind they are or how good you are with them. You will have fun. You will make friends. If you don't, it is because you tried not to.
    Rules are simple:
    Show up
    Be safe
    Have fun
    Even the kids that show can manage that.

    Very true. This one is quite anxious for October to arrive ;)

    That's the truth, while others shot mine, I don't think I shot any of my own. When I last met up with Moonpie I started wondering if there was a bottom to his bag he kept putting a new one into my hands.

    I've never been to one but plan on it. A plan to me would be to buy several boxes of ammo that you would like to shoot ( 9mm & 45) and ask who can help you unload the cases. I wouldn't buy any exotic stuff unless you know something will be there for it. Just a random thought.

    I mean we can't do it at the range we go to. Is there somewhere we can do it?


    Also does anyone have a rear sight post for an AR15 laying around? I just built a PSA gun but it didnt come with a rear sight post.

    I wanna shoot:
    Darkpriest's Caniks
    A Sig P226.
    A Walther P99? That's supposed to have the awesome trigger
    A CZ again with the omega trigger.
    Some HK pistols

    Never shot any of those except a CZ P 10c. I need to broaden my horizons.
