We Know you Ride, But do you Shoot?
- Thread starter Triple
- Start date
It's lighter so with the stock slide I was using the blue spring, now I find it's shooting smoother with the red spring. It's the trigger that really makes you want to shoot fast though.
And my dot is actually green, I read that it's easier to see green for most people so I went with green over amber for the colour.
PS we should have a GTAM range day then you could try it out for yourself

GTAM members with guns? Together, in a large group?
Have you not learned anything from the threads we have here? :lmao:
I dont have a range membership anywhere but yeah Im down
Its $20 to be a guest at my range....
Good point GTAM trackday I got hit from behind by another rider...LOL
Someone told me yesterday that at SD if you are not a member you have to shoot at 25yards for pistols. T or F?
Ya only members who went through the "training" can go to the action range
And what kind of target are you able to shoot at that range? Paper? Is there anywhere we can shoot steel targets?
Mention of the "action" range reminded me of a funny story at silverdale.
Years ago when i first started shooting and i was new to the range i finally got one of the range officers to sign off on me using the action range. I went with my buddy and we notice that there were targets like the pic below in the pit. I looked around and thought "sweet, something to shoot at", since no one was around. It was a sweet target with all sorts of shapes and what not, i must have put at least 5 mags into all the targets when i noticed a nice fella standing next to me. Once i finished he tells me those were his targets and he just went to the car to get something :lmao:
He made those targets to withstand his .22, me not knowing went at it with my 9mm and put holes in all his targets essentially destroying them. I offered to pay the guy but he wouldn't take a penny from me, telling me he'll just make some more.
The whole time my buddy is laughing his *** off at me, and i felt like a complete ****** bag lol

Ya paper, there is a pit at the "action" range, that as far as i know you can put some of those target thingys i posted above. Can't tell you for sure, i spend very little time at the handgun range, most of it i do longer distances staring through a scope
There used to be a steel plate at the longest range as well, not sure if its still there or not after the shakeup that silverdale went through recently

Stupid laws.. I had to go to Caledonia today, but because I was planning on shooting a restricted, I had to drive past my range, go home, get my guns and go back to Burlington.. 90km of needless driving lol Anyway, took a cousin out for some constructive shooting. Here's a vid of me and my 10/22 (I wear the gloves because I shoot my AR a lot, the handguard gets hot, so I wear gloves with everything to keep things consistent).
