The Official Status Update Thread: Part 115 - SNOWMAGGEDON (The White Death)

[Crbn79]

If you need to polish, Ill need a grinder, I got out of the army 28 years ago.

I got out in 2008, but I did a lot of NRA and Tactical courses up until 2010. The best one I did was in Quad-City, Illinois. It was a 300m distance, 80 foot tower climb, shoot 12 targets, decend, run 150m, 150 m prone 12 movers, 6 innocent 6 targets 4 meters apart. Another 75m shoot from wall edge, engage popups. 70m run, opening door 1 second shoot/no shoot pistol. And it was a 16 minute timed course. I did it in 7 mins 100% accuracy.

Edit, there was some gas mask shooting in there somewhere after the 75m wall.

Mbills, how was the Appleseed?

Dinner bell rang so I came a-running....well, I was walking fast.

Thanks, but that was pushing 5 years ago now. I'd probably only hit the Blue targets now, and put 11 rounds into little suzie on the shoot/no shoot stage.

Welcome back sir.

Wish I could have stayed to see how your new rifle ran out for you.

I'm crap with a rifle so you have me beat.

Little suzy was an alien.

I used to shoot long gun pretty well. I have been mainly pistol for a long time due to lack of close areas to shoot a rifle.

I just don't have much experience with them. I've shot an AR enough to know that I could get good with it. It seems pretty natural for me. But I don't have a rifle yet so I'll just be patient.

Bet she won't come knocking with cookies to sell any more.

That's what's killing me. Rifles have always been my strong suit. I always did great with pistols, but there's just something special about a rifle.

I think my link with rifles just goes back to when I was a kid. The first rifle I shot, dunno maybe 9 or 10y/o, was a 22lr beater bolt action repeater, held 16 rounds. Shooting in the wooded ravine behind my Grandpa's house just off Eagle Creek. Good times I'll tell you.

I didn't shoot my first pistol till I was 16.

I love to run my AR's hard but never really worked on shooting a target smaller than my cell phone at 25 yds. I can put 30 for 30 on steel at 100 ft. but that is battle accurate not bulls-eye accurate.
I have busted Coyote at 250 Yds off a bench but hitting those targets today was a serious challenge.
Trust when I say it is no cake walk.

"J" man rose to the occasion.
