Same here - even if the weather isn't entirely cooperative but it doesn't look too bad.

Guns are oil wiped in case it's damp....snowing on and off still. Have fun. Keep those range reports coming all!

I am licensed to take my revolver to the range and that's it. During transport it must have a trigger lock and be locked inside a case. Get caught not following the rules and bye-bye gun license. Not to mention fines and/or jail time.

Are there strict regulations on the range? i.e., can you have a personal range on your own property if you have a safe location? Do you have to keep your handgun locked up when it's on your own property?

Seems odd some shops would have a good selection of handguns when the only shooting opportunities are at a licensed range. I wouldn't think they would sell well given this restriction but I could be wrong.

NCG; I watched a Hickock45 video on your Kimber. That is a little powerhouse.

Congrats on your new Kimber K6. Very informative post and fine shooting. Watched a YouTube where they staged the trigger prior to making the shot. Is that what you did on the targets you posted? Was it difficult finding a gun store that carried this model?
Hope you don’t have any bear encounters; but if you do, adios bear.
