Finally a range trip !!!!!

Post by fortyshooter » Mon Aug 04, 2025 8:59 pm

It has been a while since I have shot anything due to the weather last couple months but we got a couple of "normal" humidity days around 80F so off I went! Brought along my Henry X Model in 45 Colt with the suppressor and my favorite little .380 shooter Colt Mustang. Didn't take long to get in the groove with the quiet Henry bustin clays from 45 yds. just fun plinking and wear out the gongs...man that thing rings loud! A few hits on the paper target with the Mustang and yeah me a bit rusty pulling first rounds to the right but walked them back to center. Just a fun pleasant day to shoot again!

Glad to hear you were able to get in a little therapy today, I'm sure you had a "blast" ;) :lol:
Good looking pair of companions you had with you.
I also burned some powder today, some Blue dot through some 41mag tubes. ;) it was a Blast! :) :D 8-)

Good deal. I plan to get down to the range again myself. I need to shoot some 45acp.
You can tell a lot about the character of a man...
by the way he treats those who can do nothing for him.

I don't look back at the things I can no longer do, I just look forward to the things I still can.
