True Story
Yesterday I walked into a bar in western Colorado and some guy was holding a pistol to the head of a young lady. Since I had been loaned a .40 Glock I moved over to my left so I could see him and in one reflex I pushed that little black pistol outward and it went off. Hit him in the face. He dropped like a stone.
Only one small problem, the dirtbag had a buddy. He was in a small room off to the right. He would have smoked me cold but the guy with me pointed him out and I put two fast ones into his chest, three inches apart. Pretty noisy shooting a .40 in a small bar, but I don't have much hearing left to lose.
Aside from that, weather was real nice, had a great fillet last night, met some neat folks, a pretty good trip.

Re: True Story
Bill,
It wasn't really long range shooting, but since I do not shoot handguns and since I had never shot a guy in the noggin across a bar-room, it was a long shot for me!

Re: True Story
With a pistol, anything past the muzzle is long range for me. I bet that is a blast!!
BTW, you had me searching for a shooting in CO yesterday. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

Re: True Story
They had a section of an airplane, a living room setup of a house, a bar, a park with an old car - lots of realism. Big challenge for me was figuring how to load that damn Glock. Some kind of fragmenting bullet, plus steel walls everywhere but no chance of a bullet bouncing back at you.
We also shot a brand new GA Precision .308 and a Robar that was all painted up, plus about ten other rifles that ranged from a lever action 44mag to a tricked out .22 Ruger 10-22. Then we shot shotguns for two rounds, not really a sporting clays setup but next to it. Shotguns and I do not get along that well but I hit a lot of really difficult angle shots and missed a lot of dead-ass easy ones.
Shooting at all those dummies in the shoot-house was the hoot tho. Place is so good that all sorts of SWAT and Special Forces units practice there. Saw some martial arts stuff that was amazing.

Re: True Story
Ian M,
That had to be a lot of fun,
the best I've had it was a couple of years ago
when I had a lucky day. In fact it was with a glock 35 practical tactical in .40.
You need a fast conection.
