Random Friday

Jim Rockford died. Er, I mean James Garner. What I liked about his show is that he personally didn't like guns but understood the need for them.

RIP Jim.

I saw Whisky Tango Foxtrot and liked it way more than I expected. Tina Fey enjoying the recreational shooting of a full auto AK47.

Going to try to go to the range again this weekend. Alone. In the morning. On the 100 yard indoor range. Need to finish dialing in my new Savage MarkII.

I have a self imposed deadline for my third Scifi Novel on March 21st. Might need to take a day off.

--Happy Friday People!

Why gun control fails

This is a simple example of how simple it is to make a gun.



--I may have to build one myself!

Range time.

Went to the range yesterday. It was crowded as usual on weekends The four of us that went shared one lane. We ended up on a 25 yard lane. I took my Beretta Px4 .40 cal and my new Savage MarkII.

I dialed the Fixed 4x scope in and was getting groups I could cover with a dime. Zombies beware. Next time I go I will take it to the 100 yard range at ESS and finish dialing it in.

I added a bi-pod to the front of this rifle. It worked great except at one point the spring loaded lead mechanism bit my right thumb and I bled all over the place.

--Still, it was a good day.

.300 Blackout mags

My current favorite AR-15 is this .300 Blackout SBR, There are many reasons I love this rig.

What I don't love is confusing mags.I did one. Luckly, nothing happened. I marked the mags with some blue masking tape but that not good enough. I was going to buy mags that were a different color but I already have a mountain of mags.

--I decided on paint and a stencil. I am thinking a classic B.
