Range Report for 10/12/2008

Our trip to the range today was a lot of fun. When we got there, the place started getting really busy. We were glad to see the activity pick up after the usual summertime slowdown. We saw families shooting together, but not as many kids as we have seen in the past.

Firearms Inventory

  • Glock 30 .45ACP
  • Para Warthog .45ACP
  • Glock 26 9x19mm
  • Smith & Wesson 908 9x19mm
  • Smith & Wesson 686 .357 magnum
  • Remington 870 20 gauge
  • Remington 870 12 gauge

We generally start out with the handguns and finish with the shotguns. Today, we just mixed it up with the handguns and switched off between the 12 and 20 gauge. I didn’t count the number of rounds we shot, but it was on a par with our usual, I’m sure. For sure there were 100 rounds of .45 ACP through each of the Para Warthog and the Glock 30. We finished with 25 rounds through each of the shotguns.

As an aside, when I dismantled the 20 gauge shotgun for cleaning, I really hacked myself up getting it back together. Damsel did 4 band-aids of first aid on my fingers and hands. My fingers are just a little big for the 20 gauge – I have no problem with the 12 gauge even though the edges on the receiver are just as sharp.
