On our last session at the target range for the year, we left the 9mm pistols at home and took the .357 magnum and the .38 special Smith & Wesson revolvers. In addition to the revolvers and our shotguns, we also took the Glock 30 and Damsel’s Para Warthog. The hand guns are shown ready for cleaning in Damsel’s photo below.
When it was my turn to put up a target for my .45 caliber Glock 30 pistol, I surprised myself when I got 9 out of 10 rounds in the red and black part of the target. Four rounds were in the red, two grazed the red and three were in the black (the one at the left below the 8 is a double).
I shot one round which missed badly and nicked the bottom of the target (out of the frame).
If it’s true (like Robb Allen says) that Sarah Brady cries when you hit a bullseye, I wonder if she snivels when you come close?
I hope so.
Unless you reload them yourself (and we haven’t started yet), you take your chances when purchasing reloaded rounds. 
Today, I put about 90 rounds through her and she only jammed a couple of times. I got off forty or fifty rounds without a jam at one point. Anyhow, I’m sure that she’ll soon smooth out and start to perform like a competition pistol. I’m keeping the faith ’cause she sure is pretty.
“The second amendment gives the individual citizen a means of protection against the despotism of the state. Look what it refers to: “The security of a free state.” The word “free” should be underlined because that is what they are talking about and that is what the Constitution is about–a free nation and a free people, where the rights of the individual are preeminent. The founding fathers had seen, as the Declaration of Independence tells us, what a despotic government can do to its own people. Indeed, every American should read the Declaration of Independence before he reads the Constitution, and he will see that the Constitution aims at preventing a recurrence of the way George III’s government treated the colonies.”
