Thanks for the reply. How old are your kids? I saw a guy OCing a glock there with his son. He asked me about my G33, and was extremely pleasant. They appeared to be on a hike or something (no targets/ammo boxes). It's great to see kids getting out and hiking/shooting instead of sitting on the couch with the video game controller.

13 & 15. The 13yo loves the Nagant but its a little much for him but that grin says it all, he's hooked and I can't keep enough 22 ammo on hand for the 2 of them. My daughter likes my 1911 and the 10/22.  They only seeme 2x's a year, so we spend a great deal of time outdoors.

FYI: Cabela's has .22 Federal 250 round boxes on sale this week for $13.

How nice! Those 10/22s are great! I have a fiberforce stock coming UPS to my door today, or so says the UPS website! We'll see when I get home. This weekend I am going to install the stock, polish the externals from black to a brushed aluminum look, fix the sights and loading tube, and polish the internals. Should be fun. Man those are fun guns....

Take a chill pill. I did nothing to you. You are rude and inconsiderate. If you don't like what I have to say then you are free to exercise your back button. I personally don't think that I am on a "high horse" by not wanting to get shot by some drunk retard with an AK, or hit by a ricochet from some idiot popping of shots at rocks. I DO , however, think that you are WAY out of line with your comments.

waaa.

you didn't say they were drunk you said they were "drinking beer"

don't like what i say? you are free to not start threads. :celebrate

Alcohol, even in small quantities, impairs judgment. That is the very first thing to go when consuming any alcohol. By the time you feel the physical and psychological effects of alcohol, your judgment is severely impaired. This is not good when operating and handling a loaded firearm. If you like to drink and handle guns, so be it...you are probably doing society a favor if your attitude and intelligence in the real world follows suit.......

Thats really just political correctness bull@#$%.  There is nothing wrong with a beer/ very moderate alcohol while shooting.  relax, enjoy, be safe.

There is a difference between people debating a topic and not agreeing with each other, and what you did... Which was to come into a thread and immediatly use foul language with the intent to insult someone that gave a well worded opinion. Or in simple words you could understand, be an a** hole for no reason.

It's a Marlin 60. Very similar, but a tube fed gun.

Sorry man, I guess I didn't get that point in your initial post. Some how I missed it. How could I have missed the "don't worry about it" in "

I try to:

    Point out stupid where possible
    Leave when stupid exceeds my personal comfort zone

By the way, I never shoot back toward the mounds by the entrance for the very reason you mentioned.  You might just nail a bear (45/70 that is) on an ATV!:shock:

It sure is annoying to drive that far to be disappointed.  Sorry you had a bad experience.


Yeah and that would get you into this situation or this one   I haven't ridden Capitol even once this year.

Yes, my cousin hauled a guy out who went down to set up targets and some gang banger types started shooting their AKs.  Hit him in the leg.  Put him in the back of his truck  and took him to the hospital or meet an ambulance.  Dont remember which.  That was a few years ago.

Another guy had his eardrum blown out by his buddy who thought it would be funny to shoot his 12 gauge about 3 feet behind him at ear level.  Apeared to be GI types, drinking beer. 

When it was really crowded, cars parked all the way across the back (before the gate was up) Everyone called a cease fire and went down to put up targets, (I stayed back, dont go down range there unless I am alone/amongst friends) Some old guy just started shooting a revolver at his target when only about half the people came back.  After everyone yelled at him to ceasefire, he just kinda shrugged and said sorry.  not an oh my god I almost just shot someone sorry, more like an oops I ate the last cookie sorry.

I think my last time there, a guy shooting a desert eagle had a jam, couldnt cycle the slide, hammer didnt set off the round.  pointed directly at me 10 feet away trying the clear it.  luckily one of us usually is looking out for idiots, so he let me know what was happening and we stepped back until the guy gave up and put it away, then we left.

I know of at least 4 other pits to shoot at 10 minutes from there.  That is why I haven't shot there in years.  Don't PM me to ask where they are, I will not give up my shooting spots unless I know you are a responsible shooter, who will clean up your mess.

I can generate maps of mountain roads and National Forest roads with Streets and Trips.  I've found a lot of great places to shoot this way.  Just give me an approximate area you want a map of.  Might want to email the request to me directly in case I don't check back on this thread.
