Range Time

Yesterday was the 11th anniversary of the blessed union between Mamamontezz and I....so how did I spend it? Why I went to the range with Alex; our friend from the People's Monarchy of Britain, OF COURSE!
And before all you readers of the feminine persuasion excoriate me, Mama had to work anyway, and I went with her full blessing....well, went to see Alex, anyway, the range time is another story :(

Here's Alex holding some much-desired toys....as he said, WHAT a COUNTRY!

And here he is right before killing the green invader from IhateUstan.....

And I think he did a pretty thourough job of it too! LOL That one head shot was my turn at the AR-15 varient he tried out.....The shop owner and I TOLD him not to rent it...sure enough, his little fling with it lit a fervent desire to own one of his very own....impossible for a poor college student....especially one here only on a limited student visa.
But at least it gave him yet another reason to want to emigrate! LOL

I was happy trying out a brand I've never seen before, a Para Ordance LDA, in my favorite .45ACP caliber.

And I found it to be a true pleasure to shoot. note the head shots...quick fire at roughly 20 feet. Not too bad, considering my lack of range time in the last two months and with an unfamiliar weapon.

Got some vid of our playtime too, but since I don't have a host that will let me download it, I guess it will have to remain locked in my files as a private pleasure.....

Mamamontezz was a little disconcerted about the amount of money I spent.....disconcerted, HELL, she was PISSED! I guess I'll have to find a way to appease her rage...any suggestions ladies? I would take HER to the range ASAP, a little shooting always calms her down.... but that would only add to the money woes....

At least if I suddenly disappear, you'll know the reason why.....
