Okay, who's been shooting recently?
I went out to the range today with my beloved --no-- ....
With my Cherished--nope...
With my often carried ..--uhhhhhhh--
with my sorta okay (yeah, that's it!) PT-99!
What's that? No wistful sigh of Envy?
Oh, that was a scoff then, was it??
Well, I thought that since I may be asked to qualify very soon with a Beretta 92, I'd better go ahead and practice with the closest thing in my collection. (you see the wise Virginians that are acquiring the DAO USPs are using 92s right now...).
I ran through two different self administered qualification courses with it. I passed both times . Then I blew through an extra box of ammo. I hardly ever shoot 9mm, and the gun actually got to be "fun" to shoot by the end of the session. I had a few jams, which were convenient only in that I got to refresh my familiarity with the manual of arms on the ol' Taurus.
All the talk lately about the Bren Ten made me feel like I needed to shoot some 10mm, so I ran about 50 rounds through the EAA Witness. The more I shoot this gun, the more I like it. In fact, if it weren't so heavy and I could get a few hi-caps, I might even consider it a carry option.
I also fired 15 rounds through the Scout, at 75-100 yards at a Tactical Ted, which was fun. Then, for comparison's sake I shot my CAR (with holo-site) at the same range/target. I was quicker with the Holosite, but not by much and both guns put the rounds where I wanted them to go.
That was probably my last session at the ol'range here in TN, at least for awhile.
