Well, I did quite a bit actually. I cleaned another gun, a shotgun in fact :face_vomiting: But it needed maintenance bad. I then refilled my 12ga ammo can that ran dry and realised that I may have shot a bit more shotgun than anticipated over the last few months. Seriously, access to steel and new lever/button shotties are a game changed for me. From I hate this shit, to I need more ammo.

What else, blah, blah, blah, same, same, blah, blah, blah, but! The highlight being my oldest is now officially allowed to join us at a big boy pew club, so shooting we did. A lot. Super happy. Something we can do together, so pretty stoked about that.

I can’t wait, my eldest is 9. Missus isn’t keen and fuckheads in govco want to change the age to 12 but I honestly think he could out shoot me on Wednesday

Why did I say Wednesday? Who knows?

Younger they learn the better. I think it reaffirms responsibility, when taught properly.

7 posts were split to a new topic: Supadukes new toys.

After a very long wait, including several months on back order and then the BS of waiting for PTAs , it all came together today.

Picked up some new toys and headed straight for the range.

I actually got out to the club today after no shooting for a few weeks.
Shot a couple of Los Alamedos matches this morning, it was bloody good fun.

I put a shotgun in the ute, then got it back out and put it back in the safe.
That is all.

I had a go at the bear for the first time in two months (appendix exploded and I didn’t want to shoot on painkillers), wasn’t allowed to use 9mm because I brought jacketed ammo

Anyway I think the bear would have been pissed off at least

And I got club support for the Glock and PDP

And sighted in the cz515

Happy days

I shot a couple of quick Tyro matches yesterday morning before it got too hot.
I spent an hour or so this morning practicing for Los Alamedos, shooting left handed and trying different ways of shooting around the barriers. I was the only shooter who turned up this morning so I was able to fuck around and have a bit of a go at whatever I liked.
Came home and organised my reloading set-up in the new shed and this evening I’ve cranked out a hundred rounds.
Not a bad week considering its only monday.

I shot a rapid fire match this morning, I came first in centrefire and second overall.
Not bad, there were however only 3 of us and the other 2 had .22s!

Do you ever have one of those days?

Those days when you know the gun gods are looking down on you and smiling!

Well, I’ve had one today… I had one of those 4 new gun days.
This morning for breakfast I bought @juststarting Styer M95 and this Ruger.


I can’t possess the pistol just yet, but I’m getting close. Headed down to Coffs to buy a pistol safe, need to get that installed, inspected and get my event number (or some shit) before I can put in my PTA’S and I stumbled on these two gems…

Bottom one is a KFC single barrel 12ga, i got that because Bentaz.
But the top is also a 12ga, well a .729 smootbore, its only a cheap Indian reproduction but definitely a shooter.
Time to break the molds out.
Gotta put some PTA’s in tonight and hopefully get them on thursday.
