Re: Sandals or flip flops while shooting

Who would rest a .22 on their toe? I assume it is a thing that someone has seen on a trap range and thought they should have in the briefing. They also mention not placing your hands over the end of the barrel with the butt resting on the ground. It was strange shooting my first NRL22 match at OGC....

At OGC for the monthly NRL22 match the match director even mentions this practice of trap shooters and notes that it will result in a DQ from the match.

Re: Sandals or flip flops while shooting

That makes sense, shotgun guys are always resting their gun barrels on their toes :D Know a guy that used to rest his shotgun on the toe of his boot. He had an extra leather pad with a ring around it so the barrel wouldn't slip off his boot. He will remain nameless, but he used to coach a successfu...

Re: Sandals or flip flops while shooting

I don't know what FITASC is, but assume it's a sanctioning body for some kind of match. Their match their rules as far as I'm concerned, but I think it's crappy that someone didn't point it out to the shooter before they stepped up to the line. It is the international sporting clays association I b...

Sandals or flip flops while shooting

I was up ice fishing in Canada last weekend. Fishing was a bit slow so stories were told. My brother-in-law told me that his buddy went to a FITASC event and, while wearing shorts and flip flops, stepped up to the line. He was immediately DQed. He was told they wear long pants and shoes. His entry f...

Re: .22 LR case head separation

As was mentioned probably out of battery.

Has the chamber been cleaned recently to remove any carbon ring?

She was born September 22, 1979.

DNR Firearms Safety Certification is required of anyone born after December 31, 1979 to purchase a hunting license in Minnesota.

She does not need one.

Re: TPT Almanac-Pediatric Gun Violence

TPT Alamanc did a segment “Alarming Pediatric Gun Violence Statistics”. Dr. Kharbanda: We don’t have a good funding source for gun storage and a way to supervise or police it. Now there’s a question. If they pass a firearms storage bill how are they going to enforce it? Answer is they can’t. I spec...

Did you ever read the Durham report? Did you listen to any of his testimony the other day?

Re: Don't do this...

The last time I was in Bill's Gun Shop & Range, some clown was playing with a rifle like it was a toy; even presumably unloaded, the lack of muzzle discipline made me flinch. I asked a shop employee to tell gun newbie to knock it off, and the employee had some quiet but apparently very firm wor...
