Plinking With The New Guns

Wednesday, May 7th, 2008

Please excuse my poor video editing (and marksmanship).

We went shooting last weekend, here’s some “highlights.”

Aurora shot her brand new Kel-Tec PF9 for the first time. She wasn’t quite ready for the recoil, but by the end of the day, she was shooting much better (I probably should have gotten video of that, too…)

Mike just bought a Springfield XD 40, so he needed to put a few rounds through it and make sure it works.

I am still breaking in my Smith & Wesson M&P Compact 9mm. (Awesome gun).

My brother Bart, his wife Raquel and Mike’s dad whose name escapes me came along, too.

I’d also like to publicly apologize to Bart for making fun of his need to practice in the video. Also, the black rifle you see in the video is his Mossberg .22.

Mike’s dad brought the 50 caliber black powder rifle that Aurora shoots at the end. He also brought a fun revolver that shoots the 22 magnums. I forgot to get video of that.

Gun Porn? (Naked Firearm )

Sunday, April 6th, 2008

I’ve been shooting many times throughout my life. I grew up with guns in the house, and every year at the family reunion, we’d gather up a group of cousins and uncles and go a’ blasting.

I finally decided it was time to start bringing my own piece.

So here’s the new gun. It’s a Smith & Wesson M&P 9mm compact.

My attempt at “artistic” gun porn:

The gun shoots great, but as you can see, I’m not that great of a shot. Guess I need more practice. Target courtesy ZombieHunters.org, by the way, the forums at zombie hunters is where I picked up the term gun porn.

The gun came with two twelve round clips, and Smith & Wesson was offering a $50 + 2 more clips rebate. That adds up to a sweet deal.
