Shot a box of it out of my Tristar this weekend, no feed issues. Had no issues w/ the TulAmmo as well.

Got my licence for pistols, revolvers and rifles a few days ago.
Bought myself a cheap 1975 FN medalist (175 euro) and a 1943 Mosin-Nagant to play with.

Took the FN to the range today, trigger is really crisp compared to the other .22's i have shot. (shot a colt 1911, the trigger is freaking terrible... Great looks tho but performance wise they are not worth the money imo)

Got some decent shots at 27 yards (25meters) for an amateur.



Next week i'm going to a dealer that has 2 nice .22 browning's for 150euro a pop. One of em has a really good grip for 1 handed shooting. I'm glad those are pretty cheap over here. Saw some US prices on those toys and....damn, they go for allot over there. Been looking at 9mm pistols but i have not seen something i'd get for target shooting, yet.

Picked up a Kimber Team Match 2 in 9mm a few weeks back while in Austin for my bday. Matches my 45. Took it to the range yesterday and ran 100 rounds through it at the 15 yard range. Pretty damn accurate even with me behind the trigger.

Can only dream of some of the cool things posted above.

I'm after one of these now -


Pretty cool by UK standards and the closest we can get to semi-auto centrefire. Normally out of my price range but I've been given advanced warning of a 2nd hand one that's going to be coming up very cheap - only 9mm but you can get them in .223 if cash isn't a problem. Meeting the dealer this thurs to have a go with it down the range!

Guy in the vid is pretty damn fast at acquiring targets.

I recently got one of these in 9mm. Had to de-burr a spot on the extractor to make it run like a champ but it just feels "right". Semi pricey at about $1400.00.

I shot a 8 round mag at 40 yards this weekend with this one and held about an 8 inch group. First time ever shooting it at more than 15 yards. Kind of impressed my blind self. First shot from the Kimber 45 this weekend took a ping pong ball off the top of a 2X2 post at 15 yards. Fun stuff. Shot a crapload of clay pigeons at 20 yards with handguns and at 50 yards with the AR15 and AR10. Was having so much fun we never made it to the 100 yard range.Smile
