Live! From Awerbuck Day 2

I was way more tired yesterday. Personally, I think I was mentally whipped more than anything.

Correctamundo. I measured that project ten times before applying the Mark 1 Mod 0 hacksaw. It is well within legal specs.

Its a BAD little mo-fo. What I was doing in the photo, during our lunch break, was seeing how it prints at 50 yards with bear balls. I just whacked the barrel off and didn't bother to re-install a front bead; and it works great with shot; I had no problems dealing with the heavy steel plates at the Amite team 3-gun match last Saturday.

But rumor control has it that there will be a long-range slug target next go-around. I never intended this shotgun to be anything but a last-ditch, incredibly handy home defense weapon. Turns out it is a hoot to play with. But I needed to know where those bear balls would hit.

I wanted to put up a target, but Louis snorted and said "Shoot at the water bottle." Said water bottle was still on the berm where we left it yesterday. Okay... that's about SIXTY yards, but I'll give it the old college try.

The el cheapo Remington slugs were hitting about a foot high. The Federal F127 "good" slugs both impacted about an inch high (and an inch apart from each other), so I quit while I was ahead.

Bring it on, Wong brothers!!!

I'm going to pick up the new 390 in the AM, then I guess it will be time to hack the old one up.

From a stress level perspective, this is easy compared to the shotgun class. I am sure spanky will agree.

Yeah, I have been to a lot of differently formatted classes and this one is definietly relaxed and Laid back.

Shouldn't you two be busy rubbing each other down?

His lady friend is over, so I am all by myself.

Is this the famed 'dudeshooter'?

Yea...That's it! I shot this little mule and talk about a nice handling setup. LSP slipped some shells with punch in on me and loosened my toenails!

Absolutely.

Basic side stepping drill before we moved back, were forced to reload, and the targets were turned sideways and angeled on us.

Man, video sure does help you see your flaws.

Not that it is ANY excuse, but I personally found myself more concerned with running into the guy next to me than what I was aiming at. I'm gonna try to tune it out today.

And Sound, hurry the hell up with that RDO training! I'd love some followup drill days out at HI.

I also have the video of the rear knife assessing, but will only post with permission.

if it is me, you have my permission. If anyone can learn from my mistakes, it is worth the embarassment....
