If that was open sights you got way better eyes than I do! Either way that would make that a damn good group for that rifle!

We used to do a variation of kick the can gig to see how long we could keep it up in the air. someone would toss a can up at about 45deg angle, best I every did was 6 rounds in air before a miss. Its becomes a pretty small target by that point. lol






Yes it was open sites, but the target was shinny.
Six in the air is pretty good shooting.
Right you were talking about the 30-30 weren't you?
Shooting the 03A3 was kind of boring, the range was only 100yds and it was too accurate to make that a challenge.


No way in hell could I do that now days! LOL That was when I had a gun implant! [8D]

The a3. Its been like years since I was heavy into guns and forgot a lot, but I believe you are getting down to 1moa which imo is very good for an a3, which to me means you have one that is in excellent condition and I assume its bedded? Id be curious to hear what it would do with a scope shooting down range. Oh and are you reloading or shooting stock?

Never cared for the 3030, good brush gun though.




I shoot stock.
Under a 100 yards the 30-30 is fine, and it handles better than most other guns. I am partial to a lever gun because you never have to pull either the gun or your eyes from the target. I know that goes for a auto loader but they shoot to fast and if it really counts things slow down for me so I shoot more times than I care to. I once shot an animal 4 times before it reacted to the first round.

I generally ignor his petty crap. I didn't on this thread (apologies to all). I couldn't resist going at it over his rediculas claims of supernatural marksmanship.

I got someone on the big toe with a water balloon today, while running. Does that count?

See you were aiming a center body mass missed your target point and still got a hit. Good show.

Bama RealOne thanks... My claim to fame is nowhere as good as that. Mine was an ability to put 8 out of ten rounds under a 3 inch spotter shooting prone at 500 yards with an M14 and peep sites... I did that once but i could consistently get at least 5 of of 10. It was my best position. I could do it both right and left handed. In boot camp back in the mid 60's your first qualification had to be right handed. After that the other two times I qualified I could shoot my natural left handed.

Butch

If you are going to learn to shoot you should learn to shoot with both hands.
Left handed with an M14 could be a little awkward unless it ejects both up and to the right, never fired one. That is one reason I like the pre 70 model 94 it ejects straight up and is easy to use with either hand.

That is pretty good.
Of course I know people who are a lot better than I am.




kdsub -> RE: Does self defense allow you to beat someone to death"? (4/17/2016 8:35:24 PM)

lol... I used to get hot casings down the back of my shirt when on the range when shooting left handed.

I got a perfect score in basic but that was no big deal, it only at about 70 yards with a crappy M16 with silhouttes. We actually had a guy who failed to qualify which only took 44 out of 75, said the recoil got to him, with a M16.




kdsub -> RE: Does self defense allow you to beat someone to death"? (4/17/2016 8:47:52 PM)

lol... when we switched over to M16's the first thing they made us do was plant the stock on our tongues and shoot a burst. We didn't like them they kept jamming with just a small amount of dirt on the locking lugs.

In my outfit if your pattern was consistent down to the left you would clear your weapon... put it to your shoulder while the instructor kicked the barrel slamming the stock against the shoulder. That usually stopped the shooter anticipating the recoil because of the pain. If jerking the trigger instead of squeezing you got your trigger finger bruised in the receiver. No jerking with a sore finger.

I had a 9mm go down the front of my shirt once, kind of distracting.

How could the recoil of an M16 get to you? It had only a minutly greater recoil that a .22.
You want recoil, I had a 5.5 pound 12 ga, now that could kick.
I am assuming the shoulder routine was with the M14.




kdsub -> RE: Does self defense allow you to beat someone to death"? (4/17/2016 8:55:32 PM)

Yep... I loved that weapon... I liked the old BAR's and M1's as well... Just did not like loading the M1 from the top though.

Try shooting a slug out of a choked 10 gauge ... when you are 11 years old...lol. My uncle took me wolf hunting, yes there was a time, and did not realize the shotgun was choked... until I split the barrel and got knocked on my butt.

Ouch. That had to hurt.
What's wrong did you have a problem with M1 thumb?

We also had a guy turn and point his loaded M16 down the firing line, he had to get permission from the closest man to avoid being recycled.

It might be a difference in when we served or where we did basic (I was in California, after all).

"Fast Freddie" was a target on the range that went up and back down in .3 seconds.

We needed 36 out of 40 targets to qualify and that bastard caused more than one recycle. It took me seven and a half hours to qualify with the M16- A1A, but I never liked rifles because they were too close to my face (A friend of mine had gotten his face singed by an Norinco AK-47 that jammed a round in the barrel and blew back into his face).

Now, with my .40 pistol ... I was always close to perfect (95%). Even with my .50, I used to score 90%.

NEVER give Michael a rifle (except maybe a shotgun for "hip" shots and, let's face it, you don't really "aim" a shotgun; you just point it in a general direction LOL).

I always prefered long guns, but it is real hard to carry them concealed so I had to get more accustomed to handguns. I still like revolvers better, I have more faith in them. Of course autoloaders are easier to conceal. In the "winter" (I am in Alabama after all) I often carry a peacemaker clone.




BondageersT -> RE: Does self defense allow you to beat someone to death"? (4/18/2016 3:11:16 AM)

surely this topic is now worn out like all the old users ...

I am 27 and have a Glock 17, for my job. good day. usa.




SMgirl66 -> RE: Does self defense allow you to beat someone to death"? (4/18/2016 3:40:32 AM)

Loll well since here in aussie we don't all have guns (although it was fun holding and shooting a handgun in the states)
Yep if someone broke into my house you better believe in defending myself or my family i would not stop until that person was no longer moving and considering i have a pretty bad temper (i control it) i would probably beat that person to death
If you in my house and i haven't invited you, your a threat and i will take you out!!!!!!

Shooting up in the air with a handgun is only a good idea for chairborn rangers.
Jesus you are phoquing stupid.

Yet someone hitting a similar size target at four times the distance with a handgun is, to you, believable.[8|]

I got someone on the big toe with a water balloon today, while running. Does that count?


It not only counts but it's believable.

Certainly more believable than keeping a can airborn with a pistol[8|]
Jesus you are phoquing stupid.
