    At the range

    What's wrong with this picture?
    Nothing that I can see, except maybe an ammunition supply running down and a brass bag filling up too full.
    The poor rimfire Trooper's already seen over 500 rounds through it in it's first two weeks and it looks like it will only get worse.
    Fellow Colt owner-friend Fred and I couldn't put it down, not as long as there were another six in the box. We only stopped because it began to need a cleaning pretty badly.
    The workhorse Python didn't get the weekend off, either. I found it necessary to clean the chambers by filling them with .357 ammunition and firing it. That's how you do it, right?

    Running in the twelfth point, 600 volts on the meter, nothing but green boards.

    Well done!

    It is hard to name anything that is more fun than running through LOTS of .22s on a nice afternoon, particularly when one is enjoying a fine firearm in the process.

    Looks like a small slice of heaven to me.

    I'll tell you what's wrong with this picture, Bill.

    Reminds me to get the DB out next week instead of the Python.

    Re: At the range

    Some of the most fun I have had shooting was to take out a pr of Colt 22 Sa revolvers and a Marlin 39. Went through a brick of 22s in an afternoon. What a shame that new shooters think everthing is made out of plastic and polymers.
