    range trip

    Took some time to go to the range today to shoot some of my yet to have been shot handguns.
    The gun list included the following: Iver Johnson 5 shot .32 S&W Short revolver, NAA WASP .22 Magnum, Inglis High Power, Belgum made Israeli Police trade-in High Power, made in 1952, Styer Hahn Model 1912 made in 1916, S&W Model 59, S&W Model 469, and a second range visit with my recently overhauled Colt Combat Commander.

    I shot 10 rds with the Iver Johnson, 15 rds with the Wasp, 16 rounds through the Styer Hahn, two magazines through each High Power, two magazines through each S&W auto, and 30 rds through the Combat Commander. The S&W 469 which is a bobbed and chopped Model 59, shot very well.

    A good range trip; several nice surprises; I was a bit disappointed with the WASP but then I was shooting at 10 yards. All the guns were shot at 10 yds with the exception of the Combat Commander; I shot the CBP qual course of 30 rounds fired from 3-1/2, 7, and 15 yards.

    Here are the targets:

    That looks like fun. I need to get some range time in myself. It's cheep therapy.

    I fear that until a select few can profit from not treading on me, nothing will change.

    Where did you get the stripper clips for the Steyr? I have a few originals from some old packages of 9mm Steyr, but usually I make mine from Czech Model 48 sub-gun stripper clips. I mostly use 9mm Largo in mine because it's easier to find.
