Everyone knows that the range situation for shooting AR rifles in Memphis sucks. So, I want a pistol cartridge rifle that I can shoot alot. I have zero knowledge about these rifles, but I know that I want one in 357. I only plan to use it at the range and for home defense if needed. I would like to stay under $800. For what it's worth I plan use Hornady Leverevolution ammo. I have heard that it performs well in lever action rifles. While we are at it, please tell about the Mares Leg. I have seen one and I may want to get both riles. Thanks, Links2k

I hear what you are saying. I assisted loading a magazine and observed them. I knew that they novices. I was prepared to give them any assistance that they requested. Had I not been observing their behavior I would not have noticed the shell casing or the lady waving he pistol at me and the other three guys on the range. This type of stuff is occurring more frequently. I hope that I'm not running ouT of luck.

So, you know exactly what I'm talking about. Big fun!

I understand the cops actions. I can't understand why the guy opened the door.

Those of you who live near the mountains are so freakin' lucky...

Nice photos. I relaxed just looking at them. -
On the bright side we will be able to say that we were here when it happened.

That's what I heard him say, but you can't scare people by showing the entire video. When you are the greatest thing since sliced bread it's hard not to believe that all of your success is not entirely based on your own brilliance. Hard work and smarts plays a HUGE part in a individual's success, but I believe that luck and divine intervention also have a hand to play. Someone or something assisted in creating a environment conducive to success.

I love the game. I consider myself average. I find a way to play bogey golf on almost any course. I could be better if I practiced, but since I've gotten older practice sucks. I would rather play. My group makes it more interesting by making pocket change wagers and playing for a " winners belt" on Sunday evenings. The winner chooses the next weeks venue. We are just a bunch of middle aged guys having fun.

Yeah, It sucks that we no longer have that range. Never thought that this area would be without a public outdoor range .

At my house we don't even go to the door unless we are expecting company. Since we dont receive company at 1am any door that unexpectantly opens gets closed by .45 acp. Bedroom and kids doors will be closed by 00 buck.

Charges unlikely against man who shot robbers
Links2k replied to QuietDan's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
D*ck wads! The old guy did a good job. Only problem is that they will live to probably do it again when a judge lets them out of jail after only serving 3 months. -
Good point.

Recommendations on West TN Indoor Range?
Links2k replied to BigDaddyx4's topic in Training Discussions
I plan to visit Jackson with my AR. If they are anything like the guys in Memphis it will be a top shelf facility. -
The women weren't, but I sure that the shooters breast were after that brass hit her.
-
I placed a deposit and did some waiting when I first heard that they were coming out. The pistol arrived friday before last. The hard part is waiting for additional mags to become available.
-
Yeah, training with Chip is worth The price of admission.
-
It's not a big hit on me, but I always prefer to buy more hardware. I may put my 357 lever action rifle on hold and take the plung this year.

She was asking for it.

It was Range USA. This post was not a knock on them, because they have always treated me and my family with great customer service. We were on the small range because they had a large class this morning.

I went to the public range this morning to test my M&P Shield, M&P9mm and M&P22. While waiting to pay my fees I listened to the conversation between the clerk and a young lady renting range time. From what I could tell she had been there before as a minor. From her responses I could tell that the clerk was concerned about her capabilities/skills. He reminded her to keep the muzzle pointed down range and to come and get him if she had any issues. Before she leaves the counter she is joined by another younger looking woman they both get eyes and ears and proceed to the firing line. As luck would have it I am assigned the shooting position right next to them. I take my time to set up my area so that I could observe the young women. After a short time one of them ask for my assistance loading the .22 magazine and I happily assisted. The young lady that paid the clerk fired off a couple of rounds and then hands the pistol to the younger lady who is wearing a sun dress. The lady in he sun dress fired off two quick shots and then screams as a piece of hot brass falls down her dress. She wheels around toward me with the pistol still in hand and finger on the trigger. I'm screaming whoa, whoa...point that thing down range you just sweep everyone in here with that pistol. She places the pistol on the mat and says that she is done. The first shooter shoots a few more rounds and they leave. Sorry for rambling on, but wouldn't it be nice if the public range could be divided into areas for novices that could be supervised by range personnel and a area for more experienced shooters? Between having my target shot by people in the lanes next to me and the Russian roulette that you have to play just to get some practice the fees for MSSA are looking more affordable every time that I go to the range.

I can say that I'm very delighted with the Shield. The little M&P performed flawlessly with 250 rounds of Federal ammo and 50 rounds of Hornady Critical Defense ammo. The trigger was everything that it was advertised to be. The trigger had a good clean break and a nice reset. The slim grip felt almost like a 1911. The recoil was very light and the pistol offered very good accuracy. I plan to let my wife shoot it. If she likes it I will have to purchase another. My daily carry has been the G30, but I can see the Shield working its way into the rotation over the G26 when I want to go small and light.

Magazine Speed Loaders, Need Info
Links2k replied to runco's topic in Handgun Carry and Self Defense
I agree the Uplula is great for fast loading. I use Uplula for my pistols and I also have one for my AR mags. I just used them yesterday to load up a boat load of mags for whenever I decide to get off of my hump and head to the range.
