I got popped in the face by hot brass before... I shall not make the same mistake again!

Ouch!  Hot brass is the worst.  I somehow always manage to have it pop down the collar of my jacket.  Dx

He's pretty skilled.  Guns are his life.

Hey, it gave itself a bullseye, didn't it?

Haha, yup!  This was definitely a better alternative to throwing it away.

Awesome action shot!

Thanks!  I've always wanted to do shots like this, but the military and business-owned ranges have all these rules and regulations that always prevented me from doing it.

Your range looks a lot like any of mine

Lucky! I wish I could access this area a lot more often, but it's a few states away. Dx

I couldn't help noticing some .203 (?) casings on the ground ...
Any news on that ?

Could be, we were shooting his Mosin Nagant as well.

Sweet! I haven't shot a Sig yet, how is it?

proteus2 In reply to tanikel [2012-07-10 21:58:12 +0000 UTC]

Sweet.And beautiful.

Heavy slide, min recoil, but the first -DA-shot
is a bitch.

And no stoppages, altough it needs piano fingers...

Cheers

You should try shooting a P.38 in double-action.

Cool shot! The colors are vibrant and sharp. Is that a Glock?

tanikel In reply to quiltingrobbie [2012-07-05 18:06:16 +0000 UTC]

Thank you. No, it's a M1911. I'm not a fan of full-sized gun since I have smaller hands, but it's a pretty nifty weapon.

quiltingrobbie In reply to tanikel [2012-07-05 20:55:45 +0000 UTC]

I favor the gen 2 Glock 19. I have a Colt 1911 but dont enjoy shooting it as much.

galactica1actual [2012-07-03 17:54:59 +0000 UTC]

Nice shot. I like the slight background blur. You caught this shot at just the right moment, as the slide was cycling and the case was ejected.

tanikel In reply to galactica1actual [2012-07-04 18:07:08 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! That's exactly what I was trying to catch with this shot. I'm thinking of doing a longer exposure with a flash next time so that you can follow the arc of the expended shell while my 'brother' is still frozen and sharply focused.
