Go Shooting, in Texas


It's all very well to have firearms and some say that CHL holders have a duty to carry, but what's the use of that if you can't hit the side of a barn door with your weapon? With this in mind, I headed out to a friend's farm for some target practice.



First off, I wanted to see if a Glock 21 was effective against a cow skull. Guess what, it was. A small green paper eco-terrorist didn't do much better, either. Take that, green terr, and idolatrous heathen cow skull.



Then I clambered up on top of a derelict piece of agricultural machinery with an AR, and shot eco-terr #2. My groups, such as they were, were falling low right, which I blame on sloppy trigger pull and the sight's zero.

Don't Use This as a Helmet, Jackass

I shot better against an old metal bucket, curiously, but obviously need to put in some more range time to tighten things up.



Word to the wise. Don't use a zinc bucket as a helmet, it's not going to protect you, and the same goes for cow skulls. Sure, strap one on in the hope of terrifying your enemy, but don't be surprised when it fails to stop a bullet.

I love getting out in the clean country air and shooting.

Gun rights,

That terrorist cow (skull) showed the Caliphate your true intentions.

The thing is, a lot of these terrs are primitive, some say savages, and they think that cow skulls and associated ju-ju is going to save them. Today's range test proved that isn't true.

No, the cow skull's karma was not good today.

It lost the firefight...

Good enough I'd say! I need to get there and practice also. I've been doing dry fire but it's not the same as recoil.

Go for a shoot, Anonymous!

Looks like a well spent day. Not quite sure why we're at war with such fantastic weather.

I was thinking that too -- beautiful day, and almost too warm for a coat. Maybe Austin and Houston have paid a special tax we don't know about?
