Default Went to the shooting range today

Most but not all of the guns -





The day -









My brother helped me break in my Glock 19. His first day at the range too -




The victims -





The gun range was relaxed as hell. We were all the way in the back of the property pretty much doing whatever we wanted. Setting up coke cans on top of the targets and seeing who could knock them off first. Shooting shotgun shells we pinned to the targets. At one point one of the guys was hip firing his AK47 as fast as he could pull the trigger while slowly walking towards the target! Fun times were had by all. My brothers first time at a shooting range and he had a blast.

Did you guys at least make fun of the guy wearing flip flops to the range?

Looks like fun. Who was that MP5 clone made by? Vector? Also, some advice to the guys... Tell them to lean forward, not backwards, and put their weight on their front foot. That helps a ton in keeping the gun steady as well as controlling recoil, making followup shots a lot quicker

Nothing like a piping hot casing landing on exposed flesh.
