What gun stuff did you do today?

[B52]

Took my new to me BRN-180SH 300 Blackout to the neighbor’s range for testing and sighting in. Using some of my existing Blackout loads, I found a couple it liked. I then set out a steel target and had fun just smacking steel. Figured out the adjustable gas system. I did find it shot smaller groups with a flash hider than without. I had brought a Ruger flash hider just to cover the bbl threads and found it liked the flash hider.

how does it like your suppressor?

how does it like your suppressor?

Other than one shot in the yard, haven’t shot it suppressed yet. Found in setting “2” that nothing would blow the bolt back enough to properly lock bolt open on the last shot unsuppressed so have been shooting supersonic unsuppressed with setting “1” to lock back bolt on empty mag. Suspect unsuppressed supersonic would work with a setting somewhere between 1 and 2 which doesn’t exist.

Wasted fuel driving around looking for 45 acp snake shot. Picked up a box of sd carry ammo. Did see small pistol primers for 7.99 for 100. View attachment 274230

Sent off my slide (M&P 2.0) to Wager Machine works last Thursday. Got it back today, they did great and I've got my 507c ACSS mounted and ready to go. Installed an Apex trigger while slide was being cut. Super excited to get out to the range.

I got my car back from the wife and she stayed with it and joined me at the range ,she just did a 4 hour firearm safety class . She probably put 50 /75 rounds out to-day ,.22 at class and 38 sp in the python 2.5 with me ,she didn't do too bad either for newbee ,got home and said in response to cleaning the guns "thats man work " .......ya know i really should have let her shoot 357 magnums in the python and i should have made her shoot the sw 340 pd . ......we had fun though she's a keeper

I'm jealous. Have been trying to get my wife to tag along to the range and have gotten nowhere. On the bright side she agreed to let me get a 10/22 on the premise she might enjoy shooting it. No idea if she'll enjoy it but I sure as hell do.

forgot to review SW 340 PD .....357 /5 shot /DA only hammer less . Out of the box it needed to be cleaner and better oiled ,the front sight pin could have been driven in flush but it does not need to go back . This lil snubski 1.88 barrel weights in at 12 oz unloaded ,i have no complaints about the feel of the action . I put 20 rounds of 38 special through it and is quite manageable then 20 rounds of 357 hornady 125 gr FTX critical defense and brother it gets intense ...really intense but manageable . I put all 40 rounds into center mass at 10 feet that is all this thing does ,its not for plinking at all . You treat the front sight like a red dot ,put it on center mass then detonate the round into the threat at bad breath/get off of me range .Grips and 38 + p I think would tame /calm it but that is not what I bought it for . I will CC it in the summer wearing shorts and t shirt as a pocket gun ...a nuclear pocket gun . btw I carry 2 speed loaders and have 20 ready rounds in the car . Carrying in the pocket you really do not feel it but i did pay attention first time out to-day [driving/eating out ] that it did not want to come out of the pocket [no issues there either] , i do have a garrett holster IWB coming for it too.

Crow blaster, Back in action! Got it repaired. Turkey choke. At 25 feet puts the wad in the target. Walmart cheap #8 low brass. Fast as I could pull the trigger. Rough and tumble screw around 12ga.

My daughter wanted to go to the Renaissance fair today. I made a quick stop in gulf coast guns and loaded up on some snake shot and some self defense ammo. Boy were they busy.

 

[Rebel_Rider1969]

Busy gun day. Tested 12ga repair, Zeroed carbon 15, tested snake shot 45acp, setup spare battery pack for my thermal. ** snake shot cycles in the xds.!!

Hand loaded with a Lee Loader kit some 45-70 Government rounds to try out some loadings w/ Acme 300 grain lead bullets

 

[Jester896]

I missed the first muzzle threading messing with a safe on the way

I keep clicking on the picture but it won't open.

No pix from me. It's a lee and red in color. 70's vintage.

 

[Jester896]

I didn't remember a 2 handle Lee press and wanted to see a picture
then it dawned on me..I think you might be talking about their old hand press. They still make them and are around $70 new.
