I used to carry guns back in the day for all the wrong reasons. I stopped for years and learned how to deal with certain things without a gun. Mentally deal with them anyway.
Years later i decided to tap back in.. but this time in a more mature state of mind. So i went and got my CPL(Michigan conceal) and put a range on my camping/bug out/wild out chunk of land i have out here.
I traded my car hobby for the firearms hobby. I shoot a ton. AK's, AR's, Shotguns, Lever guns, sniper rifles, pistols, suppressed, un-surppressed, both eyes open, one eye closed, reticles, red dots, 1x,2x,3x,1-8x, stocks, braces, short barrel, long barrel.... lol. All of it.
My range has multiple targets with a current extended range at 300 yards. We bet on who can hit the gong at 150 yards with a M&P Shield. Shit like that.
It was a bummer when ammo got expensive last year... so we quit doing all the ninja stuff and started long range iron site shots. Its almost as much fun doing that then it is running around dumping rounds.
Anyway.. thought i'd share.
