Today was a great day
« on: 04/01/10 07:14PM »
I rode the gixxer to Greensboro. My sister saw a snake yesterday so I took the 40 cal Glock with me. I hate snakes. RIP

If you can hit a snake that small with a 40 cal, you're a pretty good shot. I've only been to the range once, but I was having problems hitting an 8" target from 10 yards. :)

Years ago I tried shooting a snake with a Glock 9mil. I emptied a 17rd magazine and don't think I hit him. I've shot the 40 cal now twice. And I was probably 10-20 feet away.

Sister was trying to clean up a junk pile and carry it to the dump. Wood, shingles,carpet.I guess that was the snake's home.

We shoot the water moccasins out of our pond with a .22.......from about 50 yds away. I'm a pretty good shot ;D

Yeah, I'm a lot better with a scoped rifle than I am with a handgun. I forget exactly, but I think I was only about two or three inches off center at 100 yards with ProTip's rifle.

No, I guess it's not quite the same.  :)
