Good Job RN! Stay with the small stuff until you are comfortable AND proficient. Then you can move up to the larger stuff. Oh and tell your wife, that they ARE out there, and you never know when they will single out you or your family. The world is getting worse every day.

IF you choose to NOT protect yourself, you ARE choosing to be a victim.

Thanks Randy, I appreciate the input. Everything I know about pistols could fill a thimble...a thimble I would be totally incapabale of hitting with a pistol! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

I think I'll enjoy the SR a bunch. After some thousands of rounds, hopefully I can hit a barn!

It's not really that hard, I was hitting a barn after the first 500 rounds!

With conventional sights on a pistol, I have a problem lining up the square
notch rear with the square front post. My eyes just don't want to get things the way they should be. Now with a V rear sight and round post front, I do a LOT better.

Here is all you need to know about aiming a firearm (with iron sights)

Now of course, at longer ranges you WILL need to raise your front sight above the height of the rear sight (as he explains toward the end of the video)

AND if all else fails, ask JJ to explain it for you, I am sure that he can do a lot better job than I can. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

I tried to consolidate these posts all into one, so the Hijacking wouldn't look quite as bad.

Some Kuks have WAY to much curve for me, but that one of yours doesn't look to bad.


Crap! Sorry for hijacking your thread Gundog.

I'll ban myself for 8 hours starting in about another hour.

Fairness in moderating! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

How much Dan will be swayed by this thread..debatable! Kuk for us?? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/sad.gif" alt="" /> Time will tell!

Until then, kuks, pistols rifles...it's all good! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Might just need a zombie or two thrown in...

A Bolo type knife would also be cool~

[Linked Image from i280.photobucket.com]

didn't think about a bolo style blade... if Dan really did have concerns about wasting steel then a bolo would be pretty sweet to add to the line up. toss the regulator handle on it and make it thin and I'm all in.... would be my preference for a zombie blade. maybe even over a kukri....


JYD #82 yup...

Into this easily...but a kukri by Dan would look even better here, no? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
