Lol. I've had a few bites from firearms too.

[Sara]

Also, do not wear tank tops to a range. My left boob was on fire for about 6 seconds. That mark better go away.

[Fundguy1]

Now that's an issue i haven't had a problem with. Can i help applying some ointment?

[Sara]

Ouch. You can see me put my gun down as soon as that brass landed down my shirt

[Fundguy1]

Stick to tight t-shirts.

I bought smaller targets this time. Academy was out of the larger ones I used last time. I also shot at 3.0, 3.5, and 4.0 yards this time. Even with my pinky bleeding out, I still think I do okay.

[Fundguy1]

Aim small miss small.

Those stupid 115 grain Winchester bullets were shit. My gun jammed 3 times using those cheap ass bullets. After I went through the box of those, I used my 147 law enforcement ammunition. Much cleaner shots through the target. Never once jammed my gun

[Sara]

I put on my buddies jacket here. Amateur move, I kept readjusting my grip at first. Again my pinky was hurting SO BAD. Also you can see how small my targets were compared to the guys shooting next to me

[Sara]

Took my whole gun apart and cleaned it.

[Sara]

Last one for today

Finding which brand of food your firearm likes & doesn't like to eat is part of your training. As a rule, I always stay away from Remington because I've always had bad luck with it in .22 and .45. Never tried 9mm as a result.

He wanted me to use these bullets and not waste my self defense rounds. After the third jam, I said fuck it, I'm using my good bullets.

[Sara]

It was $22 at academy for 100 Winchesters vs. the $50 I paid for 50 bullets of the 147 grain bullets I previously bought.

[bosstones]

I'm of the belief that it is okay to train using your HD round(s) of choice. I wouldn't use them for standard range use since the cost will unnecessarily add up, but occasional use for handling purposes is okay IMHO.

Smith & Wesson Airlite scandium in 357 magnum.And yes, it has quite a kick.

Now this is my kind of thread

[Fundguy1]

Use cheapest at the range. If it jams then you get practical clearing jams which can be life saving if it happens when it matters. Also use a clip or two of the defense rounds you carry to be confident they won't jam and keep your carry ammo fresh. At least that's what I do. Ointment offer still available.

I've never had a glock jam on me. And i buy the cheapest (brass FMJ) range ammo i can find. I'm not sure i've even heard of a glock being finicky about ammo. Weird.

What was the jam? Fail to eject, fail to feed, stove pipe?

That's going to be there for a while. Had one land on my thumb and didn't fling it off for a second, that burn mark lasted for 4 or 5 months. I can still just barely see it.
