Now that we have the formalities out of the way, my hubby  at his blog: SENIOR'S MESS did an outstanding post last night about our Excel Food Prep list that we use. He meticulously developed it and did a in depth post on the subject. I recommend you check it out if you want to get your food preps better organized. Its always nice to  know what exactly what you have and for how many days.

Hurricane Sandy is off our coast and we are enjoying cloudy skies and wind. I do pray for those folks in the mid-Atlantic and northeast who are in her sights. They say a 100 year storm is in the making. Stock up and get prepared now.
So with our weather today being kind of crummy, Senior and I took off to the gun range. It has been a little while since our last day there, and he has been wanting to try out the new Blackout 300 he built.
here is a sampling of my groupings :

This is with my Glock--okay so I got a few shots in the black..

 

 

With my Ruger 10/22 and the Archangel Conversion

yea I think I killed the guy !

 





What is Your Favorite Gun ?

Today over on the "Anything About Guns Blog" they are asking what is your favorite gun to shoot and why?

The only weapon to serve as: Judge, Jury and Executioner...

For me, My All time favorite is My Taurus Judge. It is completely Bad @$$ .  I use to carry it as my concealed gun, but as much As I love him, it was just too heavy. So that is when I got my Glock. Now my Judge is used as a home defense gun, as it takes both 410 shotgun shells and .45 Colt. . It  has a  rifled barrel, so it doesnt come under the  ultra-restricted classification of a short barreled shot gun, As long as I use .45 in it, I can freely shoot it at my indoor range.

 I have taken it to a private out door range on several occassions and shot spaghetti squash and watermelons with it, Doing this gave me the advantage of seeing what shooting with a shotgun shell at close range can do to  a potential attacker. The Judge renders a different kind of stopping trauma because the energy developed by the pellets is more broad and instantaneous...In other words: It creates one heck of a mess and can certainly ruin a persons day.

So, now I pass the question off to all my good followers and those who are not...You have heard about my favorite gun, what is yours?

Wednesday is Range Day....

Hi Everyone .. Now that I am no longer keeping the little tyke on a regular basis, and my kids are in school until 200. I am free to have some "Me" time. So I have designated Wednesdays as my new range day. A day for me to go in to my local gun range, expend some brass and let out some stress.

Today Senior came with me, and we shot pistols. I think its funny to see the young guys in there blowing wads and wads of brass. Today was no different, there was a group of 4 young men, all with guns layed out every where like they own the place.  They were talking  it up good, and the egos were getting bigger then their heads..Senior commented how we should have brought the M1A so they could see a "Grown up Gun"-ha ha.

I chose this wicked zombie target today, It looked good on print, but really you couldnt see where you were hitting. So I changed over to the green one- All shots in the Gut! Nothing but 5's baby!
