What Do You Do With Your Guns?

[L.E. Keeney]

I carry some of them, plink with some of them, lovingly caress others and thin the deer herd with one or two of my smokepoles.

PLINK!!!!
of course I do want to go hunting but have not yet had the opportunity. I'm looking into what's available around here, but not many people interested in hunting. also started collecting, have my grandfather's old 12 guage winchester and a couple of C&R guns.

Plinker, collector, gawker, drooler.

I'm a shooter, so I shoot them, some do not get shot as much as others, but sometimes I look in the safe, and say " Hi old girl, lets go on a date " I shot competition for a long time, and many different disciplines, Bullseye, U S Service rifle, NRA action shooting, steel plates, USPSA, Hunters pistol silhouette, precision air pistol, PPC, local tactical pistol, and shotgun, I've done 3 gun, and love it. Of course self defense is where it all started, so I have many carry pistols, from .22 mini revolvers, to .32 small auto's to small .45's both pistol and revolver. 24/7 is a 9mm revolver. I do like to plink, but like to stretch things when I do, it does not matter what I'm shooting, lets see what it will do, like having a 76 Pinto, I got it, lets see how it handles and how fast she will go, or a Corvette, same thing, lets stretch the legs and see what happens. That is a lot of fun and informative, like an SKS at 500 meters, not a target gun, but more usable than you might think, and in the reverse, don't DIS one being used against you thinking your out of range.

Of course right now. the .22rf is King.

Guns!

What guns?!

Ever since that tragic boating accident, all my guns are at the bottom of the Mississippi.   

Nah... seriously, though, I do shoot USPSA and steel and once every other blue moon IDPA.

I think my first person vids are linked below in my signature line.

I think.

I wear a hat with a camera attached to its bill.

I am in Illinois, so CCW'ing is out.   

Just think how many more guns could be sold if Illinois and Wisconsin got on board???

I like to shoot.  It doesn't matter to much what kind of shooting it is, I just like to shoot.  Never seem to have the time for it much for a few years now.   Have never shot any organized competions, but have shot some informal semi organized shoots.    Got a basic Daisy when I was about 8 or 10 when we visited my Grandfolks on the farm in Kansas.  Went through a pack of 2000 BBs in 2 days.  Shot a handgun, a .38 revolver, the first time when I was five, and Grandpa's .22 rifle a few years later.   Never shot a shotgun until I was 18.  Used to shoot a rifle fairly well with open sights when younger.  I think my eyes switched somewhere along the line.  I'm right handed and left eye dominate and can shoot a handgun fairly well shooting right handed, left eye.  I'm either hot or cold with a shotgun.  Always use to do OK.  Went duck hunting with some friends and never had as many shots ever as I did that day.  Ran out of shells and got more and never hit a thing that day.  Went out a couple weeks later for clay pigeons and couldn't hit a thing.  A couple months later shooting clay pigions with the same friends and I couldn't miss. It's been hot or cold like that ever since with a shotgun.  I do go deer hunting every fall and shoot a scoped rifle well enough.

I shoot a few of my guns when I can, collect a few. Store a few and trade or sell a few now and then, but still have my first handgun, shotgun, and rifle, Gradpa's .22.  I enjoy reading and studying firearms and their history just as much and have a small collection of gun and shooting books.

That happened to you to? Mine are in the Rio Grande. I am in trouble if illegal aliens find them. They may be nice enough to return them to my house. I know they wouldn't take them to Mexico for the drug cartels to use. I don't want to be 91%.

Wait, now I remember. They didn't go down in the Rio... Mine are all in the Gulf of Mexico about 60 miles off shore. Don't know what I was thinking taking them with me way out there but I was worried about pirates.

I'm sorry about forgetting SASS on the poll 

Still looking to give that a try, but so many interests, so many toys and soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo little time
