Not my gun or my shooting, but exemplary nonetheless, and indicative of what a good shot with a handgun can do!
Further, you don't have to be Annie Oakley to get results like that. With a steady hand, and some work, it doesn't take long to do that. Nice gun.
Me too. Ever read the account of his injuries as a lad ? He was badly burned in a fire and almost lost the use of a hand. How his dad helped him is some scary stuff, and his dad was not a physician !!!
Oh, I know!!! I've read most of his books, including his autobiography in which he talked about that experience. Makes me cringe just to think about it!
I open carry while biking. Over the last couple years, a few bikers have been abducted and killed; no reason to take the chance.
I only open carry while hunting, or on my property in west Virginia. I had a CCW in Ohio for 8 years before moving to NC. I never carried openly in Ohio, even though it was legal. It is also legal here in NC, but at the same time you can be arrested for inciting a panic if someone calls the police because you are carrying openly in public. It doesn't make any sense. For a conservative republican southern state, NC has some really screwed up gun laws. You also have to apply for a pistol purchase permit, in order to purchase one.
I'm sorry, but this is just a blatantly false claim. The sight on a S&W 28 is too large for any kind of accuracy at that distance. You could hit a silhouette target, but you are not hitting a quarter or a 50 cent piece at that distance, except by accident.
That's the strangest law I ever heard of. Inciting a panic for doing something legal? Sounds like a back door way of making OC illegal.
Not every time. But every time I put the first three in a quarter size group. and sometimes the last 2 were inside a 50 cent pice, and sometimes they weren't. Everytime with my Model 28.
There has been some hiker murders and rapes too. Apparently bad guys are discovering that remote trails are a good hunting ground for unprepared victims and no police presence.
It's retarded. I was also annoyed when I moved to NC last year that I had to go through the hole process of obtaining a CCW all over again. NC recognizes an Ohio CCW permit, but only for Ohio residents. So, as soon as I became a resident of NC, it no longer applied and I had to sit through 12 hour class, go the range to demonstrate proficiency, and then wait 60 days for an appointment with the sheriffs office for fingerprints, and then another 3 months for them to mail me my CCW. Really messed up for a southern republican run state.
Out here, trails are often defunct rail lines bordered by cornfields. Pretty good cover for bad guys.
I would probably only open carry in town or around the neighborhoods in our swampland if it was in a WROL situation. And I can open or concealed carry as I wish. Being a fairly well know and recognized professional guy, I don't want to attract undue attention wearing an obvious gun around. I have only seen one big old dude who wasn't obviously a cop carry his little .38 on his hip in Wal-Mart over the last 20 years.
