They're not takin' the ones I have :x :o :shock: :D
haha same here =P. They can have my ammo, one round at a time :twisted: Scorpio11 are you familiar with the appleseed shoots? The two day training that I went to cost $75 bucks and I got top notch training. I was ok going in but by the middle of the second day I was shooting 180's (sharpshooter) on Fred's "quick and dirty" army qualification test. I was consistently hitting targets at 300 yard equivalents (the targets are actually 25 yards away but they are scaled such that they represent a standard 6ft tall man at different distances-100yd,200yd,300yd,and 400yd). I plan on hitting the range maybe tomorrow to keep practicing. I'd like to hit 1000yards eventually with my garand :twisted: . I highly recommend the shoots. If you have plenty of ammo then $75 is the next best investment unless you're already well skilled at distance. Even then you may pick up other skills from the instructors AND you meet like minded people. Just be aware that there is a distinct possibility that some of the participants are FEDS as the fags spy on us.

That's a good one! :x :) :P :D :lol:
Do you have a website for the training you are talking about. Sounds like a great 'investment'
Thanks for the tip.

I haven't done the Appleseed Shoots but I agree that during these times it is a good investment. My shooting training was for mostly Deer, Duck, Pheasant and Quail in my teenage years.
I never was much into Guns until the Bush Administration convinced me that I had better get armed again. Now I guess I am a full blown Gun Nut now.
Looking at longer ranges myself -- I must say that the Garand is a great choice for a rifle.
As for taking my ammo, they can take my .308 at 700 yards, my 7.62x39 at 300 yards and my .223 at 200 yards or less. :)
1 bullet at a time of course.
I may pick up a good M-Nagant or Swiss rifle which are less than a $300 bucks and have good ranges. Even though you never want to use it, having a good reliable weapon is an insurance policy.
