I'll be there as well in a hour or so. So were you the one w/ the camo AR in 308 or the dude w/ the AK pistol? Sorry I was being anti social because I had a schedule to keep.
I was the dude w/ bed head, red shirt, camo shorts & black AR. Well I made it back...no muzzle sweeps...nice RO...well just a little grief for shooting my AR only at 25yrds on the 100 yrd range. Of the 17 mags tested; 6 vintage GI mags okay
1 PMag okay
3 H&K mags okay
3 20rounders failed to lock the bolt back 
1 PMag failed to lock the bolt back
3H&K mags failed to lock the bolt back
And the ones that failed to lock the bolt back also had some FTF issues too.
I shot a mixed bag of 55 OT Remington, 55grSP GA Arms, 55 FMJ Federal and the last 20 rounds of my Silver Bear. The Federal was the Wally World 100rd boxes & it functioned fine in all the mags that worked. Also the same mag problems were present w/ this ammo too. 
My 27 yrd zero was low 2" & right 3" w/ irons and my PDP4 Tasco was 2" low but centered up at first & I did not get a chance to clean that up-schedule thingy. 
Now on to Mr Mom duties so the REAL Mom has a day off & good food waiting. 7mm |

Quoted: so why did u use the 100 yard line just to shoot 25 yards?  was the 25-50 line used up? how is CE on the weekends? I've never gone on a weekend  Quoted: ...well just a little grief for shooting my AR only at 25yrds on the 100 yrd range. It depends, today was not very crowded and the people who were there knew somewhat what they were doing. I wasn't muzzle swept nor do I really see any safety violations, I wish I could say that were the case every time. |

So who was the dude w/ the AK pistol?
Since nobody stepped up...I'll speak up. best range nazi voice
Dude w/ the AK pistol, if your gonna shoot from the hip rapid fire PLEASE make sure all your rounds go in to the berm , from in front of the RED LINE
also don't stand up and shoot your cool AK pistol into your 25 yard target while I watch your rounds skip off the ground and hit the berm about 5' up the berm, from in front of the RED LINE
the shooting bench area was clean when you got there please clean it before you leave.

Other than that it was a good day. 
To the dude w/ the AR10...it was sure a sexy shooter w/ the Trijicon, grippod & Magpul goodness in the rattle can camo. Yeah I was jealous. To the other AR shooter at the far end...A BIG THANKS FOR YOUR BRASS!!!!
