Gun Range

Like I mentioned in my previous post, it’s much easier for me to blog when I have pictures to share. Well…today must be my lucky day because I have pictures to share! This past weekend was my very first time at an outdoor gun range and short of becoming a certified NRA member and running out and buying myself a pistol…I have to say, I had a really good time. And, yes people, I did change my profile picture.

Now don’t get me wrong, I know that guns are not a toy and not to be taken lightly…but there is something really cool and badass about being able to go out and shoot something. And considering it was my first time at the range, I wasn’t expecting to like it as much as I did…but it actually was really awesome. It took awhile for it to grow on me, but after a few warm-up rounds at the pistol lanes, we headed to the 100 yard rifle lanes…and that’s when the fun really started. You can’t help but fall in love with those big badass guns.

But yes, to tell you the truth, I wasn’t much of a fan of the pistols and semi-automatics…but the AR series of guns are a totally different story. I have to say that those things are very cool and super fun to shoot. After the targets were set up, I got ready to shoot but wasn’t really expecting to be able to hit anything. I mean, I could barely keep my bullets anywhere near the targets at the pistol lanes, so I expected to suck super bad at the rifle lanes. However, I guess if you have a good scope on your gun and actually take the time to line up your shot properly, you can have a ton of fun and actually hit something. And as you can tell from my target sheet, I was actually able to make some descent shots. And I did have a ton of fun.

Anyway, check out the pictures from the gun range and know that I’m seriously thinking of getting myself a really badass gun. :)
