General Discussion / Re: First Time at Silly Side

Never come across any brass Nazis on that side, and if there are, you can usually easily pick them out. Sweep up your brass, help target reset, and leave your area better than when you found it and you should be G2G

Cool! Good stuff! A nice .22 lr rifle is still on my "to buy" list. Thinking either a Ruger 10/22 T/D (like yours), a Savage bolt action, or an M&P 22.

Can’t go wrong with .22lr in almost any flavor. I’m trying to maintain momentum from this past SSF and bring some co-workers out to the range.

Looking to hit the silhouette range on Sunday, zeroing some recent .22LR acquisitions. Need to convince the missus though :/

General Discussion / Multiple Purchases, Different FFLs, and HRS 134-24/25

Hey 2aHawaii, I'm seeing if my interpretation of the statutes is accurate. Situation - picking up permits to aquire, then planning to shop around to purchase then subsequently register a couple of long guns. Question: my interpretation is that I'm G2G so long as I only travel from FFL to FFL to purchase then to HPD to register all then straight home with no other stops in between. Lemme know if I'm wrong...I usually am

[§134-25] Place to keep pistol or revolver; penalty. (a) Except as provided in sections 134-5 and 134-9, all firearms shall be confined to the possessor's place of business, residence, or sojourn; provided that it shall be lawful to carry unloaded firearms in an enclosed container from the place of purchase to the purchaser's place of business, residence, or sojourn, or between these places upon change of place of business, residence, or sojourn, or between these places and the following:

(1) A place of repair;
(2) A target range;
(3) A licensed dealer's place of business;
(4) An organized, scheduled firearms show or exhibit;
(5) A place of formal hunter or firearm use training or instruction; or
(6) A police station.

2) Not sure why, but new shooters (and some experienced shooters) have a tendency to lean back from the waist when shooting. It's something we deal with regularly with new shooters who take the basic pistol class and it's something that usually is quite easily corrected. That said, it always seems like when you try to get people to "lean forward" when shooting, they inevitably just take a step forward. :facepalm: Then there are some where you are able to get them into a more forward leaning position, to have them gradually revert to the leaning back position. Is that more comfortable or something?

Would it be better to ask them to first "bend the knees" then add further corrections (lean forward, widen stance, etc.)? I brought two groups of people to the SSF, one on each day, and took pictures for all of them. My observation: most brought the weapon to ready with straight knees and fired from that stance. From the static position pre-firing, I think leaning back helps to balance the extra weight of the pistol/rifle in front. "Lean forward" takes them off balance, so the step forward is a common instinct. If their knees were bent, shooters could be better balanced to handle weight shifts and recoil.

Potential surge in 2018? From the limited convos I’ve had, RapBack seems to have no real bite, so acquisitions are in my near future.

Anyone recently had success in acquiring a permit with a Straub-based doctor? Not sure if it's still an issue, and I switched to HMSA only to get a Straub-based PCP *epic fail*.
