Kokohead: Pistol range
« on: October 21, 2011, 08:45:01 AM »
I need to go and sight in my new irons on my pistol.

I don't remember if the pistol side had extra frames and I need to just bring targets.  What say ye all?

Bring your own frames.

Second that. If you want to be entrepreneurial, make two, and sell one for a profit.

If you just take the measurements, you can pretty much build one in the store at lowes or home depot.  I just buy the lumber, have them cut it in store, and then drill holes.. all pow! The cost is cheap, about 4-5 dollars a stand.

A little of topic, but i was surprised to see someone selling frames at the gun show.  I was like wow.  Understandable though, not everyone has access to what i would consider "normal" tools.  (chop sw, sawzall, etc)

I built one before.  I don't remember where I put it.   :wacko:

Buy your lumber at Home Depot. They'll cut it for you for free. The only tool you really need is a drill.

No, no, no!  I wish people would stop saying that Home Depot will cut your lumber for you.  You need to tell your wife that in order to build a frame, you need to buy a cordless drill, preferably from a quality manufacturer like Milwaukee or DeWalt, and a sliding compound miter saw, again from a good manufacturer.  Then you'll need a drill press, a good-size work bench, and various hand tools and drill bits.   :geekdanc: 

Or, at least that's how it works for me!   >:D

^^^I had my guys build my good rifle frame.  Then I shot one leg up with my H&K USC.  I can thank the idiots at Kokohead who don't know how to line up their targets properly for shooting out my target at 100 yds when they have improperly set up their frame at 50 yds.

Haha, it sounds like someone is having fun with you.

I like shooting my friends tatgets on occasion just to mess with them.

^^^I don't know them and they aren't having fun with me.

Next time you go to the range look at how people set up their targets.  Rarely do they set them up in the correct lanes.  If they set up two targets, one at 50 yds and one at 100 yds, they do not set them up in the same lane.  They do not offset into the open lane to shoot offhand/kneeling/prone, they continue to shoot from the bench.  This means that they end up shooting the target to the sides of them.  I've even seen some guys so bad that they are shooting targets two benches over (given those guys didn't set up in the correct lanes too, but sometimes you don't have a choice because the people there first [to the sides] didn't set up and are forcing you over).

Some of us have REALLY poor eyesight.  Okay, not that bad to the point where I start shooting other peoples' targets.  What I did was line it up based on the guys NEXT to me.  Heh...if my targets are two lane over from his... then at least I am consistent!

Does anyone know how many yards/meter is the khsc pistol range set up for?

Web site is sorely in need of updating.  Looks like a 1990s BBS / Website LOL

Any help from member would be greatly appreciated.        :shaka:

I get much quicker response to questions from forum members than waiting for city and county range personnel response from my email request.. 

Yes i said it.... Lack of customer service haha... :wtf:              :grrr:
