I figure any day my eyeballs are 5' 8" above the ground is a good day.

For those of you interested in tannerite, I've posted this one before, but here it is again for those who may have missed it.

In one of the slo-mo cuts you can see the tracer heading toward the target and the shock wave moving out.

I love America!

Happy Independence Day!... even though it happes to be the 5th.

I do believe that the radical and crazy notion that the Founders meant what they said, is gradually soaking through the judicial system.

Next Time....

Bring at least 1 Rifle with scope!  I can't believe 10 guys show up and no one had any guns with a scope. only red dots!!!
Hitting a 1/2 lbs can of Tannerite at 100 yards with open sights is like well...challenging. (3" round jar 3" high)

Your number one Option for Personal Security is a lifelong commitment to avoidance, deterrence, and de-escalation.

Someday someone may kill you with your own gun, but they should have to beat you to death with it because it is empty.

Meh......I couldn't hit anything with my AR. Skipping shotgun hulls with my .45 was fun though. O0

 :shaka: Sorry, no iron sights. Just a red dot that wasn't dialed in. Plus, I didn't say I was good, I just said I had fun.

Was testing a lot of customers guns. Function testing. Not my job to see if they sighted in.

All guns with scopes that were sighted in were 22LR which dont set off tannerite.

Also you do not want this stuff close to you. 1lb shakes the groung already!

But live and learn!  next time.   

Next time....we will lay out 50 cans of tannerite and have a 8 man slide fire shoot off!!!!!!!

I hear ya.  Glass is my friend.  I'm debating whether I should drill 'n tap an ancient Remington Sportmaster for scope mounts. I picked that gun up just 'cause it was like the very first .22 I ever shot back in 1946.  Rifle cost me $65, so I won't be "destroying its collector value," but tapping it for scope mounts will probably cost more than the rifle did in the first place.  Even with my old eyes, the thing shows a good potential for accuracy.

Putting a scope on a defensive handgun is ridiculous, but I put Crimson Trace lasers on both of my main carry guns, a 5-shot snubnose (summer) and my 1911 (winter).  One advantage with the laser sights is that one can shoot from down low, almost like hip shooting, so the flash won't temporarily blind you if (G-d forbid) the need to defend yourself in the dark ever occurs.

I don't know if you guys can use your ranges in the dark, but I can turn off the lights at my indoor range, and the first time I did this I was amazed at the brilliant fireball that comes out of that snubby when you get dark-adapted.!

Hey Terry,

I too debated about doing $200 worth of mods (not scope related) and upgrades to a .22 I paid $48 for. After a year of debate I finally took the plunge and did it and I couldn't be happier! Now I want to put a picatinny rail and better rings and scope on it. Looks like at least another $200 worth on it. I think it is worth it.  ;D
