First range time in almost........

[Annihilator]

First range day for me in almost a year, didn't get to do any last year due to my surgery, but had a great time today with my brother,


Took these two out, RIA .45 and Gen5 G17

Brother took these out, Polymer 80 and S&W Performance Center Victory



Once I figured where the Glock was hitting, I shot these 2 targets at 25 yards, could have been better.

Sorry to say his Performance Center probably has to go back to factory, 5 different types of ammo and all it did was FTF and jam. But we had a great time, by the way, my brother is going to take the RIA, he loved it.

Excellent. I love range day.

I have 3 Saturdays left before I go under the knife, need to go to the outdoor range and run my M1A

Good for you. Gee, I was just looking at a Performance Center Victory. That's disappointing to hear.

Just got done working on it, the ejector was slightly bent, straighten it back to what it should look like and now gun eats any ammo, the metal is kinda soft, shouldn’t have bent and should be a more stronger metal for the price if these guns

Good catch. Glad you were able to fix it and didn't have to send it back.

Guess these are noted for this issue, typical S&W

i gotta say, the "lower priced" 1911's, like MY RIA, and Tisas, perform every bit as good as all my "higher end" 1911's.

they never disappointed me.

I've had a SW22 victory for almost 4 years now with thousands of rounds through it and I haven't had any issues.

Here's my SW22 with a TacSol barrel and muzzle brake.

Who doesn’t go the the range for a year and then pops one in the bull at 25yds? I see you Mr, T-800.

Glad to see you getting back out there. I had three major surgeries in 2021. I didn't completely stop my range days, but I definitely slowed my pace. During my recovery period range days, my Taurus TX22 saw a lot of action. The minimal recoil from the .22lr rounds gave me the ability to ease back in to shooting. It also allowed me to make adjustments to my grip and my new lack of neck mobility at an affordable price. I handle missing with bulk .22lr ammo much better than I would handle missing with 9mm or .45 acp at today's prices.

I love my RIA 1911 in 9mm! Very fun and adorable to shoot! Accurate too. At least as accurate as I am with a pistol. Witch isn't saying much!

25 yards that’s center mass, good shooting.

Any amount of range time is good range time and time well spent!

to be honest, i like my 1911's to be the customary .45 ACP, that they were "invented" for. however, i must also add, that i have the new Springfield Armory SA-35 (9mm) , which does "look like" a 1911, and i love that gun.

but i am (at times) a traditionalist, and like things the way they were originally, invented, designed and built..

much like the Springfield Armory M1A rifle.....it comes in "composite stocks", but that's not the way it was originally built, which was in real wood. so if i were to ever get such a rifle, it'll be the "traditional" wooden stock.

Is it ironic to have a muzzle break on a .22?

Yea, but that’s how it came from S&W, Performance Center gun, we eventually took it off and put on the blank that was included, the break in my opinion just made the pistol louder

25 yards that’s center mass, good shooting.

Thanks goose, took time to find out where the Glock was hitting before I even tried to shoot at that distance, I had Remington 9mm 115gr, it didn’t like that, so I tried the Browning ammo same type, and it liked it, so that’s what I shot those targets with, that Glock will shoot. Started out at 7 yards, then at 15 yards, that’s when I switched ammo, then I just gave it a try at 25 yards just for giggles, that Browning ammo is real good, first time I tried it.
