Good day…

We came, we saw, we shot…

And I sucked… Sigh…

Range time is a perishable skill, as I proved yesterday. Stopped by Casa de Keads for a few hours and we hit the local range with the Colt ‘Ponies’- Three Mustangs of various vintages all in .380.

I had the first FTE since I’ve owned the pistol, and it was a WWB round that ‘stuck’ tight enough that the extractor couldn’t pull it out. We actually had to use a brass rod to knock out of the barrel. That was really the only problem in 50 rounds through the gun. And it functioned flawlessly for having not been cleaned and carried for now almost a month. It will get it’s monthly bath when I get home tomorrow.

We got something to eat and kicked back for a few hours and just chatted. And yes, Keads needs a garage, but doesn’t have anywhere to put it… Too many ‘toys’ and not enough room! 🙂

I’m back on the road playing the dodge em cars on I-95 as you read this… Sigh

  1. Are you overnighting on the run home, and if so, when you get near Fayetteville, holler!
    Otherwise, safe drive. Wife and I will be fighting I-95 tomorrow, at least until we can get onto Hwy 301 headed north

  2. Rev- True! 🙂

    WN- It sucked today, and I actually came up 85, based on traffic reports! It was damn near empty!!!

  3. Keads- THanks for the hosting! 🙂

    Ed- I came up 85 as far as Richmond. Fighting 95 into DC, I was glad I did!!! And yes, I’m thinking about taking the Garand and the 03 out tomorrow, and maybe the SP1.
