After I got my Sig Mosquito, from Beech Grove Firearms, I took it out to the 20 acres owned by my family to shoot it. So I'm out in the woods with my cousin and his wife and we're shooting this new gun into cans and coins on the side of a hill in the woods. We're out there about a half hour and here comes my dad, uncle and a uniformed police officer walking out to where we were shooting at. I was told the police were called because of the shooting. I said "You're kidding me." The LEO told me that a lady had called because she was working in her garden and wanted to make sure she was not going to get shot.
The LEO told me that a few months back, a man was killed on his front porch in the same area by a stray bullet and he was just coming out there to see if I was being safe. He said that I was being safe and then started asking what kind of gun I had. I told him it was a Sig Mosquito in .22lr. He looked really interested so I put in a loaded magazine and handed him the pistol and told him to try it out. He said "You don't mind?" I told him not at all. So he fired a few shots and decides that he likes this little gun, even though it was jamming because of the 8 year old Thunderbolts I was firing in it and it was not broken in yet.
I just thought the funniest part of this was that the woman that called the police could still hear the shooting. Little did she know, some of the shooting was being done by the LEO that came out to make sure I was being safe.
My family has been shooting on that property since they bought it in 1965 and this was the first time the police were ever called out there because guns were being fired. I'm not upset that they were called, but I am upset that people were shooting so irresponsibly that some poor guy was killed while sitting on his front porch.
