The CZickness XXXII Patiently waiting for the SGE

[Areoflyer09]

I’m late on this one!

Had a great day shooting with some great people and drove home with the windows down - such a pretty day.

It was a great day with SS, MM, 88 and the Mrs! Lots of rounds down range.

Just for WebSnyper, we out 898 rounds down range today with the 44. I’d call mine a very reliable rimfire, probably my most reliable.
8 fail to fire - all fired on a second attempt, I blame rimfire
6 fail to eject
3 fail to feed

It really was a great day. Probably one of the best I’ve had in recent months. There is just something about spending the day with people that you genuinely like, doing something that you love to do that is hard to beat.

I only took the old compact CZ along with the Coyote Gun, a couple ARs and a 1942 vintage Finnish capture Mosin Nagant. The old Mosin is always fun because it’s been there and done stuff. The CZs are plain old fun to shoot.

I did get a chance to run Turbo’s G44 and can see one of those coming into the collection one day this year. There’s a fun factor that is bigger than you would imagine with that.

I’m hoping that we can do this again as summer approaches.

MM’s recently acquired milsurp (I forgot what it is) makes a very nice fireball!

Beautiful day out there! A buddy was supposed to come by to tryout his new 45-70 lever gun. He had family duties, and couldn’t make it. Son showed with his 30-30 and we shot lever guns all afternoon.

I’ve looked into having the bores relined on the old ones, and today settled it. The 1873 will be relined. Couldn’t hit a full size USPSA silhouette at 100 yards from a rest, with a 24” barrel. The 1892 hits it ok, but there were a few that hit sideways. Barrels are toast. The 1894 in 32WS is a sledgehammer! It really moves a 12” plate at 100 yards. The iron sights are a challenge for me, but that bullet hits the plate like a truck.

Its official.

You are hooked.

It's the M44 Mosin ..... made in 1952 (my birth year) at the Radom factory in Poland.

Yes, yes, yes ..... to all of the previous comments by the other attendees. It was truly a fabulous day, and such fun to spend it with very amicable gangsters.
We had a blast !

88 and I were trading CZ's, and making the steel squeal ..... him more than me, but that's OK .... he's younger !

Also got to try Turbo's super-cool 7.62 AR ..... the first time I've fired that cartridge in the AR platform. It has a very smooth recoil impulse, and everything on the rifle spoke of quality. I liked it.

And finished the day with hugs from two very pretty girls ..... how can you beat that ? (rhetorical question, obviously !)

Sounds like a pretty darned good day all around.

It was a great day! Great people, perfect weather, and lots of rounds down range

I really like hearing about KJ's new lever gun passion ....... but one question remains.
Does he have the proper western attire ??? Hmmmm .... do you KJ ?

With all the cool old hardware, you'd better have an authentic cowboy hat ..... maybe one that a horse drank out of, and a mountain lion chewed on the brim ..... far out on the lonesome prairie !

And dang, mouse .... that 1911 didn't take long to sell ..... which really doesn't surprise me, as it's a real looker
Some lucky shooter scooped in up !

Had 2 offers in an hour. One was silly the other full asking. Bye bye.

That’s like trading 1 for 3....pieces. Winning!
