Click 'L' to see the detail of the muzzle flash. You can see the bullet leave a line as it streaks from the barrel. I think it was catching a rim light from the sun and left a streak.
the result of the gunnery practice. different calibres and types of ammo. this is the thickest armour on this vehicle; especially the rear was completely shot to bits.
On New Year's Eve we went down to the family hunting cabin to do some target practice with friends. Mr Chiots wants to do this every month so he's ready for deer season this year. He's hoping to have 3 deer in the freezer after 2010 hunting season.
I took my oldest child, and only daughter, to the shooting range today. She did well, and learned quickly. I think the time in our back yard, with the BB gun has really helped ease her into it. The ideas of breathing slowly, sight picture, and some of the basics of firearm safety had already been learned. So, she was ready to do well today.
On our way to the El Badi Palace, we walked by another large mosque and this soccer ball ravaged entrance. One of the locals informed us that this was the ladies entrance to the mosque.
I rather doubt the men would allow the boys to use THEIR door for target practice.
I went to a local indoor range for target shooting this afternoon. It was my second time with a pistol-- last time, I shot the Makarov (9mm) and this time, we rented a .22 semiautomatic pistol for me. The first one I tried was a Ruger Mark 2, and it felt really light, and I had trouble shooting, as the action kept misfeeding. Ergo, I didn't like as much. The Browning, however, was great. It was heavier, felt better, etc. And other than having a difficult time releasing the magazine, it was easy and fun to shoot. This is the target I used to fire a box of shells at.
The guy at the range is trying to talk me in to buying one. I would want an *excellent* gun safe if I did.
