AggieDave 6 #5 November 1, 2004 Glock 17, 22C Kimber TLE/RL II Pro It was nearly 4 years ago when I shot to qualify, I can't remember what my exact score was, but if I remember I missed a perfect score by only a point or two.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

JohnRich 4 #6 November 1, 2004 QuoteI can't remember what my exact score was, but if I remember I missed a perfect score by only a point or two. You should be ashamed of yourself for dropping a point or two. You owe beer. Attached is my perfect 250 out of 250, shot with a .45 pistol, 1911 model. And that's not exactly an ideal handgun for the timed rapid-fire stages, due to the stout recoil, and extra time it takes to get the sights back on-target. Hence, I tend to rush some, and get a bit sloppier than usual. I keep a .45 pistol in my car and truck. For rare personal carry on my person, I use a Colt Mustang .380, which is just like a miniature .45 pistol. Operation is identical, so there are no procedural adjustments necessary.

Anyway, I will be taking the course in a few weeks and I was curious about what they did when the hole gets to big in the center. John, Did they put tape over yours and you removed it after?

BlindBrick 0 #12 November 2, 2004 QuoteNever bring a knife to a gun fight........... I have a friend who's the knife defense instructor for the Tulsa, OK PD. At typical pistol engagement ranges, the average joe can close and stab you 4-6 times before you can finish the draw. A speed holster typically will lower than number by one or two. But even people with mongoose-like reflexes and a quickdraw holster all got stabbed at least once during his experiments. Of course since most stabbing victims don't realize they've been stabbed until afterwards (ie continue what they were doing before being stabbed), that makes it a somewhat phyric victory for the knife-weilder. -Blind"If you end up in an alligator's jaws, naked, you probably did something to deserve it."

Good thing you're not living in Massachusetts, where silhouette targets are banned. (I guess the fear is that if a person shoots at silhouette targets, he'll develop a madness that causes him to wish to murder human beings. And everyone knows that shooting at circular targets does not enable one to become deadly accurate for anything other than additional circular targets. i.e. someone practicing so that he can accurately shoot humans won't develop any skill at it if all he shoots at are non-human-silhouette targets.) -Jeffrey-Jeffrey "With tha thoughts of a militant mind...

AggieDave 6 #15 November 2, 2004 Well in TX you have to qualify for your CHL on a TX DPS silhouette target BY LAW. Damn liberals, WTF is wrong with a silhouette target? Next thing you know they'll bann nuematic steel ranges since it'll make you shoot robots or something stupid like that.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

That's pretty F'd up that they ban silhouette targets. But your sarcastic exploration of motives isn't really that far off the mark. I watched the History of Firing Ranges on the H channel a while back. I forget the exact numbers, but they pointed out that infantry during WWII had a very small percentage of soldiers who actually fired at the enemy when encountered (way less than 50%) and they trained against hay bails and what not. Whereas during Vietnam after training soldiers with silhouettes, the % was close to 100%. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kennedy 0 #22 November 2, 2004 Nac, some states have no requirements whatsoever. Alabama, for example, is very inexpensive and has no requirements other than you have to have at least one handgun to apply. If you have a clean crimainal background, you'll probably get one. Other states costs hundreds of dollars and you will probably never get the license anyway. New Jersey fees are non-refundable, and the only people getting licenses are celebrities, campaign contributors, and security guards. Of those three, the most likely to be turned down? Yup. Security guards. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
