    Any Ideas for plinking targets?

    Keep the "KISS" principal in mind, for the price and clean-up plus low cost. If you mount hang or drive a stake in somewhere, a Stack of "CHEAP" paper plates is your most practical and is about the same size as the KILL ZONE on most commercial targets.

    Do you avoid Gunshows?

    I agree that in most cases that the shows are overpriced, But I go and look and try to the odd and old stuff as well as being able to get parts and stuff my local dealers do not or will not carry, ie. AR-15 lowers the only place that I can get'em is at a show if the guy is'nt sold out!

    Keep your finger outta the trigger guard/ or off the trigger! Till somebody says that it's ok to dry fire! If it's on a rack that is accessible or even if it handed to you always first check to see if it's loaded!
