Wow! It was staggeringly loud.
My wife and I went to the local shooting range and punched some holes in paper.
Aside from the fact that it was mega loud even with hearing protection, and I had a headache in less than 30 minutes, it was pretty cool.
I felt a little uncomfortable with other shooters so close to me and the fact that we were discharging firearms in an enclosed space but it was fun. And once again my wifes Walther P22 proved just how awesome and accurate it is. I love that gun!
I do sorely miss the multitude of sand pits we had around us back when we lived in Maine. It was so easy to just drive 10 minutes and be in the middle of nowhere and shoot at whatever we wanted for free!!!
Before we left though I did look at a beautiful Bushmaster AR15 in the M4 configuration that I had previously fallen in love with. I had gone there with the intention of buying it but after realizing that I had no place to shoot it I balked. When we lived in Maine we fired hundreds of rounds every week with all of our weapons. Now we don't have that opportunity. I kind of regretted my move to Chalotte NC today. So we left the shop with the M4 still hanging on the wall. They also had a gorgeous FN FAL that I really wanted.
We are already talking of moving to a more gun friendly area in another state, possibly Arizona or Nevada.
