For the last couple of years, each trip to the range includes my youngest son, along with:
A 'Chipmunk' that I bought for him (that resides in the gunsafe!)
A Ruger 10/22
My Remington 541-T Sporter
S&W mdl 41 w/ 5-1/2" barrel
Colt Gold Cup NM
Glock G-21
K98k Mauser
Enough ammo to last the session, whether it's two hours, or all day.
Lots of Gatorade for the kid, and coffee (and Gatorade) for the old man.
There's always a lunch packed and good conversation comes along, too.
When we get to the range, it's usually around 7:00 a.m., or so, and the regular High Power Shooters are there, practicing and checking out their equipment.
Sometimes, it's just my son and me. These are the best times.
Watching him 'take out the enemy soldiers' (empty 12 ga. shotshells) strategically placed at 25 to 50 yds with one of the .22s is a real kick in the pants!
That's my usual trip to the range.
I'm glad the weather's getting warmer. I truly enjoy my range time with my kids.
My oldest daughter (she's 25) surprised me when she said that she wants to start joining us, last year.
Now, I just have to get their siblings to get the urge!!
Thanks for reading.
