All this talk about a .95 caliber rifle reminded me I still needed to clear that jam from my Henry from that day at the range.

I'm happy to report I was able to clear the live round. After several cycles of the lever everything seems to be working properly. I won't know for sure until the next range trip.

I looked in the breach with a flashlight and couldn't see anything blocking the round or any mechanism. So, rather than sticking anything back down in there I just used a little more force on the lever and it came right out. The round is toast. If I can get a couple of decent pictures I'll post them.

Oh man. Now I'm going to have to get myself a shotgun so I can play that game too.

I forgot to thank TAM for making my paper look a lot better. Now I wish I had brought it home. The .40 and .45 make similar enough holes that I don't think my wife could have discerned his holes from mine. And this is even more difficult since there weren't too many single holes made by TAM's .45. Mostly just one great big one!

Oh man. I don't know Pawpaw. I'll guess we'll have to do this again sometime soon and I'll have to pay better attention.

I was way down on the left. It was black. Ooohhhhh.

Does Kahr make a little .380? Did anyone have one out there today?

It might have even been someone not with the group. There were so many people out there this morning I don't remember if they had a name tag or not.

Fun day. Thanks Hoi!

I haven't tried clearing that jam from my Henry yet. I'll have a go at it in the morning.

That Mosin had some kick. Now I wish I had tried that .45-70 for comparison.

The .380 I tried had much less kick than I think I was lead to believe from such a little gun. I wish I could remember which one it was. I wouldn't mind having it as a bug for pocket or even ankle carry.

The AR and Fal I tried had a little more kick than I anticipated. I don't know why, but I thought they would be less. They weren't as much as my Henry or that Mosin, but they were more than I thought they would be.


Thanks Everyone!

I haven't had any Mexican food for a week now. I'm not sure if I'm more excited about meeting everyone and shooting or lunch.

Just got back from mowing the yard and had a thought while doing so. If anyone has and can bring a Miami Classic shoulder holster I would love to try one on. And if it were for a Glock 22 or 27 that would be even more fantastical!

I'm still in for both. I'll have my Glocks and the Henry. Not sure how much .40 I'll bring for the Glocks yet, but probably 100 rounds for the Henry. We might not need that much, but I'll have it just in case.

I'll also have my Blackhawk Serpa II and MTAC Minotaur. These are the two holsters I use the most. If I can find my kangaroo holster I'll bring it. The only two other holsters I have is the one that very basic Glock holster and a Fobus Roto holster. The Roto is kind cool, but not very good for concealment because it sticks out so far.

Sounds good.

0900 it is!!!

What time do we show up at the range?

Less than two weeks away and I'm still in for shooting and eating.

Either restaurant is fine, but if I had to choose I would go with Mexican.

I don't think I am experienced enough to offer much in the way of assistance.

As you can see from my signature line, I just have my Glocks and the Henry. If we can shoot it there and anyone would like to try it I would be happy to bring the Henry and some ammo.

Add me to the count for the range and restaurant.
