    Hahaha We'd have killed that dog dead x 10.


    That was a fun time. And Mrs. Orive 8 is an AWESOME range master!

    Nice pistol range you've got there, Tredd. Thanks for setting that up!

    What targets do you guys use to qualify?
    You know, aside from the dog. That was funny though.
    Opinions are like anal apertures. They all stink but mine.

    TQ-19

    The black is one point down, two points down if outside of the black.

    The max distance is 25 yards, or "25-ish" yards on Tredd's range.

    Could I shoot this with a DA revolver and speed loader?

    Yes, no strings of fire are longer than 6 rounds, so you'd be reloading along with everyone else.

    Tredd,

    Thank you for the opportunity to go down to your range and do a little shooting with a good group of people. Over the last 30+ years, I have shot LOTS of qualifications (Army, Police, Competitive, etc.) and its always a fun time for me - I believe that shooting different quals that department, agencies, or organizations have developed allows you as a shooter to see how you are doing.

    I know for some it can be kind of stressful or intimidating, but that is good... you develop as a shooter.

    Again, thank you. DeAnne told me to tell you that she was glad to be able to help out.

    Otto

    Im shooting this with your gun.
    The trigger is different as are the stock sights but I'm running it anyway.

    I'm still on the fence. Went to Ace and they wanted $30 for 50 rounds of some Sig brand ammo I've never used. I waffled.

    I'd prefer to run it with .357. I'm going to call around tomorrow and see if anyone has some.
