    Target Sent

    I sent in my first Postal Match Target today. As you know I only fired 5 rounds instead of the required 10 rounds. I fixed this by pocking holes in the target where I am sure I would have hit, had I fired. I was sure no one would mind.






    Alright, I didn't really. Next month, one target, 10 holes. At least that is the plan.

    I tried to push the envelope, but found that it was stationery.

    Got your 5 shot target in Friday. I seem to of suffered a spell of I can't count to 10 on my pistol target. I've looked at it 4 times and I can only make 9 shots. So looks like May is a drop score for me on Pistol.

    You just did that to make me feel better.

    Sounds like he was talking about my May pistol target.

    I have shot my 2 rifle targets for June but not sent them in yet because I'm still looking for a suitable pistol.

    I also had to take my brothers M1 to the gunsmith to work on the sights. First 2 shots go where they are supposed to go then they start walking down the paper because the sights slip down to zero. Tried tightening them up but no joy, al I did was move my sights to the left and it still slipped down to zero. I may have two targets get laughed at. It would be easier to use my own M1 but with the .308 insert in it I'm not sure if it qualifies for C&R...heavy sigh. I wish all my problems were this small.

    Oh well, there is still the K-31.

    Actually no, I didn't. My goof is probably because I was short on time and hurrying, that and I can't count to 10 I guess.

    With your permission I would like to use the same reasoning. I could say something like Dirty Harry. "Did I shoot 5 times or did I shoot 10? In all the confusion I lost count. DO YOU FEEL LUCKY PUNK? (while pointing at the target of course.)
