A Nice Attorney Group Range Trip

Since work is slow, I and 3 other attorneys that do firearms law decided to meetup at the range and discuss firearms law and shoot in a socially distant approved manner. Ok, we really showed up to shoot together, but some law was indeed discussed.

Socially distanced outdoor recreational activities, doncha know.

Nice toys were displayed and passed around and tried by all.

I got to shoot J's CZ Scorpion Evo - a pistol he had papered and turned into an SBR - complete with a very nice red dot on it and a silencer attached. The Evo could knock down plates rapidly and effortlessly. That thing is amazingly nice to shoot.

I also got to try Dean's homemade 1911s again, including one he brought along with a silencer, which were working much better since he bent the extractors a tad. No more did they jam on initial loading.

T brought a FN 5.7 pistol along - that thing is effortless to shoot, with no recoil to speak of at all. But, it was plagued with some major feeding problems - jamming after each and every shot, making it necessary to eject the next round, fire 1, eject 1 and so on. Most likely a bad magazine but still a neat firearm for all that. He also shot an SW M&P 9mm with excellent results.

Everyone liked trying my Masada pistol and its SRO.

J had brought a P80 Glock 19 with an SRO on it that I zeroed for him as it was way off. No idea how the SRO got that far off zero but it was impressively not zeroed - as in missing not just the 81/2x11 target but the entire cardboard silhouette target as well. I managed to get it on paper and on target after some fiddling to find out where it was actually hitting - turns out about half a mile high and left by a quarter mile or so (not quite that much but it sure felt that way).

Thence onto the rifle range. I shot my Tavor and let everyone else try it. D brought his old-school Colt AR-15 that is configured as an M16A1 complete with triangular hand-grips, light barrel, etc, which was fun to shoot.

Just for fun I shot the Masada at 100 yards. Once I got the hang of it, I was able to ring the steel targets hanging on the 100 yard line pretty regularly. The SRO makes it pretty easy. Not particularly practical, but fun. That's another 250 rounds through the Masada.

A good time was had by all and we cleaned up and headed off our socially distant separate ways.
