Very nice, sir! Was that a Glock 17 or perhaps a 19?

It is a Glock 22 -- my brother-in-law's service weapon.

Nope makes your chest look small. LOL The other weekend me and 4 of the other fire department members went to a charity Trap shoot benefiting a charity in our 1asst chiefs father name. I have never done trap shooting and with a loaner gun hit 44 of 100. I was pretty impressed even though I am a very good shot with a rifle at stationary targets.

I'd just throw out a rescue ring to m4. If he missed it I'm sure he would be able to float on his cooler once he let the beer out.

The thing about trap/skeet/sporting clays is your swing and follow through. It's quite different than shooting stationary targets. Aim just in front of the clay and continue your swing after you pull the trigger. This will create a large swath of shot for the clay. Keep your head down, and use your finger on the forfend of the gun to point where you want to shoot. It makes the natural connection between eye and hand.

Luna knows what he says. Most of my misses I stopped moving the gun. That and I learned that with the gun I had I needed to cover up the clay instead of centering it in the sites. The forefinger thing I will have to look at. I wrapped all my fingers of the front hand around the stock.

I had a shooting coach and he made me tape a shirt button on the front stock. Put my finger on the button and point where I want to shoot!

We had people helping us but nobody mentioned that. Hoping that we can get together and shoot without many people around. There where 69 people shooting that day.
