I want the caliber that made that single big hole in the middle. It must be a cannon ball!

Took my best friend Todd to the range with me this past weekend to put 500rds through the 9mm AR. He fell in love with it and wants to build one for himself now
I think most ranges have gotten with the times. Iād have to assume they still stop the people who are acting like idiots or just out of control shooting the ceilings and stuff.

Yep, there are people like that. I have two ranges close to me. I like the main one best because they let you pick up your brass ( I reload) but they have a 1 sec between rd rule. The other one in the vid, they let you rapid fire long as you are in control of the weapon. But they want you to sweep brass fwd I like going to where I can practice dble tap/rapid ....but I hate giving my brass away for free.
Like you said though, there are idiots. When I go to a range and see rds in the ceiling directly above the lane in ceiling, I think ...WTF??? Some people should not have a gun in their hand .

Figure I'll just post this here and update all my "gun stuff" under this post. Becuase I'm not sure if there's any other firearms enthusiast here or not?
"Range Day" today...was prob best one in a long time. Was joined by 3 of my best gun friends I have. We took a LOT of guns, and we all shot everything each of us brought. Today I shot 22lr, 9mm pistol, 9mm rifle, my .556, my buddies .556, .300blk out, .45acp, 12g semi auto, .308, .40, I think that was it? lol...great day to say the least. Felt like the jungle scene from Predator with all the shooting we had going on.
Some of the toys I took with me today to the range. L to R my 9mm Dagger, my .556 AR I built last summer, and my 9mm PCC AR I built a few months ago.

Dang! I miss those days. We used to go almost every Saturday. One of the state parks here has a range and sells an annual pass for $25. $25 a year!
All of my buddies are still hoarding ammo for fear of not being able to restock. So now I just plink in my back yard.

Yeah, here in rural Indiana we don't have big malls, fancy restaurants, or the luxury of getting murdered every time we go shopping like in the big cities, but we do get to do lots of outdoor-sy things like shooting, hiking, or boating on the cheap.

On the Gulf Coast, we get to have both. Just depends on which way you drive.
