Bay Area Gun Whackos - Labor Day Shoot

Sat, Sun, or Mon?
I'm shooting milsurp 30.06 now (steel jacket) so Livermore is out.  I'm thinking Castro Valley, but if anybody wants to nominate their home range (Makarov9?), any place with pistol and rifle lines is cool.  Let's do it.

Los Altos shooting range - in the Los Gatos hills. Nice place.



Buuuuut......The O-C is paintballing Saturday up at Bear Creek, so if you feel like something more challenging then sitting on your bellybutton shooting at something which doesn't retaliate - (http://www.bearcreekpaintball.com)  Sat, 0830-1500.

I'll be at the Los Altos range on Sat around 10:30. I'll bring a bunch of jugs and cans for the 40 yrd tin can range. Always fun making jugs dance with high-power weapons.

Funked may now be a communist, but he has a nice pair of M1 Garands. We had a good day at the range today. He brought his pops and two friends, all real nice guys. We shot for around 6 hours. Once they got the Garands sighted-in, we headed to the 40 yrd tin can range and blew the crap out of bottles and cans. We finished off with the pistol range. Damn I need lots of practice with my pistols. I'm a piss-poor shot. Much better with rifles. Anyway, we need to continue these Bay Area Gun Nut meetings in a more regular interval.

That was fun, dude!  Nice range up there.  Got the Garands into action, got the red dot on the SKS zeroed, and further demonstrated that I can't shoot any pistol with recoil.  :)
Old man really got a kick out of the .17 and the SU-16 too.  Thx for sharing!
