Razz,


You may be an old fashion democrat. But, you are not a Modern Liberal. Gun Control is the number one thing on their agenda.

Just got a news Flash! The Lawsuit was thrown out of Court!

Yeah.

Keith

Default Keith...

Even as an Expert with an MI-Rifle out to 500 yards for 3 years, and once firing: "A Possible"(250 out of 250), don't believe I could've kept; "A 2 inch group at 300 yards" with an open and/or peep sight. However, and even though never trying such with a scope and a well zeroed 30.06 weapon,...I must believe that a 2 inch grouping at 300 yards is really no-big-deal? Regardless, I must also believe that even with a scope,...total surprise at the round going-off and/or not flinching makes for the best: "Gun Control" of all. Hey Keith,...maybe that's how the expression: "Stay Loose" first originated? Seems about right to me.

Jerry D, I'm surprised at you, a Zoomie, not knowing who it was?
It was one of your guys, Joe Foss who got hassled by the airport security. Sadly, Joe has passed on since that happened.

Wink You are right on.

Neil,

I usually sight in my 30-06 1903A3 at 200 yds. Using a bench rest and sand bags a 2'' grouping is pretty good shooting. I'm a good shooter but I don't even come close to the real pros.

A peep sight at 300 yds and a 2'' group would be a miracle. With a scope and a .308 or 30-06 or another good round and good ammunnition would be a cinch for any competition shooter.

Keith

Jerry D

I never heard about that one? The MOH hangs on a ribbon around the neck, held there by a fastening device!

Lightbulb Thanks for the Info Murph

Thanks Murph, I had forgotten his name but, the incident at the airport stayed in my memory as a ridiculous thing to happen to a retired MOH service member.
