Survival Fun With Gun(s)

We traveled to Nevada to visit a facebook friend, bushcrafter, hiker, camper… Maciek.
I’ve always known that firearms can be important survival tools but, like many others, I never really had the chance to practice shooting, gun safety and maintenance as much as I should.

spent bullets We went to the local range to have a bit of productive fun with a Remington 870 12 gauge shotgun, Taurus Judge Public Defender .45 LC/.410, .45 ACP XD-S Springfield, a little .38 special revolver and some 9mm pistols. We also shot a .22 LR semi auto rifle and a .223 AR-15 but by that time the wind was so bad, it was impossible to film. It literally sanded our faces and filled our eyes and noses with mud.

Good times.
