Today I went with Brayden and my coworker Laura to Silverdale gun club and it was a lot of fun but before I get to the shooting, lol I want to talk about picking up Bray. So I get to his house, call and there was no answer so I am about to knock and the front door opens… I’m greeted by Ammo but lol he didn’t like that a stranger opened the door! Haha I immediately closed the patio door though that wouldn’t stop him if he wanted to come at me lol. The commotion woke Brayden up, he set his alarm wrong so the guy was still asleep.
He told me that he tripped over ammo yesterday, jamming his pinky toe on his bed frame breaking the digit… It looked pretty bad and I could tell he was in pain but the dude insisted to come, lol he’s definitely tougher than me. While I was waiting for Brayden I took a few pictures of Ammo.
In the last picture I took it with my size 10 boot so you can get an idea at scale, yeah he’s a big one and just over a year old too!!!
Anyway after picking up Brayden we went to Laura’s place and she drove, it was a much more comfortable ride in her Xtera than the Mini lol. I’m definitely glad we took her car, the area was covered with snow and the roads to Silverdale are quite rough, I could see the Mini getting stuck… Anyway when we get to the club we sign in and I got to look at all the toys in at the gun store… I was SUPER tempted to buy something but in the end I was good and kept my credit card in my pocket haha.
We went directly to the action range and had fun there for hours… Laura brought her Remington 870, I brought Temir’s Ruger 10/22 and Brayden brought his Glock 34 and AR-15. Hehe it was funny to watch Laura shoot her 870 and she was not ready for the recoil of a 12 gauge magnum slug. 😉 She quite enjoyed shooting the Ruger 10/22 and seemed afraid of the Glock and AR-15… Oh well she’s a girl right ;), after a few more times I’m sure she’ll have no problems shooting those guns.
Haha it was nice to shoot with someone with less experience than me. 😉 In the last picture I was shooting Brayden’s new AR-15 and boy is it a lot of fun to shoot… I absolutely love it and talked Maggie into letting me get one too so now I’m in the market for one. Not sure how much 5.56 we went through but we shot 200 rounds of .22LR and at least a couple hundred rounds of 9mm… Luckily I wasn’t a total leach and split 1000 rounds of 9mm with Brayden and got him to pick me up two bricks (500 rds each brick) of .22LR.
We left the range at around 1PM, had a quick lunch at McDs and then went home… I’m glad we left when we did, that way I could still spend time with Brandon and we went for a walk to the local Timmies so I could get him an Frozen Lemonade which is one of his favorite drinks.
LOL Maggie complained later that it was too cold out for a drink like that but I disagree and he loved it. Man what a great weekend, it was definitely very fun and I enjoyed it very much. 🙂
