Today I was finally able to get my butt up on the hill, at my "range" & punch some holes in the October Match target. I took my camera along & a couple extra guns, with a photo opportunity in mind. I grabbed both SM's, and what I thought was the pair of Sentinels...well, I knew I should have opened the case first, because I got over there & all set up before I noticed that I had brought the Fixed Barrel guns instead.Embarassed Woops.

Too many other things on the brain today, I guess.Screwy Then my camera didn't want to cooperate with the assorted of colors & brightness it had to deal with, so they didn't turn out as well as I hoped for. But here's some of the better ones.Smile

The green in the fields is all gone, now we're left with yellow. Until a couple days ago, there was snow in the hills. Today was 65º & that pretty much dried up the last of it.

Here's the pair of SuperMags (.357 & .375). None of these shots turned out like I was hoping for, but it was still some time well spent.Smile

Haven't cut up that plaid blanket for a PP yet huh....Laugh.  I should have taken some outside pics yesterday--it was nice here also; maybe today.  I have ID tags attached to the handles of all my PP's since so many of them look alike.

In my opinion, the pictures turned out good.  Mind you, I'm not a photographic expert.  However, considering the subject(s) of your pictures, how could you ever go wrong?

I only have one concern about your pictures.  Every time you use those mountains as a back drop, I must admit my mind shifts to our more primitive past when we were cave dwellers and hunters and I want to glass those hills for signs of life...no offense to any non-hunters.

Very cool pictures CF!  The guns and background pair well together!

You could certainly do some long range rifle shooting!

My wife has always wanted to go UT so one day I'm going to have to drop in on CF!

LOL!rofl  Word has it that there are some caves up there, but I haven't had the gumption to go find 'em myself. Now if I was in my teens, I'd know where all of them are & then some!Laugh

Jody, you're right…there's guys up in the hills sighting in rifles with BIG scopes quite often. There was a hubby/wife team up there just yesterday. If & when you and the wife decide to visit Utah sometime, make it the warmer months…we'll go burn some powder!Range Time

Shoot, that blankie's days are numbered…it's gonna be chopped up & lining a PP one day soon.Laugh  I may have to put tags on mine, too. I have been thinking about a permanent label of some sort, but haven't found one that will look good just yet.

I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman "Were is the Self Help Section?" She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.

CF,

Thanks for all the new Cool Pics to aid in Dan Wessonitis.  I do like your area of the country.  Makes for some cool backdrops.  Thanks for sharing those dual gun shots!

Cool Pics Charge, nice lookin toys and back drop. And as far as I am concerned having so many pistol pacs you can't keep them straight is a GOOD problem to have.Worship
