butt hurt range officer


Recommended Posts

Was at a open to public range saturday. Headed to the 100 yard lanes was asked what we were shooting. Handguns we replied. One worker says handguns? Sweet have fun. The butt hurt one says 100 yards no handgun can ever hit that you guys need to head over to the 25 yard range. We tell him the past 3 years we have came here to shoot our Tc encore 308 handgun and our s&w 460 at 100 wih no problem. No no no I need to speak with someone before we let you shoot 100. The fun workers just let us shoot while the hurt one left. At the end of the day he asked me to see my target down range through the spotting scope and realized I had big ole 460 rounds grouped tighter than ppl shooting their rifles at 50 and 100 and had nothing to say. Some people are just the very jelous butt hurt type whike they changed targets ppl were talking with him and saying how they would love to try a handgun at 100 and further he just disagreed shut them down and kept "reminding" them handguns cant hit 100 yards. Just a rant

What range were you at?

I've seen hand guns at the Oakdale Gun Club 50 and 100 yard ranges a few times over the years and it usually gets the range officers talking but only out of curiosity and interest. But from my experience the guys at Oakdale are a great group and do a nice job at their range.

Some guys get an idea in their head and just can't let it go, I assume the guy you ran into falls firmly into that group.

East bethel beaver brook... yea one range worker was taking pics it was fun he was showing me pics of myself the moment the gun jumps and I never realized it jumped that high. I enjoy everyones curiosity and questions I tell em if you got the money go for it handgun hunting is somewhat increasing its great fun. I like to let them know what kind of handguns are out their for hunting things they never knew exsisted. Promoting handgun hunting I guess you can say.

Btw I think their buisness has declined the past year september always slow or dead when they open to the public but in otober they would have lines and people waiting to shoot all day. Last year a week before firearms opened it was dead this year this past saturday didnt have many people either not sure why plus the original workers arent their anymore. We use to go a couple times before openner i did my gun saftey throuh them

    • got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out
    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
