Rick, you should be an ALFA mechanic. You'd have plenty of business.

That includes ACOG, noveske barrel and the new $400 stock.
It can, obviously, be done much cheaper

I am going to a buddies house that has the shooting range next to his house. Poke a few holes in some targets. I have not fired my wheel gun in many years. I dig out some old ammo I have had for a while. It cost me $4.95 per box of 50. It is just was cutter target ammo but it will cost more than that by a bit to replace.

Wow, just realized it's been since 1999 that I did any high velocity hole poking.

Welp the 5 dollar box worked 100%. They were low power was cutters. The real bullets have way more kick.



The was from 100 yards while running at the target over an obstacle course. Ok I can't do green text with my phone but that last bit was just a bit of BS. How about 35 feet while standing still. The 9 mm sure is easier to shoot but a pain to load.

Close enough to get your point across should you ever have to

That reminds me...it's been a while since Lu and I have killed some paper targets. Going to the indoor range would make for a great winter activity.

I think I got a little sunburned today while killing paper. It was mid 70s and full sun. I did not think to put on sun screen.

Everything is cleaned up and put back in place.

My buddy has a wire frame that is rectangle. He hangs a plastic jug and the wind and bullet hits make it dance everywhere. It is hard to hit several times in a row. If you hit it just right near the bottom which is thicker it will do a loop.

Rig up a 4x4 Rumba to rove around with a target.
