target practice yesterday

[horsepwr]

I got up at 2:30, and loaded up the truck to go have a nice day at the camp. And I need the plinking practice. It would've been great if it was at least 15 degrees cooler, and maybe the slightest breeze. But damn! When you get ab0out 45min inland...holy shit!..that was hot! I was drenched in sweat by about 9am. I couldn't even shoot worth a shit because it was just plain miserable. At least I got to work out with my pea-shooter. (the only thing I feel like carrying in the heat of the summer). Gotta practice with those pocket pistols. Or, I know I do. I did okay after not shooting for a good month or so. I shot about 150rds, and had to get out of that heat.
Still on point with the full size pistol. That's just a whole different ball of wax all-together though.

One thing I realized when cleaning them last night. I'm going to have to field-strip-clean my daily carry piece ever so often. Even if it hasn't been fired. I get so hot, and sweat so bad. My Keltec,(DCC piece), needs to be cleaned and lubed ever-so-often. I figure, about once a month...Keltecs, like most, are more dependable wet than dry.

Carrying daily has learnt me a few things.

I went shooting today too, and talk about hot, try Vegas in the middle of the desert at 105%, probably 110% where I was. But at least its not humid like where you are.

Re: target practice yesterday

I need to get out and run my target course. I've set up a course to practice suburban/wooded shooting skills. I have two trails one to walk/run, the other from the back of a pick up truck. It a lot of fun.
