Yesterday I put 500rds of .45 through the Glock 21. 400rds Winchester White Box and 100rds Federal Champion. My fingers actually turned yellow from pushing all the brass into the mags. lol! And my trigger finger is sore!
I was at the range for just over 2 hours, so I got to see a lot of people come and go. I was blown away by how many people couldn't shoot worth a shit. At 7 yards, 90% of the people I watched were having a hard time hitting the paper, let alone hitting the black. I saw rounds go into the roof, the concrete floor and the frame/clips holding the target up. When someone hit the frame, it made everyone's target dance around, kinda irritating to have to wait for your target to quit moving before you can continue shooting. lol!
And here's a few pictures. The first is my best 7 yard target. 60 rounds in this one. I was trying to shoot out the orange part.
These are what a Glock 21sf w/TLR-3 looks like after 500rds straight with no cleaning-
These are cleaned pictures. Total detail strip to get it cleaned.
Iraq at the end of the month, so I've gotta get my range time in as often as possible.
