You won't have an issue with it. My Mom shoots just as many rounds as I and doesn't have trouble. Just shooting a shotgun at paper is boring.

This.

In HS we used to save our beer bottles from a Friday night and use them as skeet the next day. Fun as hell.

I think I'm going to start shooting skeet with a full choke.

Not because I'm that good (have yet to break 23) but just because it's really satisfying when the bird completely fricking vanishes.

It's called 'dusting' a dove or duck.

I worked with a guy in VA who had an FFL.
He only charged me 10 dollars over wholesale. I was making semi OT cash(62k). Within a year, I had about 15 pistols and ~30 long guns.

Yes, It's more addicting than heroin, and more enjoyable.

I moved to Waveland Dec 24 2005. Katrina took all of my weapons. Most were WWI and WWII collectables and 4 AR-15's and about 10 pre-ban AK's. FML

go out to the woods, field, or old pit, and bring some old shite from the house or garage to shoot. Tear it up kind of shooting. That too is fun, real fun.

What makes it worse, I know the two rednecks who took the firearms Katrina missed.

I went to every local gunshow for about 3 yrs straight. but didn't see any of my firearms.

The one that hurt me the worst was a 1945 SVT-40.
Stalin decreed that on Jan 2 1945 production of the SVT-40 would end. About 1700 were produced from Jan 1 to Jan 2 1945.
About 5 were imported the USA and I had one.

All I imagine is some redneck using that collectable rifle deer hunting. Again, frick my Mother fricking Life.

RJone, I wish I did.

I had 3 all matching Browning Hi-Power mad under Germnan occupation in Belgium. One had the origina holster with a Waffen-SS Das Reich pin attached to the holster.

I had about 6 all matching German K98s. I had 3 M1 Garands for CMP. Two all matching Lugers down to the magazines, one a DWM 1916, the other a BYF 43. About 7 P-38's one common one as a shooter and the rest early and late war collectables.

I had a German 300 round battle pack of B. Patrone(8mm armoured piercing, incendiary, explosive round. A serious kick in the arse to shoot.

Also, about 15 or so soviet 91/30s, M-38s and M-44s.
Plus a handful of Finnish M-27s, M-28s and 30s and M-39s.

I'll stop now, it's getting me pissed off.
