My new Smith & Wesson target pistol with sight rail and red dot
installed, and suppressor in its little bag, and a couple hundred rounds
of CCI Standard Velocity .22LR ammo. I've been playing around with the
"proper" spot on the rail for the red dot.

We are so proud of you, Krause. Did you have to get help to install the red dot on that imaginary
pistol?

I have thought about getting a red dot or similar but I am just not
sure why. Most of my pistol shooting at this point in my life is just
"front sight", basically just wanting to be able to hit something
"saucer" sized at 7 yards instinctively without really aiming.
I fire from retention and, if the range is OK with it, double tap.
I have rolled a running rat with my frontier scout, shooting shot.
(crossing shot, first round)
That is more like a station 4 skeet shot.

The Bushnell TRS-25 Red Dot I have works nicely and goes on sale a lot
during the year, sometimes for around $70. If I do my job with the red
dot, I can put 10 rounds into a coffee cup sized circle at 25 yards
while using a traditional two-hand stance with my now "departed" Ruger
Mark III. I haven't been to the outdoor range with the new pistol
yet...but I expect it will shoot at least as well. The trigger on it is
very nice. I've only shot it at the indoor 25 yard range, and that was
just to break it in a little.

That's a tandemkross charging ring on the back of the slide, about the
only accessory to the pistol itself I'll probably add.

My primary interest is defense at this point and that will be inside 7
yards. It will also be a situation where pinpoint accuracy is not as
important as getting rounds on target as fast as you can from the
retention position.
I typically train, hammer down, shooting the first round DA and the
second round SA with my Ruger p90. I start at retention, extend and
fire, starting at different angles from the target with different
targets at different heights.
My goal is to be able to hit what I am looking at without really
aiming. I just want the muscle memory combined with my line of sight
It is similar to spot shooting skeet (as opposed to "lead shooting")
In a defense situation, a slow fire aimed shot will be much harder to
defend in court and if you are more than 20' away, it will be very
hard to defend.

A great shot, like one of my buddies, can shoot offhand and put 10
inside a circle the size of a quarter. I'm too old to achieve that
level, but I still see well and can hold the pistol steady.

How many flat tires/blow-outs have you had in your driving life?

Since the steel belted radial tire? A couple. Considering I was
driving 50,000 miles a year, it was a very rare to almost non-existent
event in the last 45 years, yet I still carried a spare, a jack and a
decent lug wrench. I guess I was paranoid about that too.
The EPA says that every extra 100 pounds you add to a car reduces
efficiency 1-2% so it is safe to say the 50 pounds or so you have with
the "doughnut" tire, jack and such costs you about 1% so it is not
unreasonable to say you wasted 25 gallons of gas a year, just on your
paranoia. (assuming the tire and jack were free)

At a certain point my $350 Ruger and a few boxes of ammo are a

because you've had a couple of flats or blowouts over the years. It
isn't paranoia to carry a spare and a jack.

How many times have you *had* to use a firearm to defend yourself over
the same period of time?


Tell us about the times you were sitting down to lunch with your
associates and out of nowhere other mobsters opened fire on them.
We're you packing heat at the time? If not why not? Didn't that
happen on more than one occasion?


There were no such times. Once, in Central America, I was with a group
of associates who were pushing for land reform when some members of the
national army opened fire on several of our group who were sitting at an
adjacent table. The attackers weren't mobsters, unless you think
military officers are mobsters.

Say what!
By 'merican standards I live in the Garden of Eden. Especially when

Odd choices but both are run by Democrats so you make a valid point.


That's just...stupid.

What's stupid about it? The fact is that the cities with the highest homicide rates are run, in the
vast majority, by Democrats.

A case of paranoia there. Pretty common among gun nuts.

Do you carry a spare tire in your car? Is that paranoia too?



How many flat tires/blow-outs have you had in your driving life?

Since the steel belted radial tire? A couple. Considering I was
driving 50,000 miles a year, it was a very rare to almost non-existent
event in the last 45 years, yet I still carried a spare, a jack and a
decent lug wrench. I guess I was paranoid about that too.
The EPA says that every extra 100 pounds you add to a car reduces
efficiency 1-2% so it is safe to say the 50 pounds or so you have with
the "doughnut" tire, jack and such costs you about 1% so it is not
unreasonable to say you wasted 25 gallons of gas a year, just on your
paranoia. (assuming the tire and jack were free)

At a certain point my $350 Ruger and a few boxes of ammo are a
bargain. ;-)



That's the whole point. You carry a spare tire because you need to,
because you've had a couple of flats or blowouts over the years. It
isn't paranoia to carry a spare and a jack.

A couple.
