Dragoon again

Post by joseyclosey » Sun Mar 18, 2018 5:14 am

Had an afternoon of BP fun with my Uberti Dragoon again. I'll never make a pistolero with my offhand shooting :lol: but from the rest position the gun does ok when I can keep it together. This is my 12m indoor club range and the set up I use. A few pics....

Nice set of holes there Joe. At 12 mtrs there should be powder burns on the target mate :loco: :loco:

The look of those "old 6-shooters" is truly classic..... :D

Peace is that brief, quiet moment in history.......... when everybody stands around reloading.
