re:

yeah its amazing how a city decides to take a crime ridden neighborhood and revamp it for tourists...they basically are using them as bait for the bg's. 1 block either way of that nice harbor area is the worst part of town. The police statement to me was "we know we have a problem but there isn...

re:

im not disagreeing at all. I think its dumb not to give out scores. Some of the people in my class needed them! Maybe it would push them to the range more often to improve. If in a situation I would rather nobody had a gun than some of the people I quald with.

dickinson!

I used to read electric meters in dickinson...hwy 3 is a horrible hood. I used to walk through there reading meters with a knife when I first started but once people recognized me I wasnt nervous but still carried the knife. There are places in that town cops dont even like to frequent.

range test

I was surprised at how poorly some shot around me..I am used to military range quals and processes. When I first moved onto the indoor range and they moved the target out to the first line I thought maybe the pulley was busted in my stall. I thought "wow who needs a gun at this distance give me...
