Fired my SL8-1 on Sat. - The Firearms Forum

FN_Project90 · 01-25-2004, 12:03 PM

It shoots great, a ton of AR guys were there and asked to give it a go (they even gave me ammo! woot! and I got to shoot some of their fancy guns). I suck with peep sights, but I can still hit the target so thats good, I need to find out why everything is to high. My 700 police was a big hit, Shes in and shooting like a champ, pretty much one hole @ 100 now (bunch of holes touchin), even with wind.
I like my H&K

I give it two thumbs up, and so did my pop and 3 ar guys.

It is fun to take something to the range that others want to shoot. I have a couple like that. Then trade around shooting different guns. That way you do not have to buy them all, to see how they shoot. Sounds like it was a good day to me.

FN_Project90 · 01-25-2004, 09:26 PM

Everyone wants to shoot my 700 police, having cheap ammo handy is great. But I run a patch or 5 every 20 rounds, I have a ton of round through it, still performs like a champ.

www.google.com search SL8-1 theres some pics hehehe. I'm to lazy to walk the 150 feet total to get my camera from my car and to get the gun and back to my pirch

Did the Google search, it told me to get lost -- no copy -- or would have posted it here for you.

It's cool GG, I've seen my share of SL8s...Somehow a pic of a firearm laying on a tile floor isan't my thing, of course I take "snapshots" too, but in this respect I was thinking of personalized pics, ya know real life, a real TFF member with his new toy

I guess thats the photographer in me..... FN Sometimes I have to force myself to to wag my cameras around with me too, but I've found that its an action well worth the effort, the years roll by and the memory fades, but Fujicolor has a way of preserving those memories.

FN_Project90 · 01-27-2004, 08:04 AM

I had my pop take some pictures, but the look on my face when I was shooting woulda been cracked at for years to come, rofl...

01-27-2004, 10:06 AM

They did the same thing when I once posted my mug holding a target. Wound up being called a bald headed grouchy old Santa Clause.

Sheeesh! The nerve of some people.

tuckerd1 · 01-27-2004, 01:17 PM

Hey Santa, you dirty ole rat!! I didn't get what I wanted for Christmas!!

Crpdeth · 01-27-2004, 01:28 PM

Hey Jim, I think you look cool in that pic, you got that "dont mess with me look" going for ya.

Ok FN, I understand if you cant take a little ribbing! LOL, just kidding Bro....

Oh and Jim, you not the only Bald headed "dont mess with me guy" on here...I'll try to post a pic of myself for ya'll to poke fun of...Oh, and put your shades on, this one will blind ya!

01-27-2004, 01:36 PM

Holy cats! Talk about don't mess with me photo. You da man with the authority piece.

Southernmoss, thanks for the picture of me, I had lost a lot of my
old hard drive pictures.

Tuck, I was gonna bring those playboy bunnies you wanted but they wanted to stay with me. However, I can still bring you Janet Reno if ya want.

Jim Lol

tuckerd1 · 01-27-2004, 02:24 PM

Santa, you just go from worse to worser. You can keep Janet and Billary in your harem. I'll do without thank you.

Crpdeth · 01-27-2004, 08:08 PM

Hah, hah...Well, I was tring hard to look tough, intimidation goes a long way in paintball, which is good because money sure dosen't, thats why I put it behind me for the most part.

FN_Project90 · 02-04-2004, 01:53 PM

Crpdeth · 02-04-2004, 02:39 PM
