My dad said the sights on the gun might need adjusted... I haven't messed with them. I haven't gone to the range in a couple months either, so I'm way out of practice.

Mine has the 4.5 inch barrel... I really want to get a 9mm semi-auto since the Ruger is way to big for concealed carry.

I have a really nice "range" in my back yard... however, the golfers get a little fussy when I start shooting out there, lol.

Have a goodone Brandon. Rob as for my closest range I go to a state run range. It is really nice and cheap to use for the day. And they are one of the few ranges to let me shoot blackpowder.

I'll put you on the list Shawn...

I hadn't shot for ages until last year when I joined the local club. My wife has to stay current on the 9mm for the Air Force, so she gets to practice occasionally on her duty weekends.

There is only one private club in this area, if you don't like it, you are out of luck. A couple of the state parks have outdoor ranges.

I go to a state forest Rob. There are a few private ranges closer to me but they dont let me use blackpowder because most of them are indoor ranges.
