A day at the Outdoor Gun Range Corona Ca..

A day at the Out door Gun Range Corona CA...
   First off.. Always practise good gun safety.

Never transport guns loaded .
Never point a weapon at anyone unloaded or not..
Never goof around or not pay attention at range.

Ok.. I took my boys out to range to test out my New Mossberg 12 gauge shotgun... 
For my boys it was their first time and what a blast they had. The smiles, the excitement they had as they loaded the gun and fired was priceless. I know how can boys enjoy a simple act of shooting.. Well. for alot of guys.. alpha male or not.. Its the thrill of pulling a trigger and hitting targets. its the challenge of doing better each time at the range. For me. its surreal , and enjoyable to be in nature under the sun.. and just unloading rounds of gun fire. The sights of seeing a target getting shot to shit or shreds and the sounds of rapid fire gun fire is so exciting.. And just hearing others fire out their shot guns or AR'S is fun too. Today was a crowded day at the range but I didn't lose faith I was the last group to go shooting and oh what fun I had. 
 My views on the Moss Berg " Maverick 88" 12 Gauge shotgun is its simple , easy and fun to use. The kick back from each round is bit painful , but fun. My boys enjoyed emptying out my ammo can of sht gun shells. from bird shot to buck shot. I will say this.. The holes made by the buck shot and bird shot is not something I would ever want to feel. But its amazing see the damage those types of ammo can do.. But back to the gun. It shot effectively and I was very pleased with the trigger action and pump action. It shot consistently and with great accuracy and power. Except fro my hip shot where I missed the  targets  badly..Its not true about just point the shot gun.. You have to still aim to hit a target.. I know I tried it.. In the Military I always aimed , because thats wat your taught. But today I thought I would free lance. I also realized , the shotgun is easier to load than a pistol and has devastating effects when used properly.. But I know my next gun purchase will be a Ar or a rifle used for Long distance shooting.. I know I'm addicted to guns for now and It looks like I'm gonna buy guns at a faster rate .. Like ...every other month? ok maybe not but I'm looking forward to my next gun purchase and my next gun range day. Spring break for my boys is coming 2017.. That's looks like a great day to go shooting. I know Saturday's are the busiest days and Sunday's are better if you want to shoot longer, but I picked a Saturday because its was my sons  day off from work and school.. 
   Now that I have my home defense shot gun and blasted out 100's and rounds on it. I feel very proficient and confident I can shot the hell out of intruders into my house.. and teaching my kids how to shoot makes me feel more at ease ... that they can pick up my guns and shoot and stop a threat .. which is the law in California.. ONLY SHOOT TO STOP  a threat .. but a Shot gun blast to the chest will not only stop a threat. but kill the person.. Which is not what gun owners want but are ok with the facts that a well placed shot to the kidney , stomach or chest will kill someone.. I know it sounds barbaric and .. it is.. But we live in a very different world today.. Listen to the news.. People killing cops. themselves . loved ones.. etc.. so Don't be naive into thinking a criminal will not shoot you.. Because chances are they are high on drugs and desperate to get money , valuables or what not .. to fix their need. For me.. I like shooting because it gives me peace of mind knowing , by training for unexpected events.. I can do it.. and the only way to do that is go to the range and practise.. Practise makes perfect.. I practise combat loading , rapid fire shooting and moving and locating different targets at different angles.. I try to simulate a in home attack , by have close distances and varied angles.. My boys and I had alot of fun and we are looking forward to my next gun purchase and when that happens I will have a review on that Weapons systems..
  In Summary ;
The Mosberg Maverick 88 Pump action Shotgun 
1- is a simple and reliable shotgun 
2- Its accurate and effective at close range and distances further than 30 feet. The damage at those ranges were very evident in the target patterns.
3) I chose the short barrel shotgun because I didn't want a long barrel to bump into walls or doors. 
4) Lstly , the gun was fun to shot and my biys are proficient at using the shotgun for home defense. 
I will strongly recommend the Mossbery shot gun because it was easy to use and effective in hitting my targets. You have to aim.. the myth you don't need to aim is bull shit.. Hollywood drama.. Learn to use weapons and practice at the range is the only way to be a safe and effective shooter..

My last words.. in today's unstable times,, having a weapon is needed to have peace of mind and protection for your family.. Calling 911 is still advisable , but reality is the cops will not get there in time if your attacked.. For me..  rather have a fighting chance for my family than ,, be another stat for the FBI.. Know the laws.. and protect oneself.. In California,, basically if you have a means to escape without being harmed.then do so,, But if time is the essence and family is asleep.. MY take.. respond to threat and deal with the intruder. and remember..  For home defense.. A Loaded gun is a fact.. looking for ammo, in the dark under stress is too much to ask.. Loaded shotgun is okay as long as you don't chamber a round.. and always use the safe lever.. But think about this a unloaded weapon is useless under pressure.. seconds can turn up very fast.. that's why its important to know your weapon and don't listen to others. Listen to yourself.. For me I like smaller handle , short barrel guns because I want to light weight effective weapons systems like a smith and Wesson shield or a Mossberg Shotgun.. 

 Rent a gun and see how it operates , before you buy,, and do research on guns on google or you tube.. They are many videos on all the weapons you can imagine getting for home protection , gun range, competition etc... Its a fundamental American Right to own guns and I respect all gun owners and those who don't , But you should look into shooting because ,, it makes you respect guns and what they can do.. Gun owners know that guns can be dangerous.. But they also know to be safe around them. Until my next gun range day or gun purchase have a great day and night !!
