Jake and I are going to have lunch and then go to Wade's firing range and hit some targets. Update later and a Jake's Take if he's willing ...

UPDATE: We had a good feed down at Las Margaritas in downtown Bellevue. Chili Verde and Spinach and Mushroom burritos were the orders of the day.

Went down to Wade's. I should have called this post: Jake the Marksman! Whoa! Talk about something to aspire to!

Here's Jake shooting:

Here's his typical group - this is with his Sig 40 (Yes the 4 0) at 30 feet:

Any questions?

Seriously, this guy can shoot! We're talking about hooking up with some more shooters next time - maybe down SondraK's way ... Jake can conduct shooting instruction for us...

Jake's Sig is a very smooth machine - has less lift in it than my Browning 380 - probably because it has a pretty good weight and has a great soft trigger.

'Course, there's this one:

Jake was acutally outlining the 2 with his shots - Show Off! The one to the lower left is because I accidentally shoved him with the tripod while taking a picture.

Thanks Mac.. That cash stuffed envelope will be waiting at the normal place. [Geez, I'm sticking this glowing review on my apt door to scare away terrorists]

Dont let him BS you people.. Gun for gun we were shooting the same groups..

Had a great time shooting with Mac. He's good people. Generous to a fault. Everyone around seems to know him. Everyone likes him, And,,and,, I'm going to shut up now cuz I said I'm not going to ruin his surprise.

Thanks again Mac.. E- me anytime for some more shooting.. The next ones on me.. I insist.

Surprise? We want surprise! Give us surprise! Is it candy? A doll? Did you bring us a shiny nickel?

EMCEE: Nothing as exciting as any of those things - bought the pistol. Posted it later. Other surprises I will work on, yes.

Holy Cow, Jake! What a great post, MC.

We had fun JWebb. Wish you could have been there. You know, Jake could take care of those bats in a heartbeat - every one of 'em right between the eyes. Only problem is that 40 would probably tumble down the house in the meantime.
