A few pictures from my hike today in western WA

[Casual Friday]

I wanted to go put some rounds through this Colt 6933 pistol I put together. For clarification, Colt has never made a 6933 pistol, I bought the Colt lower new from Brownell's and the 6933 upper from Arms Unlimited. The local outdoor range is always packed with retards on Saturdays so I decided to go up to an abandoned gravel pit that my Dad and I used to shoot at when I was a kid. Not many know about it, you have to park and walk about a mile to get to it, and the place you park is 15 miles off the highway on a logging road. The road that once served the pit has been grown over for many, many years, that's why you can't drive to it. Like an idiot, I forgot to take any pics once I got to the pit, but I was surprised how pristine and undisturbed it is. I don't know when the last time anyone was there, but it's been a long time. I put 120 rounds through it, I only took 5 mags but wanted a full one for the walk out and drive home. I made sure to pick up all the empty brass. Anyway, I'm not gonna give @Lost River or @Malamute a run for their money but I took some pictures of my little trip and thought I'd share.

Ooooh, P-F.com Washington Hometown Forum get-together!

That’s it... Keep posting pics of the place at the worst time of year to be there. Don’t need any more immigrants.

That would be rad, maybe something next spring or summer.

I was just thinking the same thing! There are enough WA P-F guys to have a decent meet and greet.

I’d be interested. That would be sweet, maybe we could pool funds and fly Tom Jones up.

That looks like a great place to have a Northwest/local area hike in get-together and shoot.

You guys could hike in, build a fire, cook some steak strips, sausages or whatever on a fire. Maybe make some fry bread and coffee and sit around and BS for the day in between shooting sessions.

Nothing beats a warm fire and hot food on a cold winter's day:






You Husky fans sound like you have a pretty good setup in the making.

Well, we may have to find a different location. I've since learned that I *may* have been trespassing. See, that land used to be state land but I've been told it may be privately owned now. There was no signage, but it's not required either.
