    American love to shoot

    Just had an email from my mate in North Carolina. He joined up to an outside range so he can shoot his new 9mm Diamondback & AR. There were 11 bays that looked like this....Brass Grass

    I shot at an indoor range with him in NC a couple of years ago when we had a full auto MP5 going and we were handed a broom to sweep up our mess then

    I guess that lot are not into reloading.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Not a lot of Americans reload, I have a mate living in Texas we were chatting about reloading he loaded his ammo when he lived here over there he says it's cheaper to buy 9mm new than reloading
    5.56 surplus also is cheaper than reloading, he only reloads his .308 for better accuracy not cheaper ammo, and still they have component shortages,
    Hope reloading doesn't take off over there could be serious for us
