One shot with a Luger

[lugerholsterrepair]

One of the two most satisfying shots of my career. We were shooting cans at a dump site when one of the guys spotted a pheasant sitting some distance away. They proceeeded to empty a Ruger Blackhawk, a Super Blackhawk, a couple of cap and ball revolvers, and 22 revolver at it, all without effect. (One presumes the pheasant sat tight in shell shock at all the noise.) Then I pulled out my 7.65 Luger and nailed it with one shot. A single shot doesn't really say much about accuracy, but I wasn't complaining.




Noel, Sounds like mob mentality. Shooting at a grounded game bird out of season. It's actually mating season. Perhaps she was a sitting hen and would not leave her nest. I can only hope you did not waste the meat by letting it lay and rot. While demonstrating the accuracy of your pistol is admirable I have to question your shooting ethics. I am not a moralist but the behavior of shooters at ranges and in the field has brought undo attention for antics just such as this. Frankly I am saddened to hear of a member who would do this.
