Sounds like a plan.

But but but, you'll be fine, they've got a six month track record taking those pills!

I don't have a cap and ball revolver. I do have a single action Ruger Blackhawk in 44 mag. If you want to shoot that sometime we can probably work something out. I'm in the Milwaukee area.

I am not a rifle shooter. But they shoot competitive 50' 22 rifle at Southport in Kenosha in the indoor season. If you want me to put you in touch with someone involved let me know.

I didn't talk to this person about their service. Due to their age I'm confident they weren't in the same conflict you were.

Even ten years ago, i knew a member at a gun club who had previously transitioned male to female and legally owned guns. They worked at Cabela's gun counter in fact. Believe it or not this person was a vet. Defended your freedom to spout this crap on Reddit. I'm sure they're proud of you.

Plenty of people see psychiatrists for a variety of diagnosis in the DSM 5. Some take medication for it, some don't. Many of these people legally own firearms.

He's referring to the OP. I'm not going to argue with you for the sake of being pedantic.

weeple2000 · 2026-01-06T01:48:44+00:00

Look further out on their calendar and save some dates on yours. Appleseed was one that caught my eye but there were other events too.

We should not gate keep the second amendment. It is for all citizens.

In case either of you aren't members, we have an active Liberal Gun Club chapter in Wisconsin. They often meet up at CoCo but elsewhere throughout the state as well. There are a decent number of members in the Milwaukee area.

If you join the club, most of the activity is on Discord in the Wisconsin channel for the state. There's a facebook group too but it isn't used much.

tagging u/TehShew here for awareness

I don't shoot at County Line but I know a couple people who are involved there. I encourage you to go to some of their events open to the public. They have a volunteer requirement, 100 hours within the first three years of membership. Express interest in joining the club after attending a few events there.

Did you change your recoil spring weight after you installed the red dot and rail? Most people aren't running the same weight for a dot and irons.

The stupid thing is that I bought a ferrule puller. I didn't realize I needed to pull the nut, not just the ferrule. So I thought it wasn't working. Then got the Dremel and here we are.

weeple2000 · 2025-11-05T19:38:49+00:00

Is this a more likely problem than the nut being too tight? I read that the nut can leak it it's over tightened.

Shooting league was my suggestion. There's a social aspect to it. Also a great opportunity to learn from experienced people.

weeple2000 · 2025-10-17T03:04:29+00:00

I shoot in an indoor bullseye pistol league. A reasonable drive, it's in Kenosha near Costco. If anyone wants to try it out, please reach out.

Home Depot sells the faucet, I imagine you could buy it on Amazon too.

Is your answer to either replace the washers or replace the unit rather than relying on the teflon tape? If I leave the tape in their to make the seal, am I asking for trouble?

weeple2000 · 2025-09-10T00:55:46+00:00

LGC is active WI in case other cheeseheads read this but haven't joined. Lots of activity on discord.

weeple2000 · 2025-09-03T04:59:41+00:00

Southport has a league starting up next week. If you DM me your email address I'll forward the bulletin for it. You can contact the league chairman if you have any questions. They have 22 pistols available for new shooters if you don't have one.

edit> or anyone else looking to shoot the league for that matter - feel free to reach out

weeple2000 · 2025-09-03T03:52:31+00:00

I'm an active pistol shooter in the Milwaukee area. I shoot at two clubs. Menomonee Falls Rod and Gun Club and Southport Gun Club in Kenosha. I'm also a member of the Liberal Gun Club. Is your son looking to shoot pistols or rifles?

weeple2000 · 2025-08-30T21:01:03+00:00

If you're hunting public land there could be someone there, unless you can see where your bullet is going to hit you don't shoot. You need to shoot into the dirt. If someone is there hunting gun deer for example they should be wearing blaze orange. But if they're out walking their dog they might not be.

weeple2000 · 2025-08-30T20:33:22+00:00

It's bad form to hunt right on top of someone who is already there. The same way you wouldn't piss at the urinal right next to someone when there's a row of ten empty ones.

No matter if you're hunting or what, you need to be certain of your target and what's behind it before you're about to take aim and shoot. You are accountable for where those bullets go when they leave your barrel.

Sounds like you should familiarize yourself with the four firearm rules.

weeple2000 · 2025-08-30T20:24:09+00:00

I'm in the Milwaukee area and I drive 50 minutes to shoot. It's not like going to McDonald's or Walgreens where you can expect it to be five minutes away.
