P-17 fun

Out in the backyard today, I was making fire starter with paraffin wax. While I was waiting for the wax to melt I decided to have a little fun. I set a bit of paraffin up on my target box. Stepped back about 25 feet and cut loose with my little P-17.
Good thing they never said this was a powerful gun! But not bad grouping for freehand shooting by an old dude!!

That is good shooting.
I love 17s... and you are right. Powerhouses they are not, but that can be a good thing. I shot my chrony with one, messed up the sticker real good!

Bill, I have been meaning to ask how you and Betty Lou like your guns, now that they have had some long term use. This nearly answers the question...
Guys, if you want to know what "smooth" is, do a transaction with Bill.

You are too kind... with as many guns as we have, the P-17s don't get shot near as much as they could. We shot them a couple weeks ago with siter and B-I-L and as always, they produced massive amounts of giggles.

I always preferred the term Emperor, and I would give everyone a P-17 and a puppy!

No surprise there, Bill. It was you, specifically, that prompted me to put the only caveat in my brief attempt to buy votes...
