A couple friends and I went to the gun range.
It's good to have your priorities straight. Family comes first. Rockets come in second. Second only by a nose is still second.I really wanted to fly with the Lake Winnipesaukee club today, but my daughter had a volleyball tournament. I have the rest of my life to fly rockets, and I only have three years before she’s in college.
At first I thought the range was at the shore. Closer examination leads me to believe that white stuff isn’t sand, it’s SNOW.
It's Snow. But the temp was mid 40's. We were there for 4 1/2 hours. Had a blast.At first I thought the range was at the shore. Closer examination leads me to believe that white stuff isn’t sand, it’s SNOW.
It is advertised to have a very nice trigger, but I think it is a semi auto not a double-action only. I do have a S & W 686 performance center that has the smoothest DA trigger I ever felt. My brother in law has a Colt Python that is just as smooth.Okay, ya got my attention, I'm impressed. If you like double-action only but hate the heavier trigger pull, try the Walther PPQ M2. Nicest DAO trigger I've ever tried.
The Walther PPQ M2 is both a double-action-only *and* a semiautomatic. Semiautomatic means that you get a bang with each trigger pull. DAO means you can't cock the hammer; squeezing the trigger both cocks the gun and fires the firing pin. In fact a DAO is by its nature a semiautomatic.It is advertised to have a very nice trigger, but I think it is a semi auto not a double-action only.

Walther's website doe's not call the PPQ a DAO. It is striker fired.The Walther PPQ M2 is both a double-action-only *and* a semiautomatic
Pun intended?!Had a blast.
A SA (single action) must be cocked before firing like a Colt 1911 (semi auto) or a Ruger Blackhawk or Colt SAA (revolver). A DA (double action) both cocks and fires the weapon like a S&W Shield .45 semi auto or a Colt Python revolver.As I've always understood it, DA ('O' or not) means that the trigger both cocks and fires, where SA means that each discharge cocks the weapon for the next one. So with one the weapon is cocked in between trigger pulls and in the other it is not. They're functionally the same in that each trigger pull gives you a shot, but fundamentally different in how the do it.
You're absolutely right, I hadn't considered hammerlass weapons.A hammerless (shrouded hammer) revolver is DAO but not a semiauto. Just sayin'.

Cider or hard cider?
I bet it will take you longer to drink them than it did to can them!
