...pistol range, that is! Obviously, carrying target rifles would prove problematic, but my range bag with 3 pistols fit very nicey in the underseat compartment of my MS-3.
Approx 20mi one way on a beautiful Sunday led me to my shooting club via back-roads (so much nicer than the stress of freeway). About an hour & a half of plinking (had to test-fire a coupe of recent acquisitions) then back on the road, and home in time for dinner.
All told, a very satisfying day! Any other shooter/scooterists out there?

when i take my scooter to the range i am able to bring my mossberg 590 bullpup D.E. 50 CAL GLOCK 26, cz 40cal.. and my smith & wesson model 41 with the 7 inch barrel.. and they all fit nicely under my seat... I do get a few spectators when i leave the range and head to my scooter.. i guess they wonder how is he gonna fit all that stuff on that little scoot... I ride a 150cc tank touring deluxe... took off rear basket... my bad the glock stays on my hip...  |

Glock 27. I don't believe in the ammo shortage. as cynical as I have become, I also belive all businesses are in business for a reason, and if the political wind makes them able to manufacture a shortage by slowing production like the oil industry does, they will do it. It'a all about supply and demand. everyone worries about the curernt administration so we slow down production and create a shortage and make an ass load of money. That is why, just like stocks, you buy ammo when it is cheap. I have been stocking up for years, and haven't bought any new ammo in well over 6 months, and don't have or intend to. I have what I need to defend me and mine as well as a few friends and neighbors if they are nice. :~)

i haven't brought any ammo in about a year, but i use to go to the range on a weekly basis... now its a once in a blue moon... and when i did go i use to go through a few hundred rounds..
now its very limmited... i had to pick up a new Hobie.. I feel like i have to hold on to what i got left.. The only thing i really shot at the range now a days are my shotguns and 22 cal.
those are the only ammunition really available..
So now i go kayak fishing once a week...
all i got to do is figure out a way to transport mt 13 foot kayak on my scooter ;D

Gotta do a stint on the Interstate to get to my Gun Club, which is a no-no with a 50cc.
It would be great for changing targets on the 300yd range.
