Yes, nerf guns with my boys. 
I really don't like to go to Conventional shooting ranges so most of my shooting I do upstate on my folks property. Unfortunately, Im not going up there this weekend. How about yourself?

Just shooting the shit this weekend with @Bullet Guy at the Syracuse Gun Show Saturday. No Sunday for me.
Stop by and I will give you 90% off when he’s not looking.

Sunday early evening (range is usually empty) - Taking the Glock 19, Ruger LCP and my new Marlin Model 60 out
Guess it's just not in the cards... my boy was giving me a really hard time about this today I told him to go back to bed. Really disappointed.

I might shoot a few rounds of trap Sunday.
I am taking a class with @OnSight Firearms Training today and tomorrow. Waiting in the parking lot now in fact.

Not in that way.
In what he brings to the table in the way of training.

It would be cool if @OnSight Firearms Training got video of his classes and posted it up.
Apparently a pair of Fishers have set up home 20 feet behind the bank of my pistol range.
I guess I should evict them before their young are born.
Or maybe move my range until they leave.
Either way, they are cool as shit and Ive never seen one in the wild before, so im not going to bother them too much.
Probably just leave them be, I have plenty of other areas to shoot.

@Criticalt, Very Nice !
I was in Yellowstone a few years ago and an osprey built a nest and had young on a Verizon tower.
Yellowstone wouldn't allow the Verizon workers near the tower until after they left in the fall.

That sounds a bit smart ass to me, and I find the insinuation that I would be looking to take something away from someone insulting.. So no, not to learn his drills. I enjoy watching training vids, and I think its good for trainers to inspire and motivate others to seek out training.
I have trained with Ben in the past (as a fellow student), and I don't think there's anyone else on this fourm that pushes training as much as I do. And considering that I likely have more training under my belt than most (besides people who use a firearm for a living) I know all about it, along with how much fun it is.

@Celt, Not an insult. Sorry if it sounded as such.
You have trained along side him in a class and so have I.
Why not train with him as a student.
Ben (Onsight Firearm Training) has a life that you and I would love to live.
If he's not teaching which reinforces his knowledge and skills.
He's training and brings these new skills back to his students.
His obsession works to our benefit.
The better the teacher, the better the student.

To make a sarcastic comment that insinuated I was looking to steal his hard-earned efforts is clearly an insult regardless of how you phrased it.
I don't know him very well, but I would never do that to someone . Ive put a lot of effort in on this forum (and other) to encourage others to seek out training while promoting companies like @OnSight Firearms Training , @Stretz Tactical Inc. , @FCG LLC , and MDTS. We are very lucky to have so many great and experienced trainers in our area.
I fully intend to train with him, and continue to train with the other people I've mentioned as well. Hell, if I had enough free time I would like to offer my time and my instructor and RSO credentials to use with some of these fine instructors.

Fair enough. Wish i could, im hoping to get a class in in June. Its not as easy for me to get "me time" on the weekends anymore between work and the kids. Im happy if i can get 2 classes in per year nowadays.
I grabbed my neighbor from next door (82 y/o widower) and took him to the range for a couple of hours. He had gotten a couple of new pistols that he has been chomping at the bit to shoot since he got them a month or so ago. The weather was really nice (77 degrees here today! ), so I figured let's get him out for a bit. We spent a couple of hours there, and he had a great time. He shot his new Bersa T380, and T22 pistols. I shot a couple of 1911s, a S&W 22 target pistol, and my new SAR B6P. All ran perfectly, and the company was GREAT! I really like spending time with him, he is a great guy!
