Who needs iron sites when you can just tape a Tasco to the dust cover? This is a TDS SKS sniper rifle.

Scope is off but this rifle is grouping crazy well. I finally was out to get it zeroed. This was from a rest at 200. More than I deserve and shoots better than I ever will.

Anyone know good spots for more practical rifle and pistol training? I think I am ready and interested in trying some shooting and moving.

I think it's a bit out of your way, but BlueCore out of Denver offers some good, progressive training. They've got some good instructors from varied backgrounds, and they're teaching the right methods.

I believe there's some places/people around GJ, but I'm not familiar with that side of the divide. Honestly, you'd probably have a better time finding instructors and a decent range out on your side of the mountains. The only ranges that allow anything other than bench shooting tend to be 2+ hours outside the Denver Metro.

There was a PCSL 2 Gun match over at Cameo Gun Club near Palisade this last weekend. It might be a good place to check in and see what they've got cookin'.

Nice group btw.
Daniel Defense is a great platform. I just dropped a Timney trigger in mine. It's the only thing I found it lacking.

Ill keep looking out this way.

I put a Geissele super tricon in this and its a fantastic trigger. I am also not a fan of the DD stocks. They just dont work well for me.

Time for 2026 July shopping!
Good PSA. We have 36 days left to make an unburdened purchase of anything our legislature has decided is "spooky". Only 5 more days until you are no longer able to pick your own ammo off the shelf....

This is a great time to support your local dealers and hope they can weather the storm for a few years until this gets struck down. If any of you have a rifle on your buy list that is not bolt or lever action, now is the time. A Ruger 10/22 will require an eligibility card to purchase starting next month.

  • Most semiautomatic firearms with detachable magazines are now subject to new purchase requirements.
    • Generally includes:
      • Semiautomatic rifles with detachable magazines
      • Semiautomatic shotguns with detachable magazines
      • Gas-operated semiautomatic pistols with detachable magazines
    • There are numerous statutory exemptions for certain models and firearm types.
  • You must obtain a Firearms Safety Eligibility Card before purchasing one of these firearms.
    • Apply through your county sheriff.
    • Approval is required before taking the qualifying course.
  • Mandatory in-person firearms training is required.
    • If you already completed a Colorado-approved hunter education course, you'll generally take a basic 4-hour course.
    • If you have not, you'll generally need an extended 12-hour course spread over at least two days.
    • A passing score of 90% is required on the final exam.
  • CCW classes do not satisfy the new requirement.
    • Existing concealed handgun permit training is not considered equivalent.
  • The training expires after five years.
    • After that, you'll need updated training before purchasing another covered firearm.
  • There are new fees.
    • A state program fee (currently $52) plus a county sheriff processing fee, which varies by county.
    • Private instructors may also charge separately for the required training.
  • Rapid-fire conversion devices are prohibited.
    • Devices such as bump stocks and certain other rate-of-fire increasing devices are classified as prohibited dangerous weapons.
  • Existing owners are generally unaffected.
    • If you already legally own a covered firearm before August 1, you may continue to possess it.
    • The law primarily regulates future manufacture, sale, transfer, and purchase.

So proud of our progressive forward thinking state representatives. We should definitely never stop voting for them... They only have our best interests in mind.

mmm, govern me harder, daddy. I've been a bad boy with my naughty liberties.
