Just wondering who else here has a hobby in maintaining, customizing or just plain target shooting guns be they classic or modern?  And if so, what are your proudest pieces you have?

I am a big fan.  I like target pistol shooting and I aspire, though its expensive, to long distance(1000-1500 yards) target shooting.  The pride of my collection is a Beretta 92A1 that I've replaced the main spring on and added crimson trace grips.  I've probably put 4000 round through it at steel plates.  I really want to put together a custom rifle, something like a rem 700 receiver with a 6.5x55 Swedish barrel.  I'm saving up for a swfa ss 10x42 scope at the moment    I also dabble in clay shooting, I have a rem 870 for that.  Not a pro trap gun but I like it.  I really need to start investing in some reloading equipment to cut the costs a little. 

I hunt occasionally, but only because I like to eat   Sport hunting is something that I'm mostly against.

I have a small hobby of collecting antique military firearms.  I only have a couple so far, as they are not exactly cheap, lol.  If I can find (or have a friend reload) ammo for them I'll take them to the range for an afternoon of fun putting holes in paper.  I even use one of them to go hunting.  Thus far, I have a WWI carbine made by Styr (M95), and the rest are from WWII including a Russian M91/30 Moisin-Nagant, a Swiss K31, and a Czech-made VZ24 Mauser.

Understood, sorry about that.

I go target shooting with my brother every now and again. Have to rent the guns though. Can't afford to buy one.
