I decided to visit a shooting range I hadn’t been to yet this morning to try out my new Rock River Arms “Tactical CAR-A4″. My 15 year old daughter, Leigh, wanted to come along. Jan and Blake didn’t feel like getting out of bed at 7:30AM to join us….which was great because that meant more ammo for us!
This relatively new Strickland Range facility was impressive and well run. I will definitely be returning here often.
I only took four guns out today: VEPR 7.62×39, the new CAR-A4, the Springfield TRP Operator 45ACP, and the little Kimber Ultra Raptor 45ACP.
Here’s Leigh, who has never fired any AR variant before, doing a very respectable job on the target:

This is Leigh’s very first attempt with the CAR-A4 at 50 yards range. Her grouping got better on subsequent targets.

My turn! Thus far I am totally satisfied with this Rock River carbine. Today, we fed it 160 rounds of Wal-Mart UMC and another 120 rounds of Guatemalan 5.56 surplus with zero malfunctions.
Next time out, I will have it dressed up with a scope, bipod, and who knows what else.
