Dallas Safari Club Rings In New Year for USA Shooting with $25,000 Grant
Looking back over 2017
Time for the traditional New Years post … Looking back at last year’s post, I see that not a lot has changed. BBTI had a total of 433,673 visitors in 2017. That’s about 14,000 fewer than in 2016, though there was a significant uptick in the monthly numbers towards the end of last year. And […]![]()

Range Report 19 December 2017
Took a good cross-section of pistols to the range today, calibers ranging from .32ACP to .44 Magnum. Four of the guns were over a century old, but you wouldn’t know it from the way they work! Starting with the Colt 1903 .32 ACP- This gun was manufactured in 1912 and I bought it used in […]![]()
