In door Shooting

"ztirffritz"I put you on the map, but you should have been able to do it too.

OFF TOPIC BUT RELATED TO FLIR:

I'm a huge fan of FLIR. It saved my ass this past Monday night as I was driving down a forest service road around 40 miles and hour and a huge stag shot out of the dark directly in my path. Had it not been for my car's Night Vision Assist (FLIR) system, I would have hit it. When the system identified the stag, it projected a warning symbol in my HUD and painted the animal in yellow on the main screen. It all happened so fast. Bottom line, FLIR is freaking amazing!

Here is a pic I snapped 5 min before the incident:


This is what the FLIR display looks like in my car:

That is very cool

Fritz, I did the online tour of your range. Very nice. Almost too sophisticated for this ol' country boy ;-)
I also went to your zeemap and put myself on the map. I wonder what's taking other members so long?

Great post man

It isn't officially sanctioned by the forum admins yet, so that map might go away at any time. I PM'd Michael and asked him to take a look at it. If they decide to use my map I imagine they'll post a sticky in either the Forum Feedback thread or in General Airgunning.

Wow, you are on the ball my man. I see no reason why they wouldn't embrace it? I'm probably gonna put a mention of it at the end of my posts for now to help get it rolling. Maybe you can add it to your posts as well? I think it's a great move on your part! Wish I could give you 10 accuracy points for it ;-)

"Ginuwine1969"I tried to shoot at American Shooter indoor range in Las Vegas and they would not let me shoot my PCP's due to fear of ricochet. They knew nothing of air guns and didn't want to hear anything i tried to tell them.

Ricochet! LOL
They probably thought you were shooting copper BBs. 

The airgun ignorance is wide and deep, young grasshopper.

Huh, great map-work!

 

[ztirffritz]

That map program is so easy it isn't worth mentioning. It is just a matter of finding the right tool fit the job. I think that took 15 min to put together.

You should add a new thread with that map link on it.

 

[ztirffritz]

I'm letting Michael do that, if they decide to use it.

That is really cool and thanks for putting me on it.

Mike

I just had a co-worker hit a cow on a dark road in an open range area this weekend. He's a firm believer in seatbelts now. His car rolled several times as a result of the collision. FLIR like yours would have helped him for sure.
