Having a great time in Minnesota

Posted on December 11, 2011 by Oleg Volk

(Photo by Tatyana Volk) Today, I went to see two shows at the Minneapolis Art Institute, Edo Pop (Japanese prints and animation) and Bonjour Japon (European posters inspired by Japan). Both shows were quite interesting, I’d like to go back … Continue reading →

Mutual support

Posted on December 3, 2011 by Oleg Volk

Went to Horse Quarters with friends today. Took quite a few photos of horseback riding. Also got a little marksmanship instructing done. SU22 with PA micro dot (very useful as two of three shooters today were cross-eye dominant) and AAC … Continue reading →

Today’s snapshots

Posted on December 1, 2011 by Oleg Volk

Both photos taken with LX3. Looks like the upgrade to GH2 with 20/1.7 and 45/1.8 will have to happen. The images are just too noisy and the LCD was so hard to see in daylight. Plus the 60mm equivalent lens … Continue reading →

Typical feline: cute but with long-range claws

Posted on November 27, 2011 by Oleg Volk

Browning M1919 on an MG42 tripod: 250 rounds of 30-06 or .308 before a reload…I think this will end the AR15 vs. AK47 debate.

Boberg XR9-S again

Posted on November 27, 2011 by Oleg Volk

Shot it with regular ammo and SBR tracers yesterday. Watching people getting hits on a 50 yard target with a pocket pistol was pretty cool.

Pretty is as pretty does

Posted on November 14, 2011 by Oleg Volk

I used to view vz58 as a quaint design roughly analogous to AK47, but uglier. I’ve since become a fan: the rifle is shorter than an M1 carbine and no heavier, while shooting a more potent round with mild recoil. … Continue reading →

Two things are special about this rifle: AXTS receiver with all controls duplicated on left and right sides, and the Samson rail is very light and makes for an excellent balance. Rainier | Samson | Dragon Leather holster

Good carbine for new shooters

Posted on November 7, 2011 by Oleg Volk

Integrally suppressed 10-22 (AAC barrel) with 4x Leupold scope and 25-rd magazine. I try to start new shooters with quiet, accurate and easily operated firearms. It’s important to make the first session fun. Once trigger control and sight alignment are … Continue reading →

Another shooter joins the ranks

Posted on November 6, 2011 by Oleg Volk
