That's right, I'm back in love- with my Beretta Neos pistol. [ed note: mine is the 3rd one from the top, 6", plain black] I haven't been shooting this gun much because most of our shooting trips lately have been to the desert or outdoor range where a rifle is a better choice. Plus, a sight adjustment screw had fallen out and it took me a while to get a new one from Beretta.
But I finally did get the needed screw and I had some time today to go to Impact Guns. I first got the gun shooting straight with the open sights and then I reinstalled one of the two red dot optical sights I have for this gun. I really like this compact reflex sight but it had fallen apart some months ago and after putting it back together, I just never found the time to remount it and sight it in. So I did that today too.
I had forgotten just how much fun it is to shoot 22 caliber holes into bullseye targets just for the sake of trying to get the holes close together. I used up 4 boxes of shells, 5 at a time today and it was a very relaxing, pleasing bit of fun. I did have to tweak both sets of sights to get them shooting where I was pointing but it was simple and focused and successful.
I didn't keep any targets to photograph, (they weren't that impressive) I just went and had a really good time. My Ruger got a few rounds through it to keep me honest and my P11 too, just to be certain I could hit what I was pointing at without embarrasement. They both work just fine.
But shooting that accurate little Neos is a real treat! I'm still thinking that when school is over I might try getting involved in pin-shooting with that gun.
Its already clean, but maybe I'll go out to the shed and wipe it down again...
