Title: Family Outing
Post by: Uncle Bubba on May 15, 2009, 02:24:58 PM


Three out of five of the family, anyway. We just got the Taurus back from the factory after some tweaking/repair and I wanted to test it out, and Miss Priss wanted/needed practice with her new S&W. Sweetie Pie's first trip to the range, where she got to shoot her great-grandfather's S&W .22 Kit Gun.


Miss Priss handled the basic instruction for Sweetie Pie.

Looking at her target while cocking the pistol, like her Mama told her she should.

Sweetie Pie's not much of a shot, yet, but managed to hit paper with almost all of them. She blew one of the clips off the target-holder with one, woulda been a great shot if she'd meant to do it. Miss Priss is a decent shot but needs more hand strength. I can hit what I aim at well enough. Always enjoy the practice, though.

Next step is to find someone with some land out in the country so we can get in some "kablooey"-type shooting, cans, fruits, and such, with the pistols and the shotgun.

Now that's my idea of quality time with the family. Good on 'ya!

What, no time dilation measurements?  What kind of boring "outing" is that?
