Angi

How was the shooting range? 

DH wants me to learn how to shoot...and he also wants his conceal and carry - but I don't know how I feel about that.  He says because soon he'll be needing to go into work at all different shift times, and his work is in a not so good neighborhood (think behind the old Libbey High School).  I felt nervous driving there during the day, and couldn't imagine going there in the middle of the night.  

I didn't grow up around guns or hunting or anything, so they make me a little nervous.  My dad has started a nice little collection for himself recently, which is part of what's put the ideas into DH's head.  We'll probably go with my dad to the range one of these days.

  • It was good. I'm still not sure how I feel about it. I def. don't feel like "OMG! I cant wait to go back." But I know what I am doing, know how to load, ***, aim, shoot and release the clip.

    I think b/c the indoor range was so small and there were people right next to me firing a gun at the same time it took away from my focus. Also, I have really tiny hands and I think if I had the compact version of the gun have, it might be better. I fired three clips and my hand hurt.

    In regard to D getting a C&C working where he is, I would def. do it!

     Oh, I have my targets from the range and I will be blogging about it tonight or tomorrow. B says I have a pretty good shot.

    I'm sure if you guys did buy a gun and your learn how to use and handle it, you will feel differently about them.

  • I'm pretty sure DH will get his C&C..he wants me to get it too, but I don't know.  I think the shooting in Tucson got him freaked out. 

    My dad has a couple of rifles and 2 pistols - he actually got one for my mom, but I don't think she's shot it yet.  

  • Aww, I thought you were going to really love it Angi.  I have small hands too, but I like the bigger guns better, they do more damage, LOL.  My fav was a shot gun. I shot this out in the country years ago.  It was the first thing I ever shot.  Now, that had some kick!  I like DH's 40 the best and I don't recall my hand hurting, but this was like 2/2.5 yrs ago.  I'm excited to check out the 380.  We need to get a sitter one of these weekends and go on a date to the range. ;-)
