Range Time…

Youngest daughter is here for a couple of days, so I did what any good daddy does, I took her to the range 🙂


And took a bunch of different guns since she wanted to try different ones…


Pistols- Clockwise from top left; G17, G22, Ruger 22/45, C&S .45



Now the TRUE oddity, is my daughter actually liked shooting the G22 best, even though she was shooting full power loads through it… (weird kid)  All shooting was at 10 yards, so not too bad.  And the 22/45 is shooting a bit left, so I’m going to have to get the rear sight bumped over a bit…


Snubby- This was my Mother’s carry pistol for years… Colt Agent in .38



Daughter had a bit of a problem with head shots, so I told her to go to the bottom and shoot there (5 yards).  That’s a good old gun, but not an easy one to shoot, if you’ve never shot a snubby… 


SCAR 17…

And she wanted to shoot the ‘big’ gun (she’s 5’2″ about 120lbs), so I put three in a group and let her shoot the rest.  She didn’t do badly for never having shot it, and the table being a bit high for her (like she had to stand and lean over to shoot it)…


And for ONCE, I got some help cleaning guns, so it’s all good 🙂  


Oh yeah, and it was snowing earlier…

  2. Five-two 120 and she prefers full power loads in a G22? Definitely a weird kid. 🙂 Good shooting.

    We had a pleasant sunny fall day here in the Midwest. The weather pattern is still pushing everything around us.

  3. DB- Not as good as either of us wanted, but trigger time helps!

    Keads- Thanks

    YOF- Yep, good times, and she’s turned out pretty well 🙂

    Danny- THAT sucks! This is OCTOBER, not November!!!

    HT- She’s also a paramedic, so she can fix em up too 🙂 And the weather? Shaddap… 🙂

  4. Sounds like a great day.

    No snow here but the temp. has dropped almost 30 degrees within the last couple of days.

  5. Let me know if you’re ever taking applications for the position of “Son”. I am OK with the modifier of “adopted”.

    Excellent day!

  6. Sounds like a good time. A old girlfriend of mine used to really like the G22 as well. She had tiny hands, but shot it better than the HK P2000sk 9mm I had.

  7. DT- And she’s learning well! 🙂

    WSF/SS- Yep it was!

    Zer- You’re at the end of a LONG line…LOL

    Robert- That’s about what she did.

  8. Jay- Thanks!

    Tam- It’s that anal retentive Navy upbringing…LOL And I bought that little Ruger after seeing yours.
