Took my nieces shooting!

[67gtonut 847]

I just wanted to post because I am so proud and excited !

We all had a great time

I will post pics when I get back to nj

 

They of course loved the 22 rifle

The 22 pistol not as much, mainly due to the fact the MP 22 does not like to be loosely gripped and at times would not feed the next round

 

The younger one (14) even fired a round thru my carry gun, the M&P 9c

 

Their eyes (including my sister) got as big as saucers when the guy in the next port starting firing his 357mag.....LOL

 

All in all a great day

 

The people down here are awesome... Didn't even charge me full price since I was teaching young shooters

 

The range officer even did an impromptu test on one of them before we went in to the range

He put a blue gun down on the counter and asked one of the girls to pick it up..... She did perfect , trigger finger right onto the frame

He looked at me and said.... Good job teaching

I was proud of them

Like I said .... I will post pics in few days

Sounds like a great day! My four and a half year old nephew and I shot the Red Ryder today. It was his first time haha. I was teaching him all the rules and he did pretty well. It's still a little big for him but we managed. It's great to start them off young and teach them the right way.

Where'd you go? RTSP?

[hd2000fxdl 422]

Very nice job, great to see people bringing out our next generation of shooters to the range..

He's in NC visiting family so I would assume somewhere down there.

That's great, glad you had a blast and got to pass on some knowledge. Love teaching kids and watching their face as the squeeze the trigger the first time.

Good stuff troy... It is so much fun when their young and learning..Some of the most fun shooting i had was with the chipmunk .22 and the kids..

[Ray Ray 3,566]

[matt6669 71]

[67gtonut 847]

No worries Matt

If Ray ever said anything positive to someone on this forum a lot of us would be surprised

[Ray Ray 3,566]

Best way to do it, 22s!

 

I bet the Silo range at CR would be perfect. Nothing better than hearing the ding of steel.

[matt6669 71]

So troy, the real question is, when are you moving down to NC to be free?

[67gtonut 847]

Wife wont move......

 

I would leave today.....
