Took my oldest daugher to the range for the first time.  She was a little apprehensive and had backed out a time or two previously but this time she did it.  By the time we left she was loading the magazines, slideing the mags in, racking the slide and clearing failure to ejects (ammo problem, not the gun's)

 

She had a wonderful time.

 

Big thanks to my friend and forum member Sof who let us borrow his 22 Buckmark.  She now wants a 22 in "sparkly blue".   LOL.

Awesome!

 

(Better hope DYFS doesn't see your photo or you will have a tank parked on your lawn and a black helicopter circling some day soon!)

What's sad is there is a little of truth behind that. Look at the thread I started under the 1st Amendment thread about Kid Twirling A Pencil.

 

DYFS sent father a letter threatening to take away all his parental rights and have his son put into adoption if they didn't take the son for testing. Sounds like a sick joke but in reality it is just sick.

I love it...all 3 of my kids shoot and really look forward to it.  They enjoy the shooting itself and they also enjoy the 1:1 time with Dad.  I can honestly say it is a highlight that they all look forward to.

With 2 daughters who are getting to the maturity where learning to shoot is appropriate for them, does anyone have a .22 rifle surplus to requirements because it is now too small for your kids? FPID and matching DL ready for deployment.

Good job, I need to get a 22 to take my girl shooting.

You don't absolutely need a 22,  my 13 year old daughter is fine with my 686 using 38 or 357 mag. as well as my Mosin and my 243.

    • We never let then inside.  Last re-evaluation was 6-7 years ago, wife politely told him that he was welcome to look around the property and he could look in the windows. He saw two white resin chairs in the basement and told her that this constituted a finished basement. And everything in the basement is bare concrete/ cinder block, and mechanical systems. Nothing finished about it. Ultimately he relented and I'm sure that was a ploy to coerce us to allow him in
    • I use an Alien Gear cloak tuck (IWB) with my Shield.  Neoprene back - in the summer it does feel warm but doesn't rub or chafe.   https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-iwb-holster.html Could also go with the shapeshift as it has multiple options - OWB/IWB, Appendix... https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-shapeshift-modular-holster-system.html
    • The  12-1 compression ratio L88 is long gone. This is GM's updated version. it might be  pump gas 10-1 engine The L88 was a aluminum head  cast iron block engine with a nasty solid lifter cam. the  ZL1 was a all aluminum  12 or 13-1 compression ratio engine with the best forged internal parts at the time and had a even nastier solid lifter cam 
    • I like my regular carry holster.  OWB leather with belt slots.  I've been carrying for over a year and it was comfortable and I hardly even noticed it.  I carry (usually) a Ruger LCP .380 - light, convenient, tiny. But...today I ended up taking it off an leaving it home after a few hours. I cut down a big maple tree a few days ago and I spent 3/4 of today loading and unloading firewood into the back of my truck and a trailer.  It was a warm day, I was dirty, tired, sweaty, and my holster was rubbing against my side.  The leather and exposed metal snap was no longer comfortable. I'm thinking about adding a layer of something to that part of the holster to soften the contact.  Anything insulating will make it worse.  I don't want a sweaty, hotter holster against my skin.  I'm imagining something thin, breathable, that won't absorb sweat, and softer than leather, metal snaps, and rivets.   But I have no idea what would work. I'm hoping somebody else has already figured this out and I can just do what they did. Any suggestions appreciated.
    • Check the primers on the ammo you didn't shoot yet. Are they fully seated? If the primer is not just below flush with the back of the case, the first hit can seat it better then the second hit ignites it.
