There is a black Crickett at the range . Next port meetup I will bring my daughter and the Crickett. I also have a Rossi pump action .22 that your older daughter might enjoy. It is an older gun , the stock is not too long. It is very light. I would say a typical sized 9 year old would like the Rossi. My 8 year old is the size of a 5 year old though

Resistance .Is.Futile.

I guess I'll have to look up how to clean it , huh? Why clean it if it is new? Ahem.

But if I did , she would shoot.

Just picked up my daughter's birthday present - Pink Crickett. She started asking 2 years ago after she tried Smokin 50's Little Buckaroo . Wanted to see if she would continued interest and she has. We usually use the GFH Crickett or 10/22. I would have had to use a shortened stock on the 10/22 which Old School was generously going to give to us ( use to be his daughter's) , but I really want her to learn on a single shot bolt . Her hand is small and her thumb gets caught under the drawn back firing pin . I'll just have to watch her grip , or maybe sand down a well under the firing pin so it clears her thumb. Can't wait to give it to her on her birthday Sunday. In the morning . Before Grandma is over +1 for The Bullet Hole. They always treat me great . Love popping in there during the day to B.S with the guys Range trip with my daughter on Columbus Day ! I'm a little over excited lol

Ours did that. Lifted up the rotating glass dish and there was some change in there ( kids , damn kids)

I have an award for you too , Howard.

Cute pups. How old is Sasha now?

I do . It fits 2 bodies and the long teles , and everything else Glad you're back !

If you shoulder it correctly , your whole body absorbs the recoil and you should not really need a limbsaver. Shy is about 4'9 ( 2 inches shorter than I ) . The gun is too long for her , but she still shoots it pain free because it is tucked right into her armpit . She can't have an adjustable stock on her Beretta 12 g because it is a semiauto. If you watch the video you see her REALLY concentrate on getting it into her shoulder hollow ( is that what you would call it?) https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=148554091982007&set=vb.126165800887503&type=2&theater

The bruise is about half a foot West of where it should be

Thanks for having us on the show again Anthony , and thanks for all your support!

SO ..you all bring your dogs to Starbucks? C'mon , dish.

Is this the Andy who sold me the super cool camera bag? Or a different Andy? In any event welcome back.

You have Starbucks meetups???

It was really nice meeting you , great day with great company!

The trigger pull is such that you do not need a really thumb safety. Has the passive safety on trigger .

I have the Shield and while I like the way it shoots , I am not quite sure what it wants to be . IMO it has all the drawbacks of a pocket gun , all while being too big to fit in a pocket . Any fashion of carry where you are actually properly concealing a Shield , you could also carry a G19 nearly double the amount of rounds.

No Moire!

Ocupado Sunday , with no sitter . So Pete is home with the kids.

I shot a job at The Stone Pony once and had an engagement shoot the next morning. Had it on ISO 3200 for the concert , and that is what I still had it on the next a.m for the engagement shoot. It was bright out , but I still should have realized shutter speeds of 5,000 and up were not warranted. RE-SHOOT lol

No auto mode on mine , closest Nikon puts on their pro cameras is Program . Keeps people from asking to use my camera that "takes good pictures" .Ouch.

Right. People tend to call lenses a different mm just because it is on a different sized sensor. Which is incorrect. We are saying the same thing , just differently. You are talking to someone who still carries a lens wheel , still uses depth of field charts , and still uses an incident light meter. I also have to deal with so called competitors who are creating bokeh in post. Makes my teeth hurt . I get a little jerky over it sometimes. Sorry

I gave her another vote. Is she the one that was with you Thursday night? They are both cute
