Last month I bought Fishpaw's 11-48. Yesterday we did not make it shooting, but Tammy wanted to look at new pistols for her. So we took a ride out to Cheyenn Mtn. They had a nice selection to look at. She narrowed it down to an HK P30, Beretta Cheetah (because of Tiny) and a S&W Nightguard in 45 ACP. The guy at CMO was very knowledgable and patient. He knew she did not have permits but took his time explaining to her any question she had. I was very impressed. She is putting in for a few permits this week.

 

Anyway, today we were shooting at Brick Armory, had a great time. Ran some speed drills with her XD and she shot very well. After shooting we were talking with Phil and I was looking at a nice old Franchi 48 in 20 ga. She asked how much, Phil gave us a great price, she said put a deposit down on it . And she still wants me to build her an AR. What is not to love?

 

Ok I am done bragging. who's next?

I'm trying to get my wife into shooting but she's not ready yet (not sure when she would be ready) - my reasoning is for more quality time together but she doesn't buy that, yet. Don't get me wrong, she is happy that I got back into the sport and have met a lot of nice people in this sport.

 

She says that trap shooting is interesting.

 

I can start her on with the safe handling of firearms so I suppose I'll give her a bit more time...

you must have a big gun.

 

My wife never shot a gun before meeting me. She now owns her own .22 and still has another permit. My stepdaughter also now enjoys shooting occasionally with us also.

My wife is pretty damn cool.

Having been divorced more then once , I ask the question. Why would you want your wife to know how to shoot a gun ?

My wife is pretty damn cool.

 

Yes she is.

 

It is all about bonding. Sharing the same interests and hobbies is a good way to spend time together and helps with raising kids so everone hunts, shoots and goes fishing as a family.

My wife is pretty damn cool.

 

Yes she is and has earned two points in my book as far as I"m concerned.

 

She has a great job and she's Polish!!!!!

Mine started shooting as a kid. Taking her first deer at age 9. She continues to shoot at least once a week. And hunts just about every season there is.

 

If the SHTF I cannot think of anyone better to share a foxhole with.

 

 

ETA. Thanks guys :mrgreen:

That night guard is gorgeous

 

the HK is plastic right? yuck!

 

I love the Beretta the more I shoot it

joeybones forget the question of why to teach her to shoot. Having been married once why do it again??

Tiny, the night guard is pretty cool, but the polymer is ok. Maks has a P30 and it is a really accurate pistol. The price of 380 ammo is pushing her away from the Cheetah.

I own a P30. I love it.

Wolfy , a second (or third or whatever ) marriage is the triumph of love over experience.
