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. 

 

 

cool!

Outstanding!!!

Very good to hear.

You can always have a gun cerokoted with the color of her choice

Congrats to you both and many millions of rounds to share with each other!

Well done Glenn!

Congrats !!! Well done.

That is awesome! I can not wait til my kids get a little older so I can take them to the range.

Awesome. Get em started young.

Awesome, truly a great Daddy moment to remember!

Those are memories she will never forget... Good times with Dad... Gotta keep em close.. Very nice

Congratulations. Cherish the memories.  If more Dads like you took their daughter to the range, we would not be in the shape we are in.  After all, we all know women rule this world.

I took my 15 year old son to the Shotgun Shootout on Saturday and he had a ball.  Little B@$+@rd shot better than I did.

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!)

my 16 year old daughter shoots steel plate with my old mark II, i put pink grips on it for her.

 

 

her times smoke my oldass...

Awesome!

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.

And that's the way it should be! Good for you & your kids.

Nice...I look forward to the day I can do this with my kids

And I have to admit, my 13 year old daughter is as good or better than me with the small bore rifle!

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.

Awesome. Good job, Glen.

Non-Firearm Related but it was a good day:

 

BEAUTIFUL weather, mowed the lawn, took a break, smoked a cigar & had a scotch.  Did some some yard work while finishing the cigar.  It was a good. day!

Nice...I look forward to the day I can do this with my kids

maybe by then you'll find the time...

Always heart warming to see parents teaching their children how to shot. I salute you

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.

Not firearms related, but my 12 year old is helping me paint one of our rentals. She WANTED to come help. It was a VERY GOOD DAY!
