Sharpshooters has classes to improve shooting skills. Cost is $125

for a two-hour one-on-one class

with the instructor. Bring the firearms and two boxes of ammo.

Might do it just for the hell of it.



Save your money. Take a golf lesson. Much harder than shooting.



I've wasted enough money on golf lessons. I need to spend a lot more

time practicing if I really

want to improve. I don't see myself doing that.





I've noticed at the range that there are some people very proficient in

shooting who are always willing to watch your stance, shooting style and

offer suggestions. When I had the S&W Bodyguard and was constantly

shooting low, one guy (turns out he's on the club competition pistol

shooting team) pointed out what I was doing wrong. He helped a lot but

I still didn't like that pistol. I suppose if it was the only handgun

you had and shot, you'd become very familiar with it but when you shoot

other handguns as well, it becomes a pain in the ass to concentrate on

the idiosyncrasies of one gun.



My SIL has a Bodyguard. I didn't like it either. I took her to the

range to learn how to shoot it,

but it wasn't the gun I'd buy.



I like the Sig P938 much better.





How do they compare size wise? The one good thing about the Bodyguard

is that it was a good pocket size pistol. Problem was that if I ever

had to use it in a hurry for self-defense I'd probably hit the sucker in

the foot.







Pocket pistols give me the creepies. I dunno why. If I were buying a

carry pistol, it wouldn't fit in my pocket. My fav revolver probably is

the S&W 686.

Over a period of time I've gotten to be great friends with my Hungarian FEG-PA63 in 9mm Makarov. At 50 ft. I can rapidly empty the clip and ping up a gallon paint can lid with ease.
