You can hardly speak for yourself, let alone "all of us".

What's the matter with you Canuckastanians and out islanders. Ya caint
spell, ya caint quote what you're respondin to. Ya caint get along with
DECENT,HONERABLE, GOD FEARIN, TAX PAYIN Americans.

We spell it the way it's meant to be spelled...In the Queen's English.
Y'all casn speak 'merican down there but this is an international newsgroup.

Short video my son took while I was shooting the S&W 627. Alternating
..38 Special and .357 Magnum rounds. Definitely can hear the
difference.
The .38's go "pfff" and the .357's go "bang".

to shoot if she didn't want to, but it would be good for her to see
how the range was managed, how safe it was plus it features many other
activities and areas not directly related to guns.

I purposely brought a box of those low powered, sub-sonic .22LR
rounds just in case she decided to try the Ruger single 10 revolver
that she likes the "looks" of. Those rounds are no louder than a cap
gun going off. You can't use them in a pistol because they don't
have enough power to force the slide back and eject the expended
shell. I figured they would be a good introduction to shooting if
she decided to try it because she had never fired a handgun or a rifle
in her life.

Long story short ....

By the time we left she had pretty much used up all the 380, 38
special and 357 Magnum ammo that I had brought that day. She tried
every gun I had several times.

By the way, the theory that women are better natural shots than guys
was supported by her shooting. Something about them having hips and
a lower center of gravity makes for a more stable stance. She had
several bull's eyes at 25 yards with the 357 Magnum.

Great. It's funny how wives seem to take to shooting quite naturally. My wife and I are going to the
range this afternoon. She's wanting to try the Kimber .45 and the Sig P250 9mm. She thinks that P250
is just her size.

We'll see how it goes. As to accuracy, the target she brought home last time had every round in the
'kill zone'! I won't discuss the center of gravity issue. I've not got near the courage you do.

My first wife was a crack shot with a slingshot. We used to be way into
them. We shot 457 iirc caliber lead balls, she could take a baseball at
50 yards. I could do it with a lineup shot or two first usually...
Jessica is crack with a rifle but never fired a pistol yet.

Too bad you didn't shoot yourself in the head.....and do us all a
favour.

When are you Canukastanians going to learn to spell favor correctly?

When you Americans get over your small Penis length by having to own
guns !!!
