Cool. Sounds like a great day Spirithawk. I love getting together with family and or friends and spend an afternoon plinking and chatting. Don't get a chance to do it nearly enough though.
Your boy sounds like quite the marksman. Maybe he should look into becoming a trainer himself. The money is good and the work less dangerous.
Thanks.
Yep, but he loves his work. Plus he gets $750 a day plus expenses and on top of that he manages a security firm. He's worked other jobs but found them boring I guess.
Thanks Powderman , I'm pretty proud of him.
At a gun show a while back the Army had a shooting similater set up that they use for training. They had a civilian version program running. You stood at 15 yards and groundhogs popped up out of their holes. About 30 holes and you shot at them with a very realistic mock .45. As quick as you shot one it would drop in the hole and another pop up elsewhere at random. The soldiers were laughing while watching people try their luck.
The program had 3 levels and no one was getting past the first. My son winked at me then asked if he could give it a try. I had to make a quick trip to the restroom and when I came back there was a crowd of people watching my son shoot. I soon saw why. He wasn't just shooting the groundhogs, he was double tapping them before they could drop in their hole firing as fast as he could pull the trigger. Every single one! he went through all three levels and never missed a shot. The soldiers running the thing were practicly speechless. One made the point of telling the others he sure wouldn't want to be the person Jason was shooting at! Jason just grinned and asked to try the M-16 with which he gave them a repeat performance. That was my first time getting to know just how good he realy is. In training he had to perform such skills under pressure and even with military grade pepper spray in his eyes. Anyone on his teem missed a shot the whole teem had to drop and do 50 pushups for every shot missed. At the end of training one of his buddies made mention that he felt like a Bad A@@. The trainer over hear him and said no, you're now a Certified Bad A@@! lol
