Misses wants to go a shooting......
« on: March 23, 2012, 05:25:00 AM »
The misses turned to me and says she wants to go shooting soon.   I was shocked that she said this.  She has been shooting only twice with me in 37 years and never showed any interest till now with her CCW education and permit.  I went out and got her a taurus model 94 revolver 9 shot 22lr to play with first.  I recently picked up a S&W K22 masterpiece revolver in 22lr w/6'' barrel and a colt police positive 22lr revolver w/6'' barrel that she is going to try out too.  I'm bringing the ruger mkI 22 suto pistol too.  She actually shot the taurus 94 in double action too.  I'm also bringing the ruger 357mag with the 38 special rounds. I may let her try the larger 9mm luger pistols too.  Its time to ween her on the bigger calibers too. I may get her to join a winter ladies shooting class at the local gun club too.

I bought a stainless 4 inch 94 Taurus a couple of years ago and my wife fell in love with it. When she showed me that she was safe with it and could shoot it well I gave it to her. It's now her car, camping and fishing gun. Way cool that your wife is getting into this with you.

Right now my problem is the louder bang of the magnum handguns i think scares her right now.  I need to go slowly into the larger louder guns.  I hope she likes the 6,5mm swede mausers when all is said and done.
