I go out shooting with my hubby on a regular basis down here in the Georgia heat. Never had a problem with my make up sweating off, but then again I don't wear much and my eyelids don't get very sweaty.

She likes her Glock 17 and I carry a 19.

Went out today and it was hot as hell. I was sweating like a fat guy at a gun show.

How do women keep their makeup and stuff on when it's hot and humid as can be out there? I didn't care how well I shot, I was just wondering how their face paint stays on in this hot weather on the way home...

I go out shooting with my hubby on a regular basis down here in the Georgia heat. Never had a problem with my make up sweating off, but then again I don't wear much and my eyelids don't get very sweaty.

Sweat running mascara in the eyeball hurts bad....

Yeah. My wife shoots about all I shoot, and sometimes better.

Posted: 6/29/2015 10:04:16 PM EDT

[#4]

Yes. She is a xbetter shooter than me. Her favorable rifles are the K31 and M1A. She owns both and a Kimberly 1911. I bought her a German Mouser for her birthday. She loved it

Mine will go but hasn't been really into it but about he last 6 months. She just recently told me "I was looking through our ammo stash and I think we need add more"
And the next day says "I want to learn how to shoot and clean all of our guns".

Nope, has no interest.

My wife shot an AR-15 before I did.

When we first started dating she told me if I didn't like like EBRs I could FRO. It was pretty much over at that point.

Only if I let her light off a drum or two. She does not sweat either, not sure how they do it.

She used to, we now have 3 kids (all 3 and under) so getting out like that together is probably a couple years away unless family visits.

We live less than a hundred yards from a 500 yard range and she has her own 6.8 AR and Sig P-250. We go whenever we have time away from working.

yes, my wife shoots 3gun, pistol steel plate, and long range precision rifle matches with me

I met mine at a bowling pin shoot in the winter. At her gun club. She came with her own guns and she loves to shoot them, even loves the smell of gunpowder.

B!+€# doesn't come with her own ammo though.... But that's pretty forgivable for how awesome she is.

My Wife is not really a fan but my kids are so that makes up for it, wife has came a long way on her stance with guns, have to give her credit.

She loves it, goes once every couple of years and shoots a box of ammo.

Before she suffered the stroke she went with me regularly.

Posted: 6/30/2015 10:11:42 AM EDT

[#17]

Yes, she does.

She is better with a shotgun than I am and is a great shot with a handgun. Might have to do with her father, who is a highly skilled marksman and was a competitive shooter(he has a wall covered with trophies, and about ALL of them are 1st place). When he was active LEO, he was the firearm trainer and always told most of the other officers his children shoot better than they do.

He was not lying!

She likes going with her girlfriends more.

tiasman...Good on you for following the rules.

The rest of you ought to be ashamed of yourselves.

I love shooting. But in SFL it is too damn hot in July and August, so I'd rather shoot at an indoor range. I will however plink in my back yard. We back up to a natural area. During times when fireworks are prevalent, we will fire off the bigger stuff.

Posted: 6/30/2015 10:24:19 AM EDT

[#21]

My wife and step daughter will take the day off to go to the range with me. The club is usually empty early week day mornings

Wife carries a 26, but loves my AR's. Daughter insists on the romanian and the sniper rifle....

It would be cheaper buying them both a day at one of those fucking chick-spa joints.

[#22]

Yes, my wife loves to shoot!

Posted: 6/30/2015 10:25:20 AM EDT

[#23]

Not really. But she does on occasion.

She has a couple guns I bought her. She goes with me from time to time to keep familiar with them.

She also like to keep familiar with the "nightstand" gun(s).

But really she shoots maybe 3 or 4 times a year as opposed to my 45-70 times a year.

Posted: 6/30/2015 10:27:13 AM EDT

[#24]

She does. She prefers her SR-22 and 10/22, but I'm slowly moving her to an AR15 and G19.

I'm trying to get her ready to carry a G42, which is my next purchase.

Posted: 6/30/2015 10:27:31 AM EDT

[#25]

Yep, taken her to guest days at the range before and she's enjoyed shooting .22LR up to .44 Mag.

She wants her own 20g shotgun now for sporting clays. The same one as the rental gun she uses (Beretta 686 20g)

Posted: 6/30/2015 10:32:04 AM EDT

[#26]

Yeah mine shoots with me.

Posted: 6/30/2015 10:36:14 AM EDT

[#27]

Yes she does, very much so.

She does every now and then - she needs to get out more.

Posted: 6/30/2015 10:43:35 AM EDT

[#29]

Yep she does

Posted: 6/30/2015 12:46:25 PM EDT

[#30]

My wife doesn't but my daughter does!

Posted: 6/30/2015 12:47:53 PM EDT

[#31]

I don't like her coming with me because she is better with a pistol

Posted: 6/30/2015 12:48:58 PM EDT

[#32]

Yes.

Posted: 6/30/2015 12:54:37 PM EDT

[#33]

Yes, yes she does.

When shooting for groups, She'll give most folks a run for their money as well.

She also bought me a matching KAC SR15E3 MOD. 1 recently.

Posted: 6/30/2015 12:57:07 PM EDT

[#34]

Yes, She carries also. HK.45

Can't take here to any gun show...All my CC's melt.

Posted: 6/30/2015 1:06:11 PM EDT

[#35]

Yes. She has a Gen4 G19 & shoots all my AR's very well. She doesn't wear makeup to the range.

Posted: 6/30/2015 1:09:53 PM EDT

[#36]

No.

Posted: 6/30/2015 1:22:22 PM EDT

[#37]

She likes shooting pistols. When I got the Serbu Super Shorty, she wants to shoot it all the time.
She's not wild about my AR's. Too front heavy for her. Had to build an extreme light weight for her with a 14.5" pencil barrel with perm attached flash hider. She likes her AR.
