Do any of you guy's wives or girlfriends like to go to the shooting ranges? And what types of guns do they own if any? I personally like to go shooting sometimes. And I carry a 357 Tarus Revolver,but I shoot 38 bullets in it as I don't like the big bang from a 357 bullet. ^..^ |

my girlfriend recently started going to the range with me, she doesn't like the glocks much, but her favorite is my s&w model 66 .357 magnum 4" with 38 rounds. i didn't pressure her, she had never fired a firearm in her life so i just kinda let her tell me when she wanted to try it. now i can't go to the range without her. |

Quoted: lurker wow,ya'll must have a lot of fun at the range. Lady_of_the_Wolf i make it a point to shoot hers, and let her shoot mine whenever we go. of my rifles, she prefers my 16" ar, i guess she's just a carbine woman at heart. she doesnt like my 1911 at all. we try not to take more than 3 guns each, gotta clean em, y'know. |
| My girlfriend really enjoys going to the range. She is partial to revolvers, so I bought her a S&W 66 4". I keep promising her an S&W Airweight, since she really really liked the one she shot. She is going to start shooting the 10/22 once I get it set up as well. |

My wife is a proud owner of a little .380 She likes to go to the range just because I go. I tought her how to shoot the AR. I don't think she liked it much but was a fare shot for her first time. Its a 20" Colt, and pretty heavy with all the shit I have on it. So I told her the next one will be a Pre ban shorty M4 for her to use. Ha ha ha. I'll get it as an anniversary present, NOT. I'll get it at Wanenmacher's in two weeks. |
| As soon as I can find a decent woman who isn't scared to death of guns, I'll let ya know.....[left]Edited to add: If it's the recoil of .357s that bothers you, and you are using factory grips, ditch 'em and get a set of Hogue grips; they'll make a world of difference. If it's just the noise, you DO wear hearing protection, don't you? I know it may be a dumb question, and all that, but if you don't wear some sort of hearing protection, you should.[/left] |

Quoted: I've shot hubby's AR,not sure if i like that or not. As it's a big bang. But atleast I know how to shoot it if we get and unexpected guess in the house late at night. If you know what I mean. Lady_of_the_Wolf Don't forget the ear protection [shock] Better yet, for unexpected "guests" get a Remington 870, some 00 Tactical Load and sleep well. [}:D] |
| My wife shoots with me all the time. She has a glock 36 for carry and loves it. She also loves shooting "MY" AR. She now calls it "HERS" and says I need to get myself one now. humph!! Guess I should have never let her shoot that one. She doesn' like the .338WM much, but then I don't care to shoot it alot either. Kicks like a pissed off mule. But she handles it pretty well for the first 10 rounds or so. She really likes the Ruger 9mm too. |

Well Mrs Wildweasel has her own A1 style AR15 Just like the M16a1 she used when I met her in the army. and her own .380 Detonics backup for carry. She wants to get into shooting HP matches with me too, but I am not sure she will like the wieght of the match AR I am building. So she may end up with a hybred lighter match gun for her. (Lighter barrel float tube and no weights to start.) |
