Went shooting with a friend of mine and he brought one of his friends along.  He had only been shooting one time many years ago.  He's conservative, so I didn't need to do any voodoo rituals to convert him or anything.  [:D]

Started him off with pistols (Glock 17 and 1911) and did quite well.  After some coaching, he was putting a good number of shots in the black at 15yds.  Did a good job with trigger finger and muzzle discipline too.

Then we went down and shot rifles (AR and Garand).  He liked the Garand though he hard a hard time getting a good cheek weld.  He fell in love with the AR and was rather annoyed that he couldn't buy one in this state.  "Can I buy one in Nevada and bring it here?"  No, sorry.  Then after explaining that the receiver is considered the actual firearm per the DOJ, "can I buy a receiver and build an AR?"  No, sorry.  "Crap, I need to move to Nevada."

He had a great time and will probably be buying a pistol in the near future.  I also told him to pick up a Mossberg 500 since Big 5 sporting goods has them on sale for $200 quite often.  I'm going to get his e-mail address so I can invite him to future arfcom and calguns.net shoots.

I've got mail!  [bow]



Oh yeah, finally wore my Peace Through Superior Firepower shirt out-and-about today.  At the small diner where I ate breakfast, the waitress read the shirt, then said "Don't you agree that if criminals knew you had guns in your house, they'd think twice about trying to rob you?"  Also had a couple guys at the range give me a "Nice shirt!" comment.  

Life is good... [^]
