It's not as scary that way.

See OP for photos.

Some observations form the day.

Shooting guns is fun! I think both my brother and I were like, "uh oh, I feel another money sucking hobbey coming on."

Guy was kind enough to bring his .22, 9mm and .45 and let me shoot with them. Many thanks.

Shooting the .22 was fine, a good way to learn, and basically very inexpensive. A gun is less than $200 and you can buy 500 rounds for less than $25. That's a lot of shoot'n for not so much.

Next stop, 9mm. Kicks a lot more than the .22 obviously but not so bad. Ammunition isn't too expensive, but already a lot more than .22. About 50 rounds for $10.

I brought ammo for the .22 and 9mm, but Guy let me fire a clip from his .45 as well. It kicks a bit harder than the 9mm and makes a very different noise.

Cliff also let me fire a clip from his .40. It probably felt the most natural to me personally.

Best mod ever!

Sooooo, whens the next one August?

See this thread.

Thanks so much for the nod, almost like I knew what I was doing, just a little-bit, maybe. The D-37 took me to Super-car Sunday in Woodland Hills (7-25) many there really had a nice word for the marque >DATSUN< mod. Neat stuff this time out to SCS, the theme was a muscle car event and many of the muscle car crowd smiled at the ">DATSUN<" (wishing I still had my 1971 Torino/Clevland-351-GT). Smiles all-around at the Prado Shoot, it was a great day and fun-fun-fun, thanks again Mr. VS. So a proposed "Rule #1" for the next "Cannon-Run" our little "Miss Vanessa Oakley" has to shoot left handed, standing on one foot & blind folded, just to allow for a base group handicap.

Take care.

Are you talking about my lady? :smack:

That she is!
