My daughter loves shooting...
« on: October 21, 2011, 06:58:13 PM »
I started to take my daughter (11) shooting last year. She started out with a AR and
now shoots 223, 308 and 7.62x39. For some reason the WASR10 is her favorite.. ;D

Awesome.  I took my daughter (7) out for the first time a couple weeks ago.  We used a CO2 pistol and my .22 SBR.

Nice one... We will do some "certified harddrive destruction" tomorrow. My boss asked me to "take care" of his old computer so no one will be able to retrieve data. 200 223's and 100 308's should do, i guess. Will post the result.. :o ;D

Eldest has a "before" pic on her phone, of the 35 jugs before they were kineticly dehydrated, arrayed on the field at ranges from 50 to 250 yards....... she did really well with her 30/30 out to 150 ......

I have thought along those lines also. Have a ladies only shoot, young and ,well, less young.  ;D

That's a great idea!  I bet my wife would be all over that.
