Looks like more than twelve on the 'B' silhouette to me. But hey--they're all in there where they belong. Congratulations on breaking ground! For all intents and purposes, that excites some of us as much as you! Keep up the good work!

Welcome aboard. Sounds like you have a good instructor. That's a huge advantage. Don't squander it. Take him out to lunch or something.

Nice grouping! Now what in that text message could have been more important than continuing putting rounds downrange???

well it was mostly to see if ide be able to get there when i go up with a friend this weekend, but then i got there and figured, i drove all this way, why not put a few down range... but the text was a snap back to the real world where i had to go food shopping and all that fun stuff everyone loves to do...

im kinda laughing at myself inside because im so proud, but i think i did pretty good for this being the first time i EVER shot a gun of any kind. :D

Nice grouping...and congratulations on becoming a "crazy gun nut"!

You can't go wrong with a Glock; they're generally about as trouble-free and easy to shoot as a gun gets.

Well done.

Contrary to what tv would have you believe, shooting is a skill that has to be practiced and developed. Keep it up!

Nice shooting, it looks like you and Mr. Glock could become great friends!

Stay armed...after payday...stay safe!

Glad that you had a fantastic time...though it was short.
Now...You must go back because you are hooked forever for sure.

And another "gun-nut" is born! Take that, Brady Bunch!

If those groups were shot at 25 yards, that's phenominal shooting by a novice!

If it was 5 feet, not so much...

im pretty sure it was about 25-30 feet. so not totally amazing, but im damned proud for my first time ever touching a gun.

im going back sunday to do a full range shoot, adn bringing a friend... i think i might try the sniper rifle. im still not used to shooting, it still feels out of place to me. but im really addicted. i cant wait to get my own gun. im thinking Glock 19 or 17
