Hey, that was cool! I had a lot of fun. Wish I could of stayed longer. I figure about 2 years of shooting everyday I might be 1/2 the shot David is. Bigger targets would help too. Thanks for the tips David and thanks to both you and Tom for getting me out for a good time.

I guess this is where Tom get's his "spray and pray" technique at his photoshoots...

It seemed a little loose, but once you pulled on the trigger, it lined up perfectly and shot really well. I even got lucky and nailed a dead center with out using the sights. (that's how the police would have used this weapon).

David was the star of course. His groupings at long range were very nice.
And, it was with one of those "crappy" Taurus guns !!!! Thanks for some much needed instruction and advice on my new Toy.



I was nervous about letting my constant companion view this video.
As it turns out, she was impressed and I haven't had any grief about my purchase. I don't think she is crazy about the idea, but she knows that I am seriously interested in being safe and being a responsible owner.
