Red face fun time at the range

I have a neighbor, mid 60's who told me firing a weapon was on her bucket list. Well we just got back from the range and she had a great time and wants to go again. I shot the first 5 rounds then she put 45 down range. At 7 yards she kept then all in a 15" group and she was delighted. Think I'll start a "take your neighbor to the range" club.

What Caj said. As a certified geezer I'm always glad to see people, especially older folks, take an interest in shooting.

You did a good deed.

By the way, if nobody has already done it (or if somebody has), welcome to a great gun forum.

Thank you all, also just joined the Vet Group. When I decided to start shooting again I purchased a S&W SD9-VE to shoot at the range. That's what we shot today. I also have a 10-5 2" that my father left me. He was on the job for 30 years. I just recently ordered a GSG 1911 22LR to be cheaper to shoot. I carried a 1911 at times in the military,
