eyyy...sorry to interupt your BSing guys but


Reeds no sales tax this weekend fri, sat, sun
 
Today was Hippie Day at the range.

I brought 11 New people to Richmond Rod and Gun. Brought a slew of pistols and rifles, 9 guns between 12 people. We got there around 11 am. I spent the first 20 min going over the 4 rules and basic pistol operation. Then I let each of them fire 2 rounds from the ruger mk II. Then 2 rounds from the XD40. Then they got split up, with some shooting my friend's 22 lr target rifle, some shooting the XD's, and some the ruger MK II. For the adventurous in the bunch (which all turned out to be) I let shoot my antique Mosin M-39 (with Mojo aperature sights). Once every one was pretty well situated with good safety habits, I gave one on one sessions regarding sight alignment, trigger control, the "suprise break", grip, and stance. After teaching 10 newbies how to overcome the dreaded "flinch" I'd say my teaching ability has improved considerably.
My friend took all the rifles over to the hundred yard line and supervised them, while I watched the pistol shooters. The gender split was 70/30 gals and guys, only two had handled firearms before today. The most "fun" gun was a four-way-tie between my friends FAL, my Mosin, his 22 target rifle, and my XD40. Considering the posse was a bunch of granola chomping berkeley hippies, several told me I really changed their minds about 'crazy gun nuts'. One yoga person commented after I explained proper breathing for long range rifle, "She didn't know how "in touch" shooters have to be with their bodies to shoot well." To keep it fun for every one (including poor UC-Berkeley students), I let them shoot as much 40 S&W, 22 lr, and 7.62x54R, as they wanted, gratis. The 7.62x51 they bought from the range, 5 dollars for 20 (most wanted at least 20 rds out of the FAL).
Good times were had by all, people left with the same number of holes they came with, and maybe a few will be far more reluctant to believe the gun control nonsense spouted by the likes of Don Perata.
Will post pics later.

Vento- That is a damn fine pistol. I'd like to pick up the Pro size.

Miran- Where is that range? You were able to shoot from the hip without someone yelling at you? Can you bump fire there? :teeth
