My neighbor's brother just graduated from Texas A&M and is leaving for the Marine's OCS soon. He was in town over the weekend, so I couldn't resist asking him if he'd like to go shoot while he was here. Of course he said yes. Hooorah!
So, on Sunday we went over to the rifle club and slayed some paper targets.
I hopefully imparted a little useful knowledge to him, but mostly it was just shooting.
I did spend a lot of time with his sister, going over stance, grip, etc. She's completely hooked, and confiscated her husband's Ruger SR9C for herself. (Don't feel too bad for him though, as he has his eye on a Springfield Armory 1911 in Stainless.) Later that day she talked about getting all the neighborhood ladies together for a range day.
Everybody had a fun and safe day, and I was able to do something for someone who is about to serve our country which made it even better for me.
