The Glorious 2nd Amendment

While in Utah last fall, I wanted to take Janae shooting since she had never been. We lucked out & the sporting goods store in Vernal had an event at the shooting range where several different vendors had their whole line up of firearms to use. You would buy tickets, turn them in at the tables, and whichever gun you wanted to shoot determined how many rounds you'd get. Can you spell FUN?!

Here's a little clip of Janae nailing the target with a handgun. Before this day she hadn't even shot a BB gun, but there she shot 3 pistols (.22, .380, and 9mm) and a 20 gauge shotgun.

Now that Janae had been shooting there weren't any excuses left. We purchased our very first firearm, under the tutalage of Grandpa Brady. It's a Smith & Wesson 9mm M&P compact, and to make it really fun it has a Crimson Trace laser sight on it.



Janae and Pratt were visiting family in Utah most of this week, so that left me with some time to take it shooting for the very first time. Although I'm the last guy in our family to get into guns, I can honestly say it will be a great hobby!
