Great. Sounds like she is hooked. With all the video games a lot of young people have great eye - hand coordination.

Like how she allows the muzzle to flip - no fighting the recoil there! Great job! She is lovely! Girl Power!

Congratulations with introducing your granddaughter to the proper use of firearms. I have read many of your posts and know she has a great tutor. Hope she had fun and continues to learn to shoot.

No granddaughters yet but my daughter does graduate this month from the University. I have one picture of her at the range shooting one my pistols, caught the muzzle flash. Several thousand rounds of 22 and hundreds of 9mm and 45.

That's great! It took me a while to warm up to a 45 acp and she's already working it over.

Good job on both of you. I bet she's showing those pics to her friends.

Well done, Andy.

I hope some day to do this with my grandchildren.

But since my daughter is never allowed to date, not sure how that's going to happen ;-)

She giggled when I told her Wild Bill wants lessons :lol:
Looks like she might be able to give a few of us lessons. :clapping:
I didn't do that good with my .45 the first time out or the last time.
