Of course, my 'rough around the edges friend' that joined me was REALLY good because of the shooting she did previously in the wilderness.
So there we were, 2 members of The Pariah Club, having the best time ever.
I did good for only my 2nd time ever shooting a gun.
Check it out:
I really need to give you a close up though to really see that only 3 shots went out of the lines!!!
At first, I used a .22 pistol to get my bearings on the zombie, but that blue, decaying wrongdoer was no good for my target practise. His different tints all over the place made it too hard to see where I hit.
When the shooting ranger pulled the blue offender closer to take a look at my work, he giggled when he saw that I was aiming for the zombie's 'man zone'.
I just shrugged and said, "Well, yeah ... ya know." We didn't need to talk about it. I have the feeling I'm not the first girl who was aiming for zombie junk.
I then moved on to the 9mm for the target you see up above.
I can only get better! My intention is NOT to hit someone, and only give warnings.
If I need to use to stop someone, I want to be able to aim for a leg, so that I don't kill a culprit, but only to maim them to keep them from doing anything to me.
I don't think I need anything more than a .22, but I want to practise with more so that I'm able to use a .22 properly.
I do the same thing with my practise bass guitar. It has the highest gauge strings there is, so that when I play my performing bass, which have a lighter gauge, my fingers last for the full show with full power.
Now I can't wait to go gun shopping when we get to Casa Paraíso. I kinda want to go window gun shopping here, just to look at those beauties.
I remember my grandfather had a collection of rifles. They were kept in the attic in their very safe chest, but I was able to look at them all the time, which I did. I can still see the brass engraving on their hilts in my mind. They were so beautiful and I felt I could touch them with my eyes.
Papi and I realized that there is a possibility that I won't even be able to have a license, because of all the labels of mental illness that have been placed upon me by the ICBC case.
That's ok. I don't need my own license, because I can still practise. Having 'no license' doesn't mean that I'm not going to protect myself.
I found out from the pretty li'l gun toter behind the counter that at this particular range, Friday nights is Ladies Night!! All I pay for is ammo!
So, you now know where I'll be every Friday night.
Don't bother stalking me. I'll have guns.
success comes effortlessly in my direction
:D Well Andrea I would say you would have definitely stopped the threat!!! Don't underestimate the power of a 22. They have killed lots of people. Their bullets tend to bounce around once inside and can do a lot of damage - bouncing off bones into organs. But then again - that is what they should do. You Go Girl!!!! Great job!!!!
ReplyDeletei'm pretty sure a .22 is fine, eh? i'll be focusing on that one the most, and the 9mm for fun. it actually made my shoulders tired!
Deletei'm looking to get them all in the middle. that's my goal. when we come visit you or vice versa, we'll have to go shootin'!
I was wondering if they still had ladies night. If you ever want company, let me know :)
