is there a gunchick gene?

Here's my mom's target, from her first time at the range all by herself - she has it hanging on her fridge.


Pretty awesome, huh? Look at that big hole in the center!

    Yeah, there's definitely a gene there somewhere.

    Isn't your brother a pretty good shot too?

    Ditto what falnfenix said... my moms pretty cool what with a tat, and a motorcycle and all but I think the closest she's ever gotten to shooting is an air rifle way back in the farm days used to scare away starlings. *sigh*

    I definately think there is a personality trait that brings out the gunnie in people. It might be the combination of solid moral perspectives, self-respect, sense of social responsibility, and the understanding of societal obligations. And probably a healthy serving of spunk.

    Excellent! Isn't she a little old to be putting personal creations on the fridge??? :-) Hell, I'd post it on the front door!

    Posting it on the front door could be more effective protection than those little stickers the alarm companies give out.

    Your Mom rocks!!!

    I have one kinda like her. She's 70, has her own XDm & is going to Front Sight next week for their 4-Day Defensive Handgun course. And she's letting me go, too!

    She has to, I'm fortunate enough to be married to her!!!

    Nice shooting for sure, what I like is that she is proud of her shooting and is displaying the results, that is a great sign. You are a rabble rouser! Thanks.

    Your mom rocks. If a hoard of zombie's were attacking I would want her on my side.

    There is nothing better than the uniniated looking at a target with a smile and thinking, "I can do this".

    Other than a proud instructor reflecting back that smile and thinking, "Yes you can"
