Today, 42 years later, I too would prolly experience difficulty holding that weapon in the offhand position. As the others have already commented, if you enjoyed the shoot, overall, then be glad, and let the pooh-poohers wallow around in their puddle of pooh-pooh.gunnypinkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10945550915259914757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32278169577563552.post-18544242553543938282009-11-12T00:02:26.340-05:002009-11-12T00:02:26.340-05:00I'll never understand why people feel the need...I'll never understand why people feel the need to give advice to women who are shooting. But then, I've seen women use the most horrible positions, stances, ways of aiming, and so on that you can imagine... and still hit the 9 ring with 5 out of 6 shots the first time they pick up a pistol. <br /><br />Plus there's the whole "How wise is it to say something stupid or that could be taken badly to a heavily armed woman?" question that goes through my head. <br /><br />For what it's worth, I didn't see any problems with what you were doing. I looked at the video and saw a petite woman that I know has a prosthetic leg holding a rifle that is almost as big as she is fire a cartridge that's probably longer than her index finger. I was impressed you stayed upright. I think under similar circumstances I'd have been sitting down after the first shot.Philliphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12244142931909670053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32278169577563552.post-507199269893815472009-11-11T23:43:39.334-05:002009-11-11T23:43:39.334-05:00I'm just envious of the guns you got to shoot....I'm just envious of the guns you got to shoot.
