:) This is it!!!! This is the weekend I will shoot for the first time AND see my first gun show in Tulsa! :) Did I say I was nervous before? Well I am even more nervous now! But I will do it and report back on Monday sometime. I am leaving Friday so I thought I would post this now, not too sure if I will be online that much the rest of the week. So when I get back I will understand more what you people are talking about. :) Lady DeeJ, I've got the Advil packed up! ;) Did I mention I was nervous? LOL :) :)
 
Let me be the first to wish you well. Have fun and remember B.R.A.S.S.:

Breathe
Relax
Aim
Squeeeeze
Shoot

Rock on, momma, & be safe.

Go for it Miss D. Have a blast (pun intended.) Wear your shooting glasses and ear plugs. Remember, shoot 'till ya puke. No, not really. :D

Too bad you're not going to get about 2 hours further south; I'd take you shooting, too! Any ideas what guns are on the menu? Completely informal, formal training, or somewhere in between?

Observe the 4 rules of gun safety, always! (Link to them is at the top of this very page. [thanks, Rich!])

Do have fun, and wear your ears! :)

Will you, too, be one who stands in the gap?

Have fun, be safe, tell us all about it . . .

Don't be nervous Miss D!!! You will do fine.
Just relax and have fun.

You go girl !
Shoot as many guns as possible & 'aveagoodweekend. :D
Don't worry about fantastic groups to begin with....
After a few thousand rounds things will get better & then you get to "take out" the crotch area of that B-27 target. ;) :D :D

Long path, Jeff will have to fill you in on what he is bringing I can't remember! :) Just hand it to me and I will shoot it, I'll try just about anything but that .357 still kinda gives me the eebie jeebies.
 
Have a great time! Don't let the magnums scare ya. Just takes a little gettin use to.

Jeff,
Go all out Bubba. The lady is ready!
 
What is amazing to me is that 6 months ago she was writing letters to her Congressman in support of gun control! Now look at her!

After the off site safety training we will go to the indoor range and watch other shooters so she knows what to expect. When she feels ready we will step into the booth and begin.

1. Oympic X-Ring .22 rifle (copy of a Ruger 10/22)
2. S&W K-22
3. High Standard Victor (it is heavy)
4. S&W mod 41 w/2x Leupold scope
5. Walther PP-22
6. Walther TPH
7. Walther PP-32
8. Walther PPK .380
9. Browning GP-Comp
10. SIG P225
11. Eagle Arms Golden Eagle (evil black gun)
12. Eagle Arms Carbine (more evil black gun)

I don't know if we will progress this far, if so, great, if not, no big deal. If she wants to continue I will have a S&W 686 6" that she might try some .38 wadcutters in if we can get around the revolver problem. I will also have a couple of .40 S&W's if she wants to deal with more recoil.
 
Miss D, have a great time. We admire your courage in not only reexamining your political philosophies, but also confronting what was for you a frightening unknown. We need strong women like you, and I'm very glad to have made your acquaintance.

Now, try to not make Jeff look too bad ... women seem to have a spooky tendency to be terrific shots! ;) Take care.

Jeff, you're a good man.

Miss D..

Wear ears and .357 is BIG FUN. I'm a much better shot with my Blackhawk .357 than my 1911...and you can shoot .38s. Go with the spirit of safe fun and you will have a blast (pun intended).

My own bias...you will LOVE the rifles

Have fun. Nothing to be nervous about.

Keep a sharp eye out at the gun show--you might just find a bargain! ;)

Pictures?? Cameras and I do not get along well. ;) My daughter is the photogenic (sp?) one of the family, not I. LOL I'll think about it though. :)

Jeff you're not going to shoot? I didn't think you were a wimp! ;) LOL
