My girlfriend and I visited the local range today for some shooting. We took the XD40, the K40 and the PPK-S with us. I wanted to shoot the PPK-S to make sure all worked well after having the recall work done by S&W. I put 50 rounds through it and it worked fine. Then we started shooting the XD and the K40.
I was surprised to see how well she was shooting today. The last time we went she seemed a little intimidated by the .40 S&W, but today she was doing much better. Her stance was improving, her shoots were staying to the center of the target better, and she did not seem to get as fatigued as she did last time. She was going through the magazines faster as well so that may have something to do with not getting as tired.
While we were waiting for the lane to open, she found a flier for the basic handgun class the shop was offering. After talking about it for a while she signed up. She has the two classes this weekend. I could not be more proud of her choice to learn the proper techniques in the proper way and take the class. She was raised around guns so she is definitely pro-gun, but she was never really into shooting until she started dating me. Now she wants her own gun, wants to get her permit and is getting better with each trip to the range. I think she is a keeper.
