Went to Atterbury. His first time at a formal range, second time shooting. He went through almost two boxes of .22 Thunderbolt and I went through the other half box. He even got to hold and shoot daddy's pistol (With my hands over his of course.).
He loved the .22. Couldn't get enough of it. It's a bit big for him though. I'm going to have to either find a Savage Stevens M62 youth stock, or just buy a crickett. He did have an issue with where to hold it. Being left handed, he got bit when he put his right thumb up too high and the bolt handle came back and grabbed him. He likes it though.
Now, the pistol, it made a BIG bang. He liked it until he pulled the trigger his first and only time. He's only 4. It went bang and he was like "No, daddy, I don't like your gun. I wanna shoot the BIG gun!"
Spent about an hour and a half. Was going to let him shoot the SKS, but his tummy ache he had that morning came back so I just shot it and he watched.
He did REALLY good at the range and I only had to stop him from crossing the yellow line once. (Cold Range)
Met Wyatt who was at the Second Amendment March with us. All in all, it was a really good day even with the sprinkle coming down.
I know, I know, pics or it didn't happen. Well here ya go!
