All the more impressive when one understands that she comes from a society which is not particularly "gun friendly", especially for women of an older generation. She ploughs her own furrow! Runnin' and gunnin' (slowly..) | |||

At our local range, one of our regular competition shooters (pistol and trap) is in his early 90s. He joined the Navy right after Pearl Harbor and served his 20 years as a submariner. He's not so fast any more, but he doesn't care about his times, he just likes to reload and shoot (a 1911, of course). All of his shots on a standard IDPA target are head shots, whether called for or not. It is a real pleasure for me to spend time with him at our shoots. When in doubt, mumble | |||

I used to shoot USPSA with a guy that the last time I shot with him, he was 88 years old. I have video of him somewhere that I took over his shoulder while RO'ing him, we used to use it to show potential new compettitors that they didn't have to be 22 years old and made of steel springs to enjoy playing the game. He used to shoot a SIG P226 in 9mm. He was very slow, as expected, but his hits were ALWAYS in the A zone. It was an extream rarity that he'd shoot a C. What's more, about 50% of his targets you could almost cover both holes with one paster. He was a very small Jewish man named Murray, a WW2 veteran. How a he could still see so well, and how he could shoot so well, looking so frail was amazing to all of us. We'd only see him a couple matches a year when it wasn't too hot or too cold, but he we always enjoyed having him around. I haven't seen him in years. I know he turned 94 in 2017, if he's still with us I do not know. _____________________________________________________ Sliced bread, the greatest thing since the 1911. | |||
