Just a tad dramatic there, big guy...My 10 year old daughter had no problem shooting my AR.

All that from a .223?

Good thing it wasn't a .30-06! Heaven forbid he should ever try a .45-70.

Aside from the hyperbole, that guy cannot write. Another woke journalist.

I'd hate to see the effect of the concussion of a 338 Lapua on this milquetoasts psyche.

Wait until he pees standing up, for the first time...

Wife’s nephew brought his fiancé over a few months ago to shoot some. She’s about 5’ tall and 90lbs soaking wet with rocks in her pockets. She had no problems with an AR.

Oh, my. I just love it!

If you'll excuse me, I- I have to get a drink of water.

It just makes you appreciate a father that teaches you about guns as a child.
Shooting the first time at around 10 or so I never felt the way this idiot did.
It makes one shake their head and say WTF?
Yet we have politicians who have the same (gun) experience (zero) and make decisions against the 2nd Amendment.

I had the interesting task of being asked to teach basic rifle shooting to an American woman who landed a job with a professional hunting firm in South Africa.

Her problem? She'd never fired a rifle before. Not even a BB gun.

And to complicate things, she had to be able to safely fire a rifle chambered in .375 H&H.

Well, I love a challenge, so I promptly referred her to a friend who also taught rifle shooting.

He started her with a .22LR, moved to an AR, then a 870 in 12 gauge, and finally to a Yugoslavian Mauser in 8mm Mauser.

She had zero problems shooting rifles and the one shotgun.

And didn't whinge about it like a little girl.

It felt like a meteor had struck the earth in front of me. A deep shock wave coursed through my body, the recoil rippling through my arms and right shoulder.

Wow - he was accurate at 25 yards. Imagine that. More accurate than a handgun at 5 yards. Really?

This actually probably made it easier for her to learn. In so many areas, it's difficult for us to un-learn bad habits before we can learn correct ones.

What utter horseshit.

Try firing the double barrel 12-gauge Biden so often insists is all you need and then tell me about recoil.

Geez. Exaggerate much?

Interesting, but not surprising - no comments allowed about this article on the publisher's web page.

Damn! I wonder how he would describe eating a hard boiled egg?

Would love to see video of the journalist and a video of that girl (early teen?) competing in 3 gun - side by side for all to see.

The description of his “feelz” when firing the rifle did come across like a cheap porno story.
Pretty sure I have read something like that in romance novels too.

Kevin McCallum, tells us how you really feel, seems like three paragraphs really doesn't explain your emotions during that moment.

I don't know what would possess someone to write about "how much of a little pussy I am", and put it out there for the world to see.


I have a 10yo that hits stuff at 100yds with a AR pistol that's loud as hell, and loves every minute of it, yet, this soy-boy... Hopefully he just settles into his macrame class and doesn't get ptsd from stabbing himself with the knitting needle.
