Took a new shooter to the range this afternoon
Country boy just turned 21 and bought himself a Glock 19 from me. Said he shot rifles before but not hand guns. Invited him to shoot at the club I belong to as I didn't feel it was proper to sell someone a handgun for self defense and them not be able to use it properly.
Started him out with a .22lr MkII Ruger and he kept them in the black @ 15'. Had him shoot the G19 and he kept most in the black on a 8" bull and all on the paper. Aside from correcting his grip and stance a few times the kid was a decent shot. Was happy to see he didn't anticipate recoil. Although he was not a little guy.

Good job! Beyond the sale, insure they can use it properly.

Nicely done, sir! I love the MkII as an introductory piece to work up to centerfire...it's a semi-auto .22 that's reliable enough that they can use it to practice the fundamentals without having to fight malfunctions. I use mine for that purpose quite a bit. It's also a good excuse for me to put some rounds through it at the same time Big Grin!
