Girlfriend at the range
I took my girlfriend to the range this morning and let her shoot my .22 LR Golden Boy and scoped .22 LR Classic. She out shot me on the GB and I outshot her on the Classic. Tomorrow we are going to go buy her the .22 LR Silver Boy. I told her it is akmost $100.00 more than my GB. She shrugged and said: "Well, I can't have the same one as you! That would be like wearing the same dress to a party as another girl!"
Women, gotta love 'em!!

Re: Girlfriend at the range
Miss T just chooses a gun outa the safe, carries it til she changes her mind, then swaps it for another. My only rule has been, it has to be one she has shot over the cwp course over the years she has assisted me. She had a wide assortment but a narrow list of favorites.
We have been married for a L.O.N.G time. That's part of the reason. Gotta love 'er.
Your gal shoots, and well. Points in her favor.

You can tell a lot about the character of a man...
by the way he treats those who can do nothing for him.

Silver and Gold just seem to naturally pair off and shine so well together. Let us know how she likes her new Henry.

Re: Girlfriend at the range
Yeah, accesorizing, when she got her 9mm Sig P220 she immediately got a holster, magazine pouches and a cleaning kit. I think she outshot me on the GB because Her eyes are 10years younger than mine (she's 53 and I'm 63). Are there a lot of accessotues for the Silver Boy? Oh well, it's her money!!

There are slings and leather and bling. And of course the wardrobe, shooting outfit for each season and shoes and hats...

Re: Girlfriend at the range
Chucksolo1, Get used to her out shooting you. My wife has been out shooting me so much lately it is getting to be routine. If she got to shoot as much as me I would probably just quit and be a spectator. The women shooters have far better nerves than men. Have fun shooting your rifles. Enjoy your time having her to shoot with. I enjoy my shooting with my wife.

Re: Girlfriend at the range
Well, when we got back to my place from the range, I showed her my Henry catalog. She is hell bent on getting the "American Beauty" rifle .22 LR despite it's cost!! Like I said, it's her money. I know I'm gonna be so jealous when she gets it. That rifle is beautiful.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......
