Re: Girlfriend at the range
So yesrerday my girlfriend and I went to our local gun store and I bought a new Octagon Frontier .22 LR and my lady bought a new Golden Boy Silver she ordered a couple of days ago. She opted not to get the American Beauty as she would have had to wait about 3 weeks for one. She's happy and that's what counts! It's nice to share a hobby with your significant other.

Three thumbs up! One for each Henry and one for having a common hobby you both get into.

Re: Girlfriend at the range
My wife has absolutely no interest in guns, wish she did, however we get along great. She respects my interests.
My shooting is mostly done alone...I'm ok with that though.โบ

Same here. Well mostly. She likes the looks of the Sharps. If she had one I doubt she'd shoot it, but maybe once.

Re: Girlfriend at the range
We just got back from the range and she actually helped me clean the guns. We had a little competition using my scoped H001. We shot 50 rounds each at 25 yards and she beat me by 1 point! Man, I think I've created a monster!!

Re: Girlfriend at the range
You are brave to compete with your woman. Of course you know her better than we do. If the fish are biting better for me than Miss T, I paddle away, because fishing is the one thing she had Always beaten me at. I won't say I throw that game... I just don't keep a tight count on those days.
Tina won't shoot against me, but loves to shoot with me when she isn't busy.

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

Re: Girlfriend at the range
Glad you took your GF to the range. I see more and more females at my range and I think it's great to see the younger gals getting into shooting. There were four this morning at the rifle range. Typically there are more on the pistol range than the rifle range. All in all great to see the enthusiasm.

Yes, I think the women are thinking more and more about self defense. As they should.Shakey Jake wrote: โSun Oct 06, 2019 2:50 pmGlad you took your GF to the range.
