Wife's first shot with Henry

Post by Oldbrass » Fri Jan 17, 2025 3:02 pm

Wife wanted to do some plinking with her 38 out back of property, I introduced her to the Golden Boy. 200 ronds later she wants one... cans at 20 yards she did great but forgot all about the 38

Just something about a lever gun. And cheaper to shoot a 22.

Good for her. Yeah, even after all these years, there's still something about a lever gun.

If I showed my wife how to shoot I'd have to sleep with one eye open the rest of my life.

Miss T liked the Golden Boy, but she loved the Big Boy 357 Carbine.
You can tell a lot about the character of a man...
by the way he treats those who can do nothing for him.

I don't look back at the things I can't do anymore with regret, I just look forward to the things I still can.
