Man, I haven't been to a range in years... I used to go with my dad when I was a kid and I was quite good if I do say so myself. One time "the guys" were taping dimes to the center of the targets and trying to knock them out. I was 11 and just watching... There was this one guy who had been shooting there for years and still couldn't hit the side of a barn. He asked me if I wanted to try. He put ONE bullet in the chamber, everyone stood back, and I picked up the gun knocked out the dime and put the gun back down. The guy put the gun in his case and never came back to the range again. hahaha
The only time I've shot any guns since then was one time in Phoenix my cousin had a 44 Magnum. It was the 12 inch barrel "Dirty Harry" kind... Of course none of us had hearing protection and the shot from that thing was like getting hit in the head with a hammer. I took my first shot and was NOT prepared for the amazing kick. Everyone was laughing. When I asked why they said when I pulled the trigger I was three steps ahead of where I was now standing. I didn't even realize that thing kicked me back like that. A very manly firearm indeed...
