A week or 2 ago, while at the range, Two older ladies show up, they are driving around the range looking kinda lost. They finally stopped at the bay I was shooting at. They get out, looking a little nervous and say that it is their first time here and the lady at the club house said I would be able to help them if they were having any issues. I'm thinking WTF. I got drills to work on, I don't need to babysit two grandmothers that just got their guns. I help them set up their target, then go off to my side working on accuracy. I look over at their targets and they are doing surprisingly well.
They call me over and ask if there were target stand further out, (the stands are in the ground and hard to find). I get to talking to them, They tell me that they had taken a shooting course a week ago and were practicing what they learned. They asked if I would watch to see if they were doing everything right. Sure no problem....Their gun handling... awesome, grip...perfect, stance....spot on. They are hitting the target better than most of the guys at the range.
Hey, ladies, you want to try a gun with a red dot...they thought it was great. Hey, have you shot a suppressed MP5 at steel? Boy did they think that was fun.
It turned out to be a really fun day at the range. Not only had these little old Bettys taken a training class, they were out practice what they had learn. Don't mess with Grandma.
