She did pretty well...if I must say... she doesn't get it from me...

Oh...and shhhhhh....Classic doesn't allow cameras....but Mrs. Jam2jab would shot me if i didnt get pics.

.22 Rifle


.22 Pistol


.25 pistol


.38 spcl


my carry 9mm


Her target....all about about 5 yards

It was great running into you, Scott. Had I known that was her first time, I would offered to let her try my 22LR rifle out. You guys looked like you having a great time!

[mrjam2jab]

Appreciate the offer. She had just loaded the last set when you guys showed up. We had already been there 2 hours...

Very nice day and great bonding time. Is that a tea cup grip she is using?

Very nice dya nad great bonding time. Is that a tea cup grip is is using?

Ya know...the only thing i told her about grip was where to place trigger finger when not firing and keeping hand low enough so slide would not catch her. The rest she did all by herself.

I actually had to look up "tea cup grip"...as i hadn't heard the term before. And it does look like that's what she has.

I forgot to mention earlier....as we were leaving...she asked "Can we come back tomorrow?"

im pretty sure one of those holes in the ceiling is due to me not holding my saiga correctly on the last round.

why does it look so well lit in pictures!?! you have to find specific spots downrange to find light, although i will not go anywhere else! im there 2-3 days a week shooting haha

also, congrats on getting her into the sport!

FNG19 told me about your post.

Great job!!!

It all starts at home.

If you need anything regarding kids gun information like safety pamphlets, Eddie Eagle, let me know i might be able to scrape up a few.

Sorry didn't talk for too long.. I was enjoying the relaxing time at the range, no rush, no place I had to be, no job to look for at the moment.. just a nice time at the range.

I can't wait to join Classic and B&A archery... CP for guns and I finally found a place 5 minutes away to shoot my bow.

Anyway, great job, keep it up.

If you want to get involved locally with other pro gun things give a shout.

Take care...

Nice. Great way to spend some quality time with the little one.


I have a just turned 5 year old daughter who has already picked out her first gun. A pink air rifle. I can't wait till she is old enough(and *cough* big enough to hold it right*cough) to start learning to shoot. Yea, I like her little and so does mom but she won't listen; just keeps getting bigger and bigger

Both of my daughters left yesterday to spend the week down the shore with my parents. On the way out, Daughter #2...8 yrs old..."When we get back, can you take me shooting like you took Ally?"
