    Thumbs up I finally got him out for the first time!

    Many thanks to pickenup, spleify and Jim!

    I gave Austin his first .22 in February for his 8th birthday and we've been waiting for the perfect day to go plinking for the first time. Today was the day! He had a blast and did pretty freakin well for his first time.

    You're welcome as well as spleify for keeping the spirit of giving going.

    Good stuff!! There is nothing quite as magical as a little boy to be able to put holes in stuff from a distance. I remember the feeling from the first time I went shooting.........each time I pull the trigger today the feeling is still there.

    Glad you both had a good time. I would like to applaud spleify and Jim for helping make this happen too.

    And to leave you with a good quote: "To preserve liberty, it is essential that the whole body of the people always possess arms, and be taught alike, especially when young, how to use them."

    Well Done Gentlemen !!!
    Don't pick a fight with an old man. If he is too old to Fight, he'll just kill you.
