I went to a shooting range with a few buddies last weekend and we shot a few handguns. This was my first time picking up a gun. Wow, thats all I have to say. It was such an exhilarating experience. I started off with a small revolver (don't know what kind). Then I worked my way up to a Beretta 9mm, and then I shot my buddy's glock 45. I want to go back ASAP and shoot some more.
My gf, as anti-gun as she is, didnt have a problem with me going, just as long as I never consider owning one.
***UPDATE 08/13/07***
I took the girlfriend to the range with me on Saturday morning. I don't remember what type of gun they gave her to shoot. It was her first time shooting and my second time. They gave her a small revolver; it looked and shot like a cap gun. I practiced with a glock 45. My aim and accuracy is horrible, in fact, my gf shot better than I did. Like I said before, this was my second time shooting, and it was just as much fun as it was the first time. Also, as I previously mentioned in this thread, the gf is very anti gun, but she comprised with me and agreed to come with me and shoot. I was very happy about that.
Now, lately, I really do want to purchase a gun. Renting guns and equipment is expensive. I blew almost $100 on Saturday and about $75 the time before. It won't happen though. Some of you may call me whipped, but it's just not something that can be compromised on if one of the people in the party is uncomfortable with it. Maybe in the future though, she may ease up about the idea as she did with coming to the range and shooting.
