Gotta share this.
I took a kid shooting for his 11th birthday this afternoon. He’s my one martial art’s student lately.

This kids grin as he had all this fun shooting all these guns he’d only seen as toys or read about… Wow. I so remember that feeling myself like when I got to fly a plane or something.

This kid shot .22 through up through light loaded .45 pistols today. He wanted to try them all. Between his Dads collection and my humble array he got to try six different pistols.
That smile will stay with me as long as I live.
