My gripe is that I have daughters that are now twenty-one, getting the CCW, and would like o have more range time with their rape whistles. It is hard to use up the stock on practice when you need it in reserve, but it is hard not to grant the range time when you need the time.
What to do? I don’t do my range time, but I still don’t replace what I have.
Try target practice with airsoft guns, cheap and does help with sight picture aquisition. Then you can get by with less rounds on a real gun for getting used to recoil and bang. Also Gander Mountain, at least here in Houston, has some great laser handguns with CO2 cartriges that give a little recoil. The laser replaces the barrel on a Glock 19 I think it is and you can fire at static or moving targets on a big screen. They also have a 320 degree tactical situation training room where computer generated bad guys jump out at you from all sides. Have your girls seen the concealed holster that hangs from the middle of a bra right up front. Works better than a purse.
