JenB, her sister and I went shooting yesterday. I took off a little early from work and we raided the toy store. The girls got to see lots of nifty toys and then I bought Jen one of these:


Well technically that is not legal so it is really mine until the wedding.
It is the new model compact 10/22. It has a shorter stock and a the nice fiber optic sights.
Much fun was had as we corrupted another of her family to the joys of putting small holes in things from a distance.

Had a good MoveMoot. Her stuff is all here and mostly in good places. There are a couple items that need to go to the basement but other than that the place is looking better than ever.
They headed east this morning. It is a 12 hour run so I would not expect her to be on tonight but she might be. No, sorry, we forgot to get pictures. And all the witnesses are paid off.

And y'all laughed when I said I knew there'd be firearms involved in this wedding...

I'm just sayin' is all.

The test of a good marriage will be whether you'd buy her another gun for a first anniversary :~D

Evening Talon; excellent choice in riflery. The 10-22 is a classic that has stood the test of time. I plan to investigate the fiber optic sights, I've heard good things about them (especially for 'over 40' eyes).

Looks like Jen is getting ready for Shootmoot II. Congrats.
