rifles and handguns are two different shooters altogether. I give pistol shooting lessons for the NRA and wonder if she shouldn't ask someone to give her some more tips. It's a ton harder to hit a target with a pistol and men are usually better at it if their arms are stronger. Women, on the other hand are often better with rifles than men because they have more support lying down.

I don't think I have pics of the Hellicats. Those are awesome fighter aircraft, aren't they?

Got some mini field choppers on file.

Here's my quarterly rant. When was the last time you went to the movies? You paid at least $7 for the tickets, $5 for the popcorn and $3 for the coke. Right there, that's $15. Double it if you took your significant other. That's $30. I GUARANTEE you walked out of that movie not very satisfied. Now, compare that to how often you come to Free Republic and all the enjoyment and satisfaction you get from this Forum. Skip one movie a month and donate that $25 to FR.

If you don't do movies, how about your daily newspaper? You probably hate that newspaper. How much do you pay for that? Let you subscription go and donate whatever you pay to FR.

Well, that's it until next time. I just don't understand why people don't get it.

I don't know 'nuthing 'bout shooting guns Scarlet.... In my previous life, we had a 357 magnum rugar and I beat my ex all the time. I can aim a bow and hit a target. My problem is, I don't practice. I have a good eye and a natural ability, or so I'm told. I think a lot of it is instinctive, and I believe my daughter inherited that ability. One soldier I met last week was sent to special training. He's on the list for sniper school, and has the mind set of a sniper, really calm, really cool, ya know what I mean? Kind of like the black belt guy who won't fight. They are a different type of mindset. He was trained on 500 m targets. And get this, there was an 86 year old WWII vet teaching him. He told me this old guy could still tick off a feather on a chicken. What an amazing man that guy is. The soldier, not the old guy, thinks my kid would be able to hit those kind of targets, so, they're going to check out some weapons and give it a go. Their best buddy is in charge of weapons. She's excited.
