“the best way to double your firepower is to have another trained shooter join you at your side”

Then I’m blessed even more than I thought. My new wife is not only beautiful and accomplished, she also was on the U.S. Army Marksmanship Team. Her specialty: the .45 auto with which she earned a Camp Perry bronze award. Soon we’ll head for the range together.

Meanwhile, watch out for the gun grabbercrats. But even Obama realizes gun control is a third rail issue.

Congratulations! You are indeed blessed -- as am I. My "bride" of 50 years (come this May 20) shot within ten points of my 246/250 on the TX CHL qual shoot.

Of course, she was shooting my HK P7 and I was shooting "mozambique drills" with an unmodified little AMT "Backup".

The bad news is that night she called our son (who's on the Ft. Campbell .45 team) and told him, "I really like that P7; just line up those three dots and it shoots right where you point it!"

Ouch! "Chantilly" P7M8s like mine go for some serious big bucks nowadays -- if you can find one... ;-)
