My #2 son came to visit over the New Years Eve weekend. He handled my AR-15 like a typical Marine. The last time we spent time together he was shooting my SKS and Mini-14. I would have taken him to the range, but it was 15 degrees and snowing like crazy. The road to the range was inaccessible even with a 4x4.

Teaching the young ladies good marksmanship is time well invested. They often have more patience and turn out to be very fine marksman. The other "life" skills are pretty important too. Being competent to change a tire can be a lifesaver.

Yes. Folks in North Dakota tend to be helpful, but I want the girls to be self-sufficient. Imho, the more they know, the better off they are. Just basic survival skills, and something they can build on if the need arises.
