She's mine & I shot her!

Since getting my CWP a few months back, I have been looking to acquire my own pistol. Greg has plenty to choose from but I wanted my own. My wrists aren't strong so I didn't think I could handle a glock or 9mm & I wanted something that I felt comfortable with, without too much kick.

Well he brought home a surprise for me last week!

My very own Ruger SR-22! We took her to the Country House this weekend & I got the chance to shoot this afternoon. On my first shot, I didn't have my left hand (thumb) back enough, so I got what I deserved, a slight scrape across the knuckle. Enough to make me remember that my left hand was there to support my right, not be involved in the actual firing. So I moved it down & continued to fire all 10 rounds in the magazine. She needs to be sighted in a bit but otherwise, I think I'm in love.

I already own a Ruger 10-22 rifle which I've shot a few times & feel very comfortable with.





This target pic is the first time I shot the rifle. Fired 30 rounds. The first shot is the upper & the next 29 are the big, bigger & bigger hole, in the middle. They called me "Dead Eye" all weekend after that.

Beginner's luck, hasn't happened again. But, you can call me Ruger Woman from here on out.
