Hello,

The above video is of me giving quick instruction to Nancy, my brother's fiance.
I'm the fat f**k (I really need to lose that weight -- done it before), she's the shooter (of course), and Shawn, my brother, is doing the filming.
The load was a 128gn ball backed by 25gns Goex 2Fg.
She's from the Boston area, and I give her a hard time about being a stuck up New Englander who won't even try squirrel. ;-)
My brother was wanting to buy a 9mm before he found out how tough they are to get in Massachusetts, but while I was helping him with the selection process, she was a bit against it.
No longer! She doesn't want to shoot at anything alive. I suggested clays, and she thought that might be fun. This will be primarily Shawn's thing to teach her -- he knows the basics from what I taught him growing up, but both need further instruction. I guess there's a gun club near where he lives, and while I can instruct him over the phone and internet, they need to find some local help before they try to go it alone.
But, that was fun. One shot taken right before they had to leave may have changed an entire outlook. Funny how that can happen.
Oh, and yes, I realize we weren't wearing eye protection. It was a goof on my part. Shouldn't have happened.
