Came to vist my MoM in Florida today. She has expressed interest in learning to shoot and haveing a gun in the home.
I asked on this board for suggestions about a range take her to and we went to Big Als indoor range in Hollywood Fl.
Nice range, nice guys not to gun store commandoish.
Went through the safety rules with her. Practiced loading and unloading.
Dry fired several times.
Then I loaded ONE round and shot it for her so she could she what to expect. It reduced her to jello, shaking crying, she back peddled all the way across the range and pressed her back against the wall. This was with her not even touching the gun.....
Sad....... She will never shoot again.
Some people just are not able.....
