leanneBeginning Firearms Safety, taught by a couple of SDPD retirees. Awesome gentlemen.
Tonight was the first night with live ammo. We shot just 10 rounds at 50 yards. I'm using a Smith & Wesson .45, on loan from the PD. Everyone's using handguns.
I am pleased to note that all 10 of my rounds were on the paper. Two were in the 9, and another two were off the target but shot in such a way that they overlapped (good repeatable form, probably shaking when I shot). The remainder were in two mostly-horizontal lines across the paper.
I have never shot a gun before in my life.
