The first thing I let my girlfriend shoot was my 10/22.
I had to laugh at the stance she took to brace herself, She was expecting it to kick like a shotgun or something.
She shot it then stood there with this confused look "oh."
I like how the article describes the rifle as an "assault weapon" because of the addition of the telescoping buttstock and bayonet lug along with the pistol grip. It would be a shame if someone was comfortable while shooting. At least we won't have another bayonetting!
