As a smaller (right-handed) female, with small hands? I had to learn to push with my right hand, instead of pulling with my left. I tried so many different ones before I had somebody suggest that. Once I was able, I haven't had any issues racking any of the ones I have. (Glock 27 and Ruger...
The Glock 27 when I run...I actually got the Ruger LC9 for Christmas...but am still getting used to it. I have a hard time so far using it - the trigger pull seems very long. And since I shoot the 27 very well (and am very comfortable using it), I am sticking with that for now. (Unless the...
I think that depends on your definition of proficiency...
Do you mean I can hit what I'm aiming at and feel safely capable of protecting myself?
Or do you mean I'm gonna win contests checking accuracy at a specific distance no matter the conditions?
Actually have a similar issue myself...I did encourage mine to get his LTCH and do some practicing simply to make sure there weren't issues if something happened to me, which he did. But it is very much my hobby. Not his. It started as a way for me to feel safe when running whenever or...
Since my little pink card showed up Tuesday, and is currently awaiting a few minute break at work so I can laminate it...I did take the opportunity to bring it up with the kids. Since #1 gets the mail, and all of them can read, they saw the return address and asked about it.
They now know I...
I wasn't intending it to be a loaded question...I have a lot of kids...one of their favorite times to come 'chat' with me is while I'm in the shower! There are simply going to be times I do not have it ON me. Which is when it will be in a locked safe. I need to find a way to handle all these...
And I'm not trying to start a big fight here...
Are you the only one in your house with a LTCH? Or the only one interested?
Right now, I am...and am wondering what age is best for the kids to become more aware. So far, they don't really know. They're young enough that it hasn't been a...
I started running 4 years ago...trying to lose baby weight from BabyLast. (Bad plan...running makes me hungry.)
But I only ran on the treadmill. After I ran my first race, about 6 months later, I started running outside. At first it was no big deal. I only ran a couple miles, during...
well. Huh.
I guess I appreciate this thread...only because it didn't really occur to me that I could OC when I run. (Main reason I'm waiting on my pretty pink card is for when I'm running alone)
Except the clothes I wear when I run do NOT lend themselves in any way to CC.
And now I'm...
Sent in my application last week...now to wait....and wait...and wait...it seems.
Started researching a way to carry last fall...after yet another creeper on a bike started following me. Kept me running on the road, rather than going on my trail, and I decided that was not going to keep...
