    After 30 years my wife still can't out shoot me, but does keep me around to lift heavy objects when she is landscaping. I open the occasional stuck jar as well. :)

    I've always been told that something to do with the way their shoulders and collarbones are gives women a natural advantage with rifles and shotguns... something about the bone shape or orientation (don't go there!)

    I'd love to train my wife to shoot a gun but unfortunately she's not interested. I just can't understand how any human being can't be interested in shooting guns. If she was ever accosted by a thug she'd probably whoop his ass anyway....she's a tuff old bird.........like a goose!

    My wife surprised me when she finally decided to shoot. Her dad has always had guns, but she never would shoot so he was equally surprised. We both know not to **** her anymore.

    Didn't see THIS thread, huh? ;)

    Maybe, but it's rare that I see a newbie female shooter stepping into the firearm with a decent posture. Most have that awful arched back and stance of uncertainty. As if they are moving themselves into position rather than the gun.

    this is the second time I took my wife out. I'm trying to see which of my toys she would like to keep for herself. She seems to gravitate to my ruger 22/45 with the pac lite barrel. I am trying to make her appreciate a .380 with at least a little more punch if she does get into a bind. She finds the recoil on my 1911 a little too strong for her to handle

    I just bought a reloader so I could afford to keep up with my wife and her 1911. She just loves that thing!!!

    I get to shoot more as well since she enjoy's it as much as I do.....it's a win, win situation. And yes she can out shoot me.

    Cool! My wife shoots very accuratly when we go, but getting her out to the range is like pulling teeth.
