Autumn's Armory

[xsubsailor]

This little girl has several videos out and this is a very short one.  I'm surprised her Dad hasn't been charged with something 

Check out the look on her face at the end

I love seeing our heritage passed on to the younger generation. 

I went to the range for a little while Thursday afternoon. The only other people on the handgun line was a father and his daughter who I guess was about 12 or so shooting .22 pistols. The girl was really enjoying herself.

I get that same look even after all the years!

Four trigger fingers?

[deerslayer]

Hopefully, if she starts shooting a red dot gun, she doesn't discard it like she did that 19 when it went to slide lock!

[DWARREN123]

Hands are so small she needs two fingers on the trigger. I do not see how she can shoot that well when some of the firearms are almost as big as she is but she does.

She, unlike us old folks, may never need a red dot

On a serious note, hopefully she outgrows blinking every time she fires a shot.  That can be a hard habit to break, especially if you’ve been doing it for decades.  I’m not surprised a seven year old blinks, but if not corrected, it can lead to a nasty flinch.

after about 4 seconds it looks like she stops blinking as much.

Well she has a ways to go but she is only 7 and a small female, still kicks the butt of a lot of folks I have seen post videos of shooting.

At least she didn't get Glock leg!!!!

Thats cute and all but tossing the pistol to the ground.  I am sorry but no.

Why? 

 

[hipower]

Well I started to ask what the second gun was. Then I paused the video several times and wondered if it was a G44. Yes! It was.

Watched several of the other Autumn vids. Wow is this little gal sharp for 7 years old.

Articulate, seems to know what she's saying and doing. Love the little gal!

Because my daddy would have beaten my backside raw if I had tossed one of his firearms into the dirt like that especially with the action open.

I'm sorry your daddy was so uppity.  She didn't toss one of her daddy's firearms, she tossed one of hers.   It's a tool, not a Faberge egg, it will be fine.

No biggie, it was only a Glock, If it had been a quality 1911....

You toss your tools to the ground in the dirt?

When appropriate, yup. One of my pistols still has that red Camden clay ground into the texture of the grip.

Same here, action open or closed.  And my daddy was definitely not uppity.

Yeager know you took some of his dirt?

Yeager knows everyone takes some of his dirt. There ain’t no way to avoid it. It’s in the gun, the magazines, clothes, pockets, and even your damn underwear.

I’ve done way worse.   Stuff happens.  If your pistol can’t handle hittin the ground, why haven’t you switched away from 1911s yet?

I remember getting scolded by my mom as a kid after a day of sliding down a red clay bank. My underwear were orange on the back side. No way to get that stuff out.
