Today my friend and I completed our NRA Basic Pistol course (as a prerequisite to applying for our concealed carry permits). Another friend of mine taught the course, so afterward we hung out and sent lots and lots of lead downrange. I did my shooting for the course with my Ruger LCP, and I really like this little gun. It did bite me once, but it was my own stupid fault - I'm new to this and inadvertently had my left thumb behind the slide. Deep gash. I didn't make THAT mistake again. My buddy used his new Glock 27, but I think that pistols a little much for me. I got to fire my instructor friend's Glock 26 (9mm), and that was more to my liking. That will probably be my next pistol purchase.
I also got to play with my new AR-15 and Smith & Wesson 442. I liked the S&W revolver, but I'm wondering if the AR was the right decision for me. I'm considering trying to sell it, or maybe trade it in for another shotgun or rifle. I'll write more about it later. I also dusted off the Mossberg 590 and completely blew some stuff away with it. All in all, a VERY fun day.
