[QUOTE="Small Lady, post: 2919880, member: 126670"] Until June of 2021, at age 25, just a bit shy of my 26th birthday, I had not so much as touched a gun. A new job, and relocating north to a large ranch, where guns are a part of daily life, and my new boss handed me a 22 ruger. Went over a bunch of gun safety rules with me, and then doubled me way out onto his land on the back of his ATV. Once there he showed me how to load it, and shoot it. He simply said to me "aim for the stump up there, but don't worry about actually hitting it". Probably 40 or 50 yards away was an old stump, and I began shooting at it, and hit it my 6th try. I was gifted that 22 ruger, and While it is old and somewhat banged up, it will forever have a special place in my heart. [/QUOTE]
