New Shooter recruited!
« on: September 05, 2009, 05:21:57 PM »
My BIL, a lifelong MA resident, union laborer for UPS and generally a liberal with centerist/moderate/tin foil hat wearing tendencies, has gained his LTC and has commited to becoming one of the Americans that we all speak of so fondly and take control of his life and those that depend on him.  It only took about 54 years for him to become one of the thinking section of humanity but it's never too late.

He has become an NRA member and has asked for my guidance in deciding the best firearm for his personal needs.  Since I will be living only a stones throw from the range and his UPS terminal is right up the road, I will be happy to oblige.  He's eager to learn but I told him that it's my way or NO way.  The final decision for purchase is up to him but the rules of safety reign supreme!

I will keep y'awl posted with his progress.

 ;)

Thank you, I have a recovering Obama supporter, with a new CZ-75 purchase, and several weeks of range therapy to de-program him. Now he wants to join the NRA, and took his CCW class. The path of a thousand miles begins with the first step.....

That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."

Actually, it might become a family affair.  My Sis-in-law and her husband are also going to make a trip to the range.  My daughter has become a recruiter as well and offered her P22 for the newbies to learn the basics.  My BIL has already done a little range work but is undecided as to revolver or pistol.

This should be fun!  Congrats to you as well TW! ;)

Way to go Timothy. Your hard work is paying off.

Excellent news, Timothy, most excellent!

And don't knock the time it took - it took me almost that long to see through the liberal fog. Now I'm making up for lost time. See, there's this hot, cute, sweet little P250 in .45ACP I got my eye on. . . . .    ;)

Way to go Tim! I'll be interested to see the outcome.

Awesome Tim and TW. Every person that we add to our ranks can only benefit all of us in the long run!!!
