October 14: Well, That Was Something New

Saturday, October 14, 2006

​After work, Isaiah let me shoot his .45 Llama. The first time I rested against the golf cart for support and almost smacked myself in the face from the recoil. After a few times with the golf cart, I tried it on my own and liked that better. The gun isn’t heavy, but it kicks and is loud. I was glad for the ear protectors. I got a tiny blood blister where I pinched my little finger when putting in the clip and some tiny speck burned my cheek.

The revolver is so much easier to sight with than the rifle. I was right in line with the target, but always too low or too high. 

I kept feeling like I was missing a step because I didn’t have to chamber each shell. It gives you the option of shooting faster, though. 

I hope he lets me shoot again. I liked it.
