Results from my first time shooting handguns last night. I’m not going to join the NRA, but Kate wanted to take a gun safety class, and I was curious what actually holding a gun was like. We used .22 revolvers and semi autos, a .38 special revolver, and 9 mm and .45 semi autos. Yes, the gun is heavier than you expect. Pretty sure that the shots outside the bullseye were from the larger caliber guns, with their higher recoil. Now when I read or write about guns, I’ll have the right idea of what it feels like. #strictlyforresearchpurposes
