Hello, <br> I'am a hunter and gun owner in Maine
and I enjoy the shooting sports alot. Gun sports are
fairly new to me as I had never fired a gun till 15
years ago when I moved to Maine and took and interest
in Hunting.I'am a grandmother and i enjoy target
shooting and hunting with my sons and with my grand
children.There is alot I don't know about Guns and it would be
nice to chat and exchange info with other women and
just nice to know it is not just " a guy thing .
People don't realize that many women enjoy the gun
sports also.I'am also A member of the Second Amendment
Sisters , a group which supports a woman's human right to
self-defense and right to defend her family by whatever means
available to her.<br> Well enough about me . I will check
back later and I hope more women will log on and join
in for a chat.

You will have to watch their every step, having lived in "Crook County" Illinois, if the antis get a chance, they will have a "closed door" meeting and get the...
I just returned from seeing a USPSA match (NISA's Birthday Bash) which was held in Racine, WI. It was very interesting to watch. Are there any Practical...
I got started as a kid in the old Southwest Pistol League in 1962 but dropped competition when the only thing "practical" was the name of the shooting series....
Thanks for your input Richard. I feel if you're competing, it's good to be on a level playing field, and that's what really interests me about the IDPA. I'm...
Such a bitter attitude! I'm sorry, but I do not<br>agree with it. A lot of the warm fuzzy stuff you see in competition is filtering down to the general public...
I made a simple statement of FACT, not out of bitterness, but out of the desire to enlighten those who may have come to believe that the so called "practical" ...
Hi G.M.,<br><br>I agree that as with cars, a lot of improvements have probably been made on guns due to the additions made to competition guns. That's all well...

Congratulations on the win! :-) I've tried a Glock 17. It was the first 9mm semi-auto I have ever fired. I felt the grip was large for my hand, and it jammed...
Midwest_Lass....reference your ammo question. Recoil will only effect your return time to second shot. And maybe make you flinch. <S>. I have not had ...
I recommend NOT using Federal Hydra-Shoks, and here's why.<br><br>I was attending the annual SWAT Sniper Symposium in Maryland this past January and spoke ...
I just heard about this board and thought I would drop by. Unfortunately, the first post I read is a cut down of someone elses choice of shooting sport. Good ...
It was not my intention to defame anyone elses shooting game, just to point out that it was a GAME, and why I no longer played at it. No offense ment to those...
LadyBear1954....The arguement between IPSC and IDPA is all over the Web. My suggestion to you is to enjoy your affiliation with IPSC and ignore the comments of...
Midwest_Lass....Not a thing wrong with Sniper308's Remington Golden Sabers. A lot of PD's have gone to them. I just like what I like. Go with what feels best...
That was my point. It is just a game. I just get tired of people arguing over whose game is better. It doesn't matter. Yes, you ARE entitled to your own ...
Yes Leon, it is all over the web. That is why I thought I would drop in here. I was hoping NOT to find the same old arguements. I just want to get information...
LadyBear1954.....Fell better now? (Smile) Relax and enjoy. If you readback..no one meant any harm. The written word is often the most misunderstood since there...
LOL Leon. Yes, I feel better. As for those questions, maybe "Lass" can give me an answer on going to the ladies room with all that damn gear on. Especially...
Thanks Leonmichel and Sniper for your input. I also just heard about a type of ammo that is "safer" for condos --- and I'll be darned if I can think of the...
What you may be talking about is something called the Glaser Safety Slug. At least that's what it used to be called. Extreme loss of energy upon soft tissue....
