Huzzah!  We've held our first pistol clinic in VA!  This was a private shoot so that the Virginia pistol instructor cadre could work through the syllabus.  It went GREAT!  Six pistol students (4 of whom are either red hats or blue hats) assembled with our 4 pistol instructors and had a fine time working through the pistol syllabus.  Messer shot Pistoleer™ with very respectable scores of 221 and 222, Rod (one of our two "outsiders") came -very- close with a 207 as did FaithOverFear with a 205. 

Many lessons were learned and some rough edges knocked off. A fine day!

And a follow up... Rod came over this afternoon and we shot a bit.  A 208 and then... a 230!  Woot!

"Responsibility is a unique concept... You may share it with others, but your portion is not diminished. You may delegate it, but it is still with you... If responsibility is rightfully yours, no evasion, or ignorance or passing the blame can shift the burden to someone else. Unless you can point your finger at the man who is responsible when something goes wrong, then you have never had anyone really responsible."
― Hyman G. Rickover

Actually it was a Ruger, but I can confirm it had the cool ring thing (which they also make for Buckmarks).

I'd like to say I'm sorry - but I can't stop laughing!   ^:)^

I'm just an enabler - always have been.
