Goinghuntin Posted July 28, 2010 Report Share Posted July 28, 2010 With a little persuasion on my part (a little?) my wife bought her first gun last weekend. I'm very very very proud of her After all, when we first met she had never even touched a gun. I brought her along shooting and after awhile she finally asked if she could shoot. She practically took my .22 away from me :jaw: After that she just HAD to shoot a 12ga. I finally convinced her to spend the money on herself and buy her a gun of her own. Remington 870 Express Jr. She was a little embarrassed about buying a Jr. model gun but I was so proud of her she quickly forgot about it. She hopes to shoot a bigger buck than me this year. To tell the truth, I wouldn't even care :cowboy: Nathan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted July 28, 2010 Report Share Posted July 28, 2010 Nothing wrong with women or small shooters buying the youth or jr models. Bought my wife and oldest daughter an 870 express youth 20 gauge, fits them both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbHunterNY Posted July 28, 2010 Report Share Posted July 28, 2010 sweet! she won't think about it ever after she realizes it fits her much better, which has allowed her to out shoot you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took her out shooting last weekend, which was only her second time at bat. She's already a crack shot :jaw: Soon, she will be out-shooting me lol Nathan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turkeygirl Posted July 31, 2010 Report Share Posted July 31, 2010 Congrats to her! I own a Mossberg 500 Super Bantam...some think it's a youth gun. I think it's a super turkey killer for the ladies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeramie Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 Thats great! I finally got my wife to start shooting a little! Something I DID NOT expect to ever happen. She doesnt have a problem with me doing it but did not care for guns at all.. It took her out shooting a couple of weeks ago and now she is excited.

John Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 I shoot a youth model . I think a youth is a better fit for the majority of shooters. Add armor or heavy clothes and a youth is great for all folks. I put a 12 LOP from hogue on all my shotguns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
