First Shots

Took the Glock P80 to the range.

Like all factory Glock sights, I shoot low and left until I remember how they work.

My astigmatism makes the front sight slanty looking and that makes me veer off to one side with some sights, but not all sights.  I do better with dots.

But I can figure out what I'm doing wrong.

Getting the G17.1 was pure nostalgia and I remember why I was excited to get a Gen 2 when they came out.  I forgot about how the slide would bite with the pebble texture letting my hand slip just a little bit.

Even got a Lovely Harvey action shot!

She's gotten so much better than when we started shooting, though she still tires quickly with her shoulder.  Gonna be years before those muscles finally get settled.

Also of note is her wandering over and helping a group of first time shooters!  She remembers how she struggled.
