Good Deed for the Day

[DDGator]

Today I took a friend from work down to a local gunshop and helped him buy his first gun.  After the waiting period expires, I am going to take him to shoot it, then do a detailed strip and clean it up for him.  Also helped him pick out proper defensive ammo and a lock box.

Always feels good to help someone else exercise (responsibly) their Second Amendment rights!  

For those interested, I steered him to a store with a few S&W Model 65 police trade-ins in nice condition with the original grips and a 3" tube.  The dealer was firm at $289.  I told my firend that this gun would always be worth $300 and if he ever decided to sell it, I would buy it for that amount.

Way to go, Duane!

Good job, Duane.

I wish I had known someone like you long time ago when I started shooting.

My ears would have had something in them for protection.

They have been ringing ever since.

I didn't  believe in eye protection, but recently  got hit in the head many times from rounds coming out of a P3AT.  No doubt there was some limp wristing going on.

Fortunately, I have glasses and even bought ear/eye protection for my sons-in-law.

I'm taking them out Labor Day to try out a new AR-15  with EOTech scope.

Naturally, they will need to shoot the R9S.
