Default Heritage range report

Jake and I took 100 rounds to the range to get his first taste of big boy guns. The gun shot pretty good...no malfunctions, solid lockup, no lead shaving.
Sights are the usual oldtime sixgun...channel on top, partridge blade in front. It shot a mite high, but we were just plinking steel at 25 yards. He hit it a few times...he had to hold the gun with the butt on the bench while I supported the frame with my finger, then he'd reach around with his right hand to squeeze the trigger. Still a mite big for him.
All in all, it's worth what I paid and he'll grow into it.

A gun is a tool, no better or no worse than any other tool: an axe, a shovel or anything. A gun is as good or as bad as the man using it. Remember that.

And shepherds we shall be, for Thee, my Lord, for Thee.
Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, that our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command.
So we shall flow a river forth to Thee, and teeming with souls shall it ever be.
In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti.

The biggest pain in the a** you'll probably ever have to deal with watches you from the mirror every morning.

Good judgment comes from experience, and most of that comes from bad judgment.
