    Proud of my wife today

    Good for you. Wish my wife would come around like that. I have P11 as well. I would second the advice to get a 22 and let her have fun shooting with that. The Keltec suits my needs for pocket carry, but it is not really fun to shoot.

    First deer

    It was about 30 yards and he shot a little high and broke the spine. Had to follow up with another shot. Neither was a gut shot. He is on cloud 9 as well.

    First deer

    My son took this doe yesterday afternoon. My dad passed away in April, and we inherited all of his guns and love of hunting. Although my son has hunted before, this was his first kill. He was using a Winchester 30/30 that was left to my dad and then me by a dear old family and hunting friend...

    Deer hunting greenhorn...advice/tips, please.

    I live in Rogers. We have friends up here who just put corn out on the ground. They don't seem to have any hogs around. Not sure where your mom is , but in most areas around here a 30-30 is fine. My son hunts with that. Of course the .243 will work fine too, but depending on the land you...

    Handgun for my Mom

    Kingpin hit it on the head. My dad passed in April and I went through the same thing. She had a S&W38 but didn't like it. She took classes and rented a couple dozen different models. She settled on a Glock 26. It is what she is comfotable with and can shoot really good. Let her settle on what...

    Ethically what should I do?

    I say keep them since that his her wish. I would treat them as though they were my father's guns that had been given to me. Maybe sell a few that can't be cleaned up or made servicable and keep the rest in honor of the friendly couple.
