About 1 year ago my wife expressed interest in learning to shoot. We went to the range with my Marlin Model 60 semi-auto .22. Right out of the box she was very good.
Soon she had her own Mini-14 with open sights and she could outshoot me in no time with it.
For my birthday back in March she bought me one of the "new" Springfield M1's. After listening to me talk about how astoundingly accurate the rifle was she decided she wanted to try it.
Now keep in mind she is very petite so the M1 fits her poorly. I was also concerned that the recoil would be more than she cared for. Well long story short, she loved the M1. "What recoil?" is what I heard. And as far as accuracy, well, she embarrased me and wowed the one other shooter that was there at the range.
I have heard that women inherently shoot better than men. I think it may be true! Anyway it was very cool and very attractive to see my wife blazing away with my classic battle rifle!
What is going to happen when my select fire MAC 10 finally shows up? I may never get my hands on it!!!
