Being the first male in the family ever to even HOLD a gun, I suppose that I've been relatively successful from turning them from "complete anti" to "we'll come shooting with you, when we're good and ready".
Unfortunately, my sister (the most against guns and lives on her own) took a joke the wrong way today when she and my mom were joking of finding me a girlfriend, to which I replied, "Will she provide me with cover fire while I'm reloading?" (apologies to whoever coined this... I think it was Tamara ) She immediately went on about how the joke was tasteless, etc., before walking out. Mom was still laughing, however, so it wasn't a complete loss.
I'm so close to getting the parents into shooting... what can I do to just nudge them over to take the plunge into coming to the range with me, instead of having them make excuses?
