Shooting A Gun.

My Dad and I took some friends out to his shooting range for an afternoon of shooting.

First we had to learn how to shoot a gun.



Then we all took turns with 22's.



We shot at metal silhouettes of small critters like pigs, chicks, and rams. This is called "plinking".



Then papa lit a fuse on a mortar.



KA BOOM it went!



It shot a small pop can filled with concrete waaaaaay up in the air.



There were hand guns too. Sarah was scared of them at first, but I told her it would be lots of fun.



Besides, look at how cool you look.
