I've always been a tomboy, so boys being boys is familiar, and pretty funny! I did find some women's threads. It's a fantastic site! I really like how seasoned shooters like you reach out to us little guys. Thank you! And I will check out MSI!- VickiC

Thanks, Iseries! Good advice. Yep, getting my technique down to where it's automatic will be enough of a challenge. Just got my first gun yesterday! Took it down and "cleaned" it. Darn thing bit me, 3 times! I am cured now of riding the slide! :innocent0- VickiC

Thanks! The BEST thing was how it felt in my hand. Thought about a 9mm, but I don't want to frustrate myself. Then when he showed me how to take it apart? Oh yeah! Frustration factor 0!- VickiC

Just started shooting last year. Yeah .... I know. :rolleyes: So take it easy on me, y'all! Been hangin' at Gilbert's in Rockville, lovin' it. Waiting my 7 days to pick up my first gun, a Ruger Mark IV 22/45 Lite. Of course, a plinker! A girl's gotta know her limitations! Just found MDS...- VickiC
