Howdy Folks!
Our CCW instructor requires both classroom instruction and qualification on the shooting range. So today, my wife, pardner and myself went to do the shooting qualification at their range.
The requirement was to score 160 or better out of 200 to qualify. My wife, who just about a week ago had eye surgery, came in with a 188 using her Walther PK 380 semiauto handgun. I managed a 191 with my XDm .40 cal. My pardner turned in the best score of the day with a 196 using his compact Sig .40.
Along with qualifying requirements, we also got practice in proper drawing technique, firing from retention, firing from close quarters and distance shooting. We all returned home happy to have that particular piece of our CCW class complete, despite having already applied for our CCW permits less than a week ago.
With any luck, we'll all soon have those CCW's in hand. Meanwhile, I am perfectly content to open carry as I go about my daily business. Even after I get the permit, I am likely to still OC as the mood strikes me.
Hope everybody has a terrific 4th of July.
Blessings,
