Sounds like you had a really nice day with your daughters. Pick out a really nice 1911 for yourself.
Took my daughters to the range today for the first time. After instruction they each picked out a zombie target and took turns with my 94 and 66. It took about 15 minutes for both of them to decide which was their favorite. Surprisingly to me they each chose different guns which is great in that they dont have to wait to take turns but then they started referring to each as "their" gun. I think I managed to loose two revolvers today.
On the plus side we had a blast! I only shot a few rounds myself but had so much fun working with them. Changed my club membership to family for the next few months so we can shoot until they go back to college. Also, since they have laid claim to my guns it gives me a reason to buy a new one! Just so I can shoot with them of course. I'm thinking maybe a 1911 this time?![]()
Hope everyone is having a great week.
Some days you just can't seem to get it right.

It's a good thing that the gun shops have more!
Congrats on what sounds like a great day and sharing quality time with your kids.
"Do not blame Caesar, blame the people of Rome who have so enthusiastically acclaimed and adored him and rejoiced in their loss of freedom and danced in his path and given him triumphal processions. Blame the people who hail him when he speaks in the Forum of the new wonderful good society which shall now be Rome's, interpreted to mean more money, more ease, more security, and more living fatly at the expense of the industrious." -- Marcus Tullius Cicero
Can't think of a better way to lose two guns.
To preserve liberty it is essential that the whole body of people always possess arms and be taught alike, especially when young, how to use them.

Before all else, be armed.

Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun.

To disarm the people is the best and most effectual way to enslave them.

Don't look at it as losing a pair of Guns, but more along the lines of Endowing your daughters with the gifts of self protection and granting you permission to get a 1911.
I love taking my daughter shooting as she gets. Older the times are few and farther in between sounds like you love spending time with your girls and losing two revolvers will be one of thoose good memories you cherish!

They're in college and this is just their first time to the range.
JK glad to see you are getting them into guns.
Always remember to Reduce, Reuse and Recycle your targets
Reduce them to shreds
Reuse shoot them more than once
Recycle whatever is left over

About me - I take very little seriously especially myself.
Ignorance is the lack of knowledge. Stupid is the refusal to do anything about it.
Man oh man, thats probably the best way to lose a couple of guns. Glad your gals enjoy the range and the sport. I was going to say I hope you are having a good week also, but I already know the answer, you not only got to the range, but got their with your children, that makes it a great week!
The only easy day, was yesterday!

Yes sir. Great story!
Know for the silver lining of a great day. Not only did you get to spend quality time with them enjoying something fun..... but know they can "work their way to the two guns" by a down payment.In only ___ payments of ____. That's up to you.
Whose's this "their" ? You can ask them.
If they had to actually go to the store and pick out their favorite they might get a good kick out of it. It's know their baby pet and they have to take care of it. They got to make a responsible decision and take control of sorts. There is something about ownership that adds pride, belonging, and being able to do something as responsible and powerful as shooting. Individualism!Accomplishments like that are great.
