Gun Fun - Basic Pistol II

In an added note, I had sent SIL off to her basic pistol class with D'wifes Ruger after giving her the basics of handling and operation of the gun. She loaded one of the mags for practice, and I switched out the loaded one for the empty one. She left with both mags and put the loaded one "in a safe place" pending actually shooting.

Of course you know what "in a safe place" means. Time to panic. I believe that right now I'd sooner find a complete set of dentures for a duck-billed platypus at a garage sale before I'd find another magazine for a Ruger Mk 2 around here.

She found it this morning just before leaving, in a safe place where her dog wouldn't find it.. The shooting part will be outdoors at the instructors property in Fairplay beginning at 10 AM. It's 8:30 and she has 1-1/2 hours to get there. She's been known to spend 30 minutes on the phone explaining that she can't talk any longer because she needs to get going to her next appointment. Google suggests that the drive time is 1 hr, 32 minutes.

She also noted that one of the participants in her basic pistol class already had a CCW and had never fired the gun she brought to the class. This struck both of us as more than a little odd.
