When did you first realize it was YOU, not the gun?
The Walther P22 was my first handgun 7 years ago. I use to say it was lots of fun to shoot but not accurate at all. One day I took a friend shooting with me, he was a pretty good shot.
We were at an indoor range shooting paper targets at about twenty feet. I went first and threw out ten rounds all over the place, some not even hitting the 2'x2' target. He sent his target out to the same distance and fired ten rounds out of the same P22, same ammo. He put all 10 into a baseball sized group.
"Oh, now I get it, I suck!"
I'm not a pro by any means these days but since that day I can actually call my shots a group. The next step is to get into competition, where I'm sure the suckage will start all over again!
Anyone else have a similar experiance?
