Last night Ken and I celebrated our 3 year anniversary!
We wanted to do something fun and different than what we typically do on a Wednesday night (Fall asleep on the couch watching TV), so we decided to go to Gun World in Lombard. When you go their you can bring your own gun or rent a gun and shoot targets. The only experience I have had with guns is a semi-auto 12 gauge Remington 1187 (shotgun), but last night I got to play with two different ones. I started out with a Henry Golden Boy lever action .22 (riffle) and then a Glock 19 9mm (hand gun).
I am not going to lie, it was unbelievably terrifying to shoot the hand gun. I have never even held one before. Once I got the first shot out of the way, the nervousness slowly went away. The kick back on it was a little bit stronger than I am, so it really didn't matter how well I aimed, once my finger pulled the trigger my wrist would jolt so bad that I missed the target every time. That being said many bulls eyes were hit with the .22! Ha ha. For those of you who don't know why I laugh, a .22 is basically a glorified Beebe gun.
Ken has taken me to shoot clay pidgins before, and it was a great time. But we would always drive out to Davis Junction, IL and unfortunately we were not able to make it out their as much as we would have liked. Now since we can go hit targets 10 minutes away from our house, I can defiantly see this becoming a great hobby.
My goal: Out shoot Ken!
As much as I like shooting clays and targets at night or on weekends - I like to spend the rest of my time setting up HOTSHOTS! K&L does domestic expedited ground and air freight. We have our own fleet of cargo vans, sprinters, straight trucks and tractor trailers, and are open 24/7 so if you need a quote or have a question feel free to contact me at any time!
