Quality time. For cinematic effect you might try a reactive target the audience can see. I'm giving you the advice because you're young. That's a great idea!

She needs to cut her hair. She looks like a girl. Montana: queers and steers?  Post a pic of yourself or you doing something. Anything gun related. Attacking a kid says a lot, not that we didn’t already know. But still, damn.

Good for taking the boy shooting but just blasting is building poor habits and a big flinch. There is a target there. I saw it jump and bounce a few times. But you know he was flinching and you commented on closing eyes. As a guy who practiced some bad habits for a long time it's easy with hind sight to see how that might be avoided. Just some food for thought and again, good on you for spending time and taking him shooting different guns. His safe gun handling skills are on point.

What grain bullets? I love the 147's. I couldn't believe it. I thought no way is Sam gonna let me live that down! Been finding 115's the cheapest mostly. Going back to the big town tomorrow and see if they have any more cheap stuff. We shot 130 rounds and Richard found 120 of them. Pretty good.

Work on his stance JC.
Not saying it to bust your chops at all.
Saying it because of who I was long ago.
Teach coach mentor NCO type of schit...
Goes against my nature to not try and improve others performance.
Gotta break bad trends before it gets ingrained 👍🏻
Left foot forward
Right foot back.
Just enough to get oblique and not squared to tgt.
Not over exaggerated stance per that.
Maybe 4 to 6 inches at most right toe behind left toe.
Natural hip wide spacing of feet.
Enough to get body oblique to tgt and allow aiming and pointing over strong arm only.
Body kinda oblique towards target with left side a little more forward than right.
Hard to explain in writing
But easy to do in person, especially with a young person wanting to learn and shoot.
Strong arm orientated towards tgt pointkng and aiming over its plane thru sights from the right side body being rear oblique.
Weak arm very slight bend to allow Strong arm forward thrust.
And a little forward lean from waist up (not over exaggerated )
He needs to get rid of the body squared to target and leaned back mode.
Once he gains muscle memory of body stance it will become 2nd nature.
His striker fired pistol grip per his hands actually ( "glock grip") looks good from what can be seen.
Have to get upclose and personal to really see it and show corrections if needed.
He might not have enough counter opposing force in his weak hand versus his strong hand forward force in his grip and the glock was biting him per the trigger guard.
Dunno....
Wasn't their watching him shoot standing on left side about 3 ft from him.
Or his lower 3 fingers per stong hand on grip were loosening up per more shots than intial ones.
Or might not have enough meat per his weak hand fill8ng in the grip on open left side of it that his strong hand can't cover nor ever will.
Grip is why his shots were going all over and the stance being poor form
But he also doesn't have adult size hands yet.
Dry fire practice will help him with stance, grip, sight picture, trigger squeeze and muscle memory overall.
I have not meant any degradation by this post.
Unlike what can be seen per other's little fuuked up innuendo shots.
Wish my dad was like you back when.
I might have actually liked the prick if he was even 1% the father you are to you kids.
Fuuuk it!!!
This was worth while dropping a post IMO..
JC is a solid Cat and he has a solid family....
And it ain't making Bin a fuuking cent AFAIC me dropping a post.

Those handguns are tricky to shoot especially when you start missing!
The more I practice the more I realize how hard it is to hit chit(all the time)......lol
I did some red dot switcharoo's yesterday afternoon on two Sig's.
(P320 and P226)

Shooting with family members is about as American as it gets.

If you work 40 hrs/wk: at 5% inflation and after 5 years, you need a 28% pay raise or to work 44 more hours (*one full extra week* per month+) to make up the difference.
This is inflation

Dang Rene....thanks a lot!
It's hard for me to teach him anything because I don't know anything about shooting a handgun either.
I have exhausted my expertise at "squeeze the trigger" and "don't close your eyes".
Haha!

Jim,
Really? You made the poor kid shoot a Glock? Probably scarred him for life. Borderline child abuse that’s what that is!

Great post !!!! that's how I've always shot pistols(of all brands, semi or revolver)....I always thought it was called the "Weaver Stance"....but I certainly could be wrong about that. I have 4 Sigs, 9's & 40's, and can shoot lights out to 20 yards with them....love em, no strikers in my Sig family tho.
