It has continued to sprinkle/rain all morning.

We went back to the shooting range,Calibers,at around 1pm.My first shot was off the paper,my second shot was on the paper,but off target.I haven't been shooting in about 4 years!After the first shock of the recoil & noise,the rest of my shots hit the target.My Firestar does shoot a little low,so I have to aim a little above where I want the shot to go.It was fun!I'm thinking of getting a concealed carry permit.
