Firearms and You #3 (Monday, period 1)

[demons-death.livejournal.com]

As before the class was in the Danger Shop and which was set up in the by now familiar shooting range. The coffee was there on the table by the sign in sheet and another handout.

"Good morning," John said. "Last week, we worked with handguns. This week we're moving on to shotguns. The handout will give you a little of their history and the different types you might want to try.

"One thing in particular about shotguns is the ability they have to use many different kinds of ammunition. For instance, those who took Hunting with me will know that I often use rocksalt rounds against ghosts, but that's just one variation. What I'd like for you to do today is not only try different types of shotguns, but also different types of ammunition.

"As always, I'm here if you have any questions or want advice."

"Good," Tannim said. He gestured at the target and took a small step back. "Wanna give it a shot?"

"Yes," Turtle said with a firm nod, shifting slightly so that she was facing the target better. She held the position so she could remember and return to it after loading the gun and getting it ready, which she did very carefully and tried to remember everything right from the handout because it would be really embarrassing if she screwed this up with Tannim watching.

She resumed her hold on the gun and carefully eyed the target, lining it up, and pulled the trigger.

...Tannim wasn't kidding about the kick, and Turtle leaned back a little and her aiming was completely lost, but at least she'd managed to still knick the top of the target.

"Aw, heck."

Tannim smiled. "Not too bad for the first time. Want to try again?"

Turtle's eyes narrowed at the target. "Yes," she said, because she had a vendetta against that target now. She wasn't going to let it stop her from being non-impressive to the boy she liked. Even if she did have it in good confidence that he totally already though she was cool.

This time, she placed her feet very firmly and prepared for the kick, fought against it as best she could. And it worked, too, because this time she'd gotten the upper right corner of the target. No where near the center still but it was an improvement. Ha! Take that, target!

She lowered the gun and turned back at Tannim with a grin. "Not bad at all, I'd say." She handed the gun over to him. "Your turn now."
