A few weeks ago I wrote about my wife shooting some clay pigeons. She mentioned that she missed shooting shotgun. Also she talked about how she loved the "feel" of her Dad's Benelli shot gun. So I got in contact with a gun nut buddy of mine that is a gun smith. He makes his living buying and selling guns of all kinds. I bought her a matched pair of Benelli 20 gauge pump action shotguns. She has an older Remington 1100 16 gauge she had "sized" to her so I took it for him to measure and make the new shotguns to match it. I also got a hold of all the Grand Daughters. They have scheduled time at a local range this Sunday afternoon. Women only. LOL
The wife just about deafened me when she opened the box the guns came in. She can squeal like the teenage girls still. LOL She had to shoot them some. Even thought it is rainy this evening she stood in the shed door way with me hand throwing some clays out into the pasture. She sure did not miss anything after the first few throws. She has them both apart on the kitchen table cleaning them and oiling them up to her standards. Also the Grand Daughters all had to come see them too. LOL
I bought her two cases of ammo thinking that would last her awhile. I was wrong, as usual. She just ordered more from my friend. She is going to get it tomorrow.
I might have created a monster!!!!! They are already talking about some summer "skeet" meets they may enter.
