Don't shoot guns!
So apparently I got lazy and haven't blogged in quite some time.
Anyways, just to summarise the last few weeks: work, go out on Fridays, watch some movies, work.
So today, we finally fired real life guns and omg, it's so scary! It was all fun and games during dry practice but when it came to the actual firing, I was so nervous and scared. The loud bangs and the recoil made me shoot all over the place lol.
All of my shots landed upwards but they were all grouped together so the instructor said it was ok. Just that I have to improve my grip because your finger gets really numb and painful after firing so many times. The trigger is damn hard to pull and I needed to use 2 fingers. There's a two step to pulling so my finger was already on the trigger and I needed just a bit more pressure to shoot but I hesitated and waited till people fired before I did. The noise just throws me off man.
Lol, the instructor came over and was like "You scared of the noise right? And the recoil?" and I nodded. Haha, it really is quite scary. It was only 35 rounds but already my finger hurt. It's gonna be 90 rounds tomorrow. :O The good thing is that I think I handled the gun correctly because I don't have any marks on the back of my hand from the recoil.
Wish me luck tomorrow. We're gonna use the laser so hopefully I'll aim better.
