Nice!!! My wife just got her plastic last month. It took an eternity for her to get it back (over 90 days) but she is proud to have it.

Now if i can only get her to carry........ :banghead:

well, she passed with flying colors. She couldn't wait to tell me about all the people in the class. What was really concerning was that she felt the passed 3 people (2 women, 1 man) that had no business shooting a gun. She told me that the instructor actually had to help one lady load her magazine because she was putting the bullets in backwards. :banghead:

She also told me that muzzle control was a big problem with almost half the class. She was really surprised and concerned that everyone was passed.

Neither one of us are by any means IPSA marksmen but I like to think we have very good basic handling skills.

Took mine over two months! :banghead:

Congratulations to you both.

To be honest, I had the same concerns about some of the people in my class as there seemed to be several who were spray and pray and a couple people got bit by the slide because they were holding their off hands to reinforce their wrist.

I understand the concern about it but I think this is the first steps for alot of people who realize after the class the gravity of what they are undertaking and get help/training and practice. Aside from that, it does say "shall not be infringed" and I think there is enough infringements already. So while I'm worried for them, I'm all for them doing it, and learning to do it right.
